The alphabet I use on the scrolls in The #ChambersBeneath is shown also on the title screen, and the cover image. I previously used it in the screen decor for #Ossuary (see the scroll at the bottom). Can you guess what it is? #ibmpc #msdos #cga

@lfa I selected Gaming, but really it's a combination of gaming and testing. I develop my games on a modern PC and use DOSBox for day-to-day testing, but I always do a final test on the Book 8088 and HP 100LX.

@HauntedOwlbear Oh I missed that from the original post! In which case, I'd also like to mention another couple of 2023 DOS game that I really enjoyed as a player: Cara Grabs Anitmatter (https://voxel.itch.io/cara-grabs-antimatter) and Demografx (https://coconutpizza.itch.io/demografx).

@HauntedOwlbear I released Barren Planet, a turn-based strategy game for minimal DOS systems (8088, CGA graphics), in April 2023, and an expansion for it later in the year. http://dos.cyningstan.org.uk/downloads/7/barren-planet

I've made a bit of #gamedev progress on my game Barren Planet for #msdos on the #cga #ibmpc this weekend. I've streamlined the AI's unit repair routines. And I've tidied up a couple more scenarios and added them to the campaign, so the campaign is now 50% complete!
