These posts never cease to amaze me. What if this was posted the other way around?
Number of levels required : 15 levels + bosses
Rough length of each level: 5-6 minutes
Deadline : October 15th
Style or Genre required : retro aesthetic, spooky themed, preferably C programming
Compensation : your name and your info appears in all credits of the game and compilation
As a game designer, is this a project you would take seriously?

Depending on where you are really, you live near Boston, Hartford, Albany, or whatever's in New Hampshire or Vermont. Don't sell yourself too short.
Hey, don't forget Rhode Island! There are a couple of us here. I even ran into one at the DMV before.

This is fantastic. It's like you took my favorite parts of Sucker Punch, made it grittier, sped it up, and made an album out of it.

Re: GenMDM Help! Midi / USB not working! (3 replies, posted in Sega)
I experience some strangeness with mine occasionally. You should get two different audio cues when going to use it. The first is when you start the Genesis with just the cart, you will get a single note that holds out for a while. After you hear this note, plug in the USB and you should hear a bunch of the channels build up a chord.
If you don't hear the flourish of notes, grab the necessary programs and see if your teensy shows up before flashing. If it shows up, flash the latest firmware. If it doesn't show up, try using several different USB cords.

Oh I almost forgot, there's also Akiba BEEP which sells and refurbishes stuff like the PC88, Sharp X68000, MSX, and other Japan-exclusive computers. I bought some european demoscene compilation CDs while I was there, haha. http://www.akihabara-beep.com/
I now feel like i wasted my time in Japan...

Re: What headphones are you using? (33 replies, posted in Other Hardware)
I had a pair of Sennheiser HD280s for years and years. They were awesome and I never had issues with them aside from the pads becoming worn after so much use. Now I am currently using ATH m50s because I wanted to mix it up. They are another great set of headphones.

Re: HoustonTracker 2 (TI-82/83/83+/84+) (227 replies, posted in Other Vintage Computers & Consoles)
There is no indicator for current position. I believe it was because it would cause screen refreshes that would be an unesseary strain on the cpu.
You can always use [(-)] to start the song on the current line.

Re: HoustonTracker 2 (TI-82/83/83+/84+) (227 replies, posted in Other Vintage Computers & Consoles)
I wasn't able to find a 1616 or 1620 in store so I swapped one from my 83+ (which works fine). The 83 exhibited the same behavior as before. Contacts were clean along with the rest of the battery compartment. Does any test program exist that would be able to determine if there are issues with the hardware?

No problem. Didn't know if the manual was incorrect or if my IO port and calc were just messed up.
