Genius Series Comes To An End!
Posted by Luca on 2021-01-22
Genius 3It's the end of the entire saga! Following the storyline of Daniele Liverani's rock opera, it's now time for the little European prince to finish his dream...among the planets!

The mechanism is the same, the worlds are totally new ones: Genius needs to run through the eight magic toy planets. As Genius. you'll have to follow the key sequences and unlock all the secret caverns of the toy caves, grab the toys, and avoid killer enemies. To add fun to the ride, see if you can discover the undocumented secrets. including secret passages, invisible toys, extra bonus lives, immortality, and much more!

Technically speaking, Genius 3 is a declared improvement of the very first game engine, and a fresh new update of the Release 04 engine from which the author Twinspirit32 has previously released Genius 2 and renewed Genius once; hence, he has caught up the chance to pack up a Release 05 edition both of Genius and Genius 2!

Find all the secrets, see all the caves, let's finish the story in the best ending ever, download and play Genius 3!

The Dreams Come(back) True!
Posted by Luca on 2021-01-05
50Hz FTW!New year, good old friends! The Dreams is back on Plus/4!

In the very first days of 2021, a cool mate of the scene makes his comeback from the C64 side of his skilled code. It's Ninja/The Dreams, who has converted his own entry ranked 11th in the ECM Mode Demoeffect Competition.
Big spoiler, as it's called 50Hz FTW!, the demo features a double Chessboard with RGB crossing effect, running over a tic-toc bouncing text displayed in Bump Mapping, with a fantastic 4x tune composed by Degauss/TEK...and (don't read further if you hate spoilers) all this stuff moves within a single PAL frame! Should be added that the whole show runs in ECM graphic mode? ;)

Our hopes fly to more and more Plus/4 releases from The Dreams!
