I’ve been on a retro gaming kick, and studying the Sega Saturn the last month or so. I came across this game Steamgear Mash. I’ve been wanting to 3d model characters with simple geometry to practice before jumping into my own characters that I wrote up recently.
Steamgear Mash was released in 1995 for the Sega Saturn (I’ve tested it on emulation, ebay has been playing with vintage prices these days) The game is a 3/4 isometric puzzle/action game. Simple arcade fun. (second image in slideshow below is of isometric view, how it would look if I tried to recreate the game exactly like the orginal)
I think physical media/content should make a come back. People would appreciate the art/tech efforts of developers and creators more with something to hold and keep in good condition. But if digitizing all content is a better way to avoid over using the earth’s resources, then it’s best to go digital obviously.
