Working on a Run N Gun for the Wonderswan Color. Starting making "retro" games about 3 years ago and have been really loving it.

After successfully completing my first game, Strife Sisters - a strategy RPG, I decided to try out a new genre. Although I'm having fun working on this style of game, part of me wishes I had stuck with the same genre since I still had a lot of ideas to work with.

Why the wonderswan, if you don't mind me asking?
I have a soft spot for obscure gaming consoles (couldnt tell you why). So, after I made my PC Engine game, I kind of landed on either Wonderswan or PCFX and the Wonderswan had a really awesome tool chain made for it recently* whereas the PCFX still has some way to go for development.
