Ah, I see.

I'm concerned about Nijimiss now too.

You mean Nijimiss? I'm running the searches for that within Kbin Social, and not the opposite, and tinkering with the VPN, Kbin doesn't seem to have problems with EU IPs (isn't it from Poland? I have the impression I read something on that previously).

Trying to look for random profiles from https://nijimiss.moe/explore on https://kbin.social/search, and Kbin Social throws an error 50x every time.

From what could gather, Nijimiss is a federated platform, so maybe there's an issue with the integration with it, if there's any?

Or perhaps one of the two defederated from the other? If that's the case, then I couldn't find anything about it.

Also dunno if it's relevant, but both without a VPN, being in Brazil, and with a VPN set to Japan, I can access the Nijimiss site, but apparently can't access when the VPN is set to European countries, having tried Norway, Spain, Portugal, Poland and lastly Albania to test if it wasn't an issue with EU countries specifically, no dice in any from Europe.

The game is emulated, so for those that like to collect commercially available ROMs, and going by the topic of this community, it seemed relevant.

 

From the dev's OP:

Repugnant Bounty will be removed from Steam ASAP due to their continuous refusal to accept my bank information and their poor developer experience. If you wanted the game on Steam you should get it immediately.

Steam link:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2652410/Repugnant_Bounty/

The game is emulated and is also on Itchio.

 

From the announcement post:

12 of Retro Classix games (titles developed by Data East and re-published by Ziggurat Interactive) are going to be delisted on April 30th, 2024. The silver lining here is that each of them are discounted -50% until the time of the delisting – here's a link to find them all: https://www.gog.com/promo/retro_classix

And here's a list of the titles:

BAD DUDES VS DRAGONNINJA
Break Thru
Express Raider
Gate of Doom
Heavy Barrel
Joe and Mac: Caveman Ninja
Joe and Mac Returns
Night Slashers
Super Real Darwin
Super Burger Time
Two Crude Dudes
Wizard Fire

Also, all games are sold as emulated arcade titles.

The magazines I follow, they worked before, so I don't think this would apply.

Oh, so that must be why quite a few of the magazines I follow more consistently started appearing empty. Thanks for addressing it, op!

 

I pondered in one of their official social medias if it's an emulated version, and a staffer commented this:

Both DOS and Amiga versions are included in the original Cinemaware Anthology installer.

However, we have upgraded all the DOS versions (now they come with proper sound support!) and offer them as individual installers (per game) for Windows, Linux and MacOS!

Note that the Anthology installer is based on the original pack and doesn't include those upgrades.

Dunno if the emulated files are easily accessible within the game files (can't test now), but a win for emulation!

Haven't played it, but reviews on both GOG and Steam seem to imply it is.

I wish Kbin allowed disabling picking the blurb's body of text X'D

Any with good hardware as long as you can switch to stable and community-made ROMs.

Can't disagree, UI still hurts the eyes, and I've been using it since 2021. "<.<
Still, so far, it appears legit through comments I saw from quite a few developers and users.

(Back at updating it; had a mental block for a while)

Bandcamp, Supraph Online, Ototoy, Uta 573, Steam and GOG's OSTs and Apple's iTunes store have been my to-go options. No DRM, no worries. Just avoid Apple's music subscription, as it is DRM'd.
