Tomb Raider I-III Remastered in c/[email protected]

Haven't seen this everywhere, but RPS say:

The original Tomb Raider was a relatively early 3D game, created in an era before analogue sticks, and it's a little awkward to control in modern hands. The remasters include the ability to switch back and forth between "classic and modern joystick control schemes", as well as camera lock-on

Just to be clear, Visual Studio does not officially run on anything other than Windows.

However, as the linked blog post indicates, since this is .NET based you can use any IDE or code editor you like that has support, such as Visual Studio Code, or JetBrains Rider, which are available for Linux and macOS.

The game engine's own editor is also Windows only and presumably if that is .NET based then one day it might be cross platform if the community makes it happen. That doesn't really relate to Visual Studio though.

I can sympathise.

Thanks, and thanks for posting all these! Definitely a highlight of my feed.

Any chance of reverting the date format?

I find it hard to read generally in my feed since it's shorter and just numbers
but also, the old format is unambiguous; the new format is literally only used in the USA.

This is from one of my all time top game soundtracks.

It may not be the most consistent soundtrack overall (e.g. compared with other Square works of the time) but there are plenty of great tracks and the highs are so high!

It was fundamentally broken in 64-bit Windows for a long time due to a practically unfindable bug, so they just removed it once that was a mainstream option (Vista onwards).

I think it's been fixed or recreated now though?

Full Tilt! was first published in 1995, comfortably before the inclusion of the Space Cadet table in Windows, which iirc was either '98 or Plus! for '95. I'm confident it wasn't in any of the vanilla releases of Win 95.
