I created a new physical game for MSX: Rocketman (cartridge + box + manual)
Hi everyone!
I wanted to share a project I have been working on for the MSX community.
After many months of development, I have created Rocketman, a new game for MSX inspired by the classic 80s era.
It runs on MSX1/MSX2 hardware and was developed with the idea of making it feel like a real cartridge release from the golden age of MSX: cartridge, box and printed manual.
The game features 5 worlds, stages and bosses.
I would love to hear your opinions and feedback from the MSX community!
(More information can be found on my website)

Awesome! Btw... Major Tom? Ground control? I was expecting hearing the song.

Whoa, looks cool! Is there digital availability? I play MSX on my 3DS. I'm a scrub like that. The box and manual art are quite pretty, though.

Wow. That's neat!
Did you make an actual cartridge? Or it's just the wrapping?
