Eight underrated cyberpunk anime from the Golden Era, a moment when creators pushed boundaries, mixed genres and were unafraid of exploring themes with intensity. Each holds a distinctive place in the evolution of cyberpunk aesthetics, storytelling and world-building.
Demos and a stress-free gameplay session on Ghost Pilots, a 1991 vertical-scrolling shoot ’em up by SNK similar to Capcom’s 19xx shooters and a follow-up to Sky Adventure (1989). It puts players in hydroplanes against Axis forces during World War II.
The lore of Fate, specifically the 1996 demo of this unreleased FPS that was being developed on the BUILD engine — the same behind Duke Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior, Blood, and Redneck Rampage. In text and video!
The story of the Ghostbusters, the franchise that began with the incredible 80s movie and spawned sequels, cartoons, comics, games, mods and, excluding embarrassments like the ridiculous disaster from 2016, has been bringing us joy ever since.
Mega Man Dreams is a playlist where I’ve put together a selection of synthwave songs—evoking nostalgia and/or cyberpunk themes—to accompany scenes from some Mega Man 8-Bit Deathmatch (MM8BDM) matches played by our friend mendHigor.
Attract mode (demo) and gameplay of the arcade version of Alpha Mission II, a SNK’s vertical-scrolling shoot ’em up from 1991 where space fighters defend humanity against hostile alien forces. It’s also the sequel to Alpha Mission (ASO: Armored Scrum Object).
