We have only just started the MRC Bounce Challenge and already have received two entries: Jone Jumpy by Jonemaan and, as of now, Bounce by Sonic.
Flyguille just posted a message on the MSX Resource Center forums to let us know he has completed translating the English manual of his new MSX Operating System MNBIOS. If you'd like to give MNBIOS a go, you can Download MNBIOS demo 2 here.
A while ago Thom Zwagers let us know about an MSX in the Media occurance we have just added to the list of nominees.
3D Cube by MicroTech
Marco Rossin sent us a nice 3D vectorgraphics demo called '3D Cube'. After asking some questions on L80 in our forums MicroTech decided to share their in-development project with the MSX community. As of today you can find it in our ever growing downloads database.
Hans Otten sent us a scan of the article on the MSX Game Reader that was published in the july/august edition of Computer Totaal. It is added to the list of nominees of the MSX in he Media Challenge.
Did you get or spot MSX in the media as well?
On July 18th, 2004, we started the MSX Resource Center Bounce Challenge. Until October 11th, 2004, you can all send your submissions to bounce@msx.org
We thought the head of the jury for this challenge really has to know how to bounce around.
This is a record. Within 24 hours after we started the MRC Bounce Challenge we received the first submission: Jone Jumpy. Its creator, Jonemaan, made this entry in MSX BASIC and it's a true oneliner!
Retro PC Game Music have again updated their playlists. This time, Space Manbow was added. You can listen to this streaming radio station at http://gyusyabu.ddo.jp:8000/. Most popular mediaplayers support streaming radio.
