You know what's weird? When i recall these old games, i rarely remember the horrendous framerate. The only games where i do remember slideshow framerates were 8bit 3d games. Incentive Software titles like Driller or Dark Side etc... But from the next gen, Amiga and 286 era, my brain kinda deleted the framerate info from the memories. I played games like LHX, F29 Retaliator and Chuck Yeager's Air Combat a lot, and i definitely do not remember bad framerates, but i guess they had to have them as well... I know Retaliator was considered FAST back then.
Thank you! - other games/projects you mean? Not exactly, I have some early thoughts on other projects - but I want to give most of my focus to Thunder Helix. .. I have been experimenting with ray-tracing lately though. I wondered if I could make a late 90s style renderer that you could make PS1 era videos with - rather than using modern renderers which are "too good" (kind of a parallel with how I needed to make my own tech to make Thunder Helix look so old)
