The Dorlan Wildlife Bureau presents MONSTER MONDAY and would like to bring your attention today on MARAUDER. This spooky abomination has been seen roaming the woods around Kolmar. The Bureau strongly advises against asking it for directions. #thebookofrynn #jrpg #nes #indiegames

I found where Leon Kennedy does his shopping

Hear ye! By decree of King Aldwyn, Dorlan shall henceforth issue official proclamations from the Court and its esteemed ministries. All of the Kingdom's subjects are urged to take heed. The Crown shall accept no complaints from the uninformed! #thebookofrynn #jrpg #nes

I'm also preparing a Kickstarter for January 2027, to finish the game and produce physical NES cartridges, complete with box, manual and foldable map! Follow the campaign here: kickstarter.com/projects/seb…

New here? I've spent the past two years making The Book of Rynn, a new RPG for the original NES, inspired by Dragon Warrior I-IV! The first adventure is complete and playable, with 3 more planned! Free demo: sebotron.itch.io/the-book-of… #retrogames #nes #gamedev #jrpg #indiegames

I posted Rynn on /r/dragonquest today and I just got this comment and it made me feel all warm and fuzzy. 🥲

Should've done that yesterday but just posted a little trailer for our Kickstarter: youtube.com/watch?v=aJBSbaVm… #nes #jrpg #kickstarter #retrogames #indiegames #thebookofrynn

I recently scored a ps1 and ps2 both in perfect working condition and I couldn't be more excited! Also found out my ff7 disks from 1997 still work! Isn't that cool? 😎

I'll be spending the weekend working on Rynn's Kickstarter trailer. Time to try and get decent at video editing I guess 😎 #jrpg #nes #indiegames #gamedev #retrogames

Turns out figuring out how to launch a crowdfunding campaign is almost as much work as making the gosh darn game but I've nearly ironed out all the details so we're gonna kick into next gear for The Book of Rynn very soon! Also, today is my birthday. 😉🎂

I preordered a @TakiUdon_ Super Station One in Jan 2025 and I love it. I have since then started doing ps1 homebrew dev and would prefer testing on a real ps1 so i'm willing to trade it for a ps1 w/ arcstation or xstation pre-installed. Send DM if interested!

Wonder what companies like Nintendo, Sony and Sega are thinking, if anything, about the growing homebrew scene and the fact that more and more people are making games for old consoles.. 🤔 Did senpai notice?

The one and only @johnblueriggs and I are starting an NES "blackbox-style" game empire at @PushStartHQ - we're preparing the launch of our first title: Ninja Garden! Check it out!

I've been having a lot of downtime lately waiting on a few things for Rynn so I've been playing with other toys, such as OpenSNES + Super FX for some Star Fox-like mecha game. Yes/no? (if you say no I'll take it as a yes and keep going!)

Apologies for the radio silence. The demo is ready and I'm working on securing physical production while avoiding Canada-US tariffs before launching into crowdfunding. What a headache 😭 #nesdev #retrogames #nes #PhysicalForever

The Book of Rynn's internal testing for the demo is going well! We're going to be adding more people to the playtest soon with a bunch of fixes and updates! Comment below if you would like to join! #jrpg #nes #gamedev #indiegames #retrogames #thebookofrynn

The Book of Rynn demo is out for internal testing. Expect the grand announcement soon! #nes #jrpg #retrogames #indiegames #thebookofrynn

Our final boss is in! Ofc I'm not gonna show you, but I can't wait for you guys to fight it! Not much longer before we launch the demo! #nes #jrpg #indiegames #retrogrames #gamedev #thebookofrynn

Moved the Astrals tablet collection to the INFO screen. You may also notice new window borders styled like pages of a book, plus a new custom font. We felt it was time for Rynn's UI to develop an identity of its own while preserving the classic NES RPG feel. We hope you like it!
