Hi everyone, I just finished my latest MSX game (which I could not finish on time for the MSXDev, apologies to the organizers!).

- 48KB ROM, and should work on any MSX with 16KB RAM.
- ROM / source code in GitHub: https://github.com/santiontanon/westen
- Small video in Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weFJe88oebA

It's basically an isometric game (in the style of classics like Head over Heels or La Abadia del Crimen), with elements of adventure and some puzzle/riddle solving. I hope you like it, I definitively had lots of fun making it! :)

(and before you ask, @tfh, you absolutely have permission to upload to your site, hahaha)

Great as always, my friend! Eager to look into your code! I'm sure there is a lot to learn from it

Really impressive. I always had curiosity to know how the mechanics of a orthogonal game works.
Will be a blog post about the technical aspects of the game?

Next year MSX dev will be historical with no restrictions. Have you wondered what can be made on MSX 2 or above? I have a ton of ideas.

Thanks both!!

About the blogpost, yes! I have already started writing the blog post, it might take me a few days. But I'll make sure to post the link here when done
