HyperCard is back baby

.

(sorry it's not actually back. i don't want to give you false hope)

@hikari Sigh. I miss HyperCard. I keep thinking it would be fun to make an Xaw version of it.

@hikari They brought Steve Jobs on stage so he can play a solid, uninterrupted 10 minutes of Marathon at the Apple conference.

@hikari I was staring at this like “guys, that was pre-rendered??”

@0xabad1dea (it's the modern remake with real-time rendering, of course)

@hikari interesting how it still looks to be the same blomby plasticine 90s cgi aesthetic

… blomby is definitely a retropals word and yet I’m confident it’s clear here 😂

@0xabad1dea @hikari Yeah but it was prerendered on a (bunch of) Mac(s)!

@hikari they had to find a game that runs on Mac OS that people actually wanted to play. please understand

@hikari ads for old people

@hikari

@hikari oh, hard to tell as Cyan releases a Myst remake every year. 😏

@hikari Myst is timeless 💕

@quoll @hikari ok ok but advertising the powerfulness of a chip with MYST? Tell me this isnt true?

@alberich @quoll @hikari this is the rerelease which uses realtime raytracing

@hikari hey, that 8-bit color is really graphics-intensive! on an IBM PC
