Finally starting to replace the copyrighted placeholder sound effects with either effects of my own or stock sound effects. Though, I couldn't find a good enough sound effect that goes well with the sword attack. The player merely thrusts it (like in Zelda 1), and all the sound effects I could find are more fit for a swinging of a sword.
I tried to take a knife-sharpening sound effect and edit it in Audacity to try to make it sound more "SNES-like" (lower the sample rate) and changing it to a 16-bit PCM, but I don't think it turned out to well. I also need to take into account that there is both a wooden sword and a metal sword.

After 30+ years, I just discovered a new secret in the retro SNES game Lufia.
It turns out that if you use cheat code and level up till some unbelievable level, the final boss will actually flee from you 🤣
I'm guessing that the game developers added in the code to flee for the weaker enemies, but I just didn't think that they would add it for the final boss fight 😂
I was already looking forward to beat the final boss easily, but this was too easy 😝
LittleFuse (Zilog's parent company) took the last orders for the #Z80 yesterday.
After 48 years of constant production, #Zilog will no longer produce the Z80 as LittleFuse is unable to keep producing the current Z84Cxxxx series using the 4-micron (4000 nm) CMOS process.
The legendary chip, designed by the legendary Federico Faggin in 1976 was largely responsible for the microcomputer revolution and is still beloved by electronics hobbyists today.
It had one hell of an impact! RIP Z80
I'm surprised nobody picked the aliens option yet. Is it too obvious that nobody wants to pick that, or does everyone believe in The Great Filter hypothesis?
21 years ago today, @ronpaul gave his “Neo-Conned!” speech to Congress
“The modern-day, limited-government movement has been co-opted. The conservatives have failed in their effort to shrink the size of government.”
Who are the neo-cons? Listen below:
it annoys me greatly when people blame the depression of their kids on external things. "climate change", "social media", "the pandemic" and so on.
blame your own "woe is me" attitude and intellectual sloth of seeing the only solution in trading in your agency.
it is the responsibility of a parent to teach and guide their child how to deal with these things in a productive, peaceful way that doesn't force them to kill their light.
don't blame the problems, blame your inability to come up with a better way to deal with them and failing to teach your child to do so.
this one time you can't get away with handing off your duty.
