an incredibly difficult game, but SO well-made... in 1995 of course it was a swan song for the console, its tidbits and tricks we all found and exploited by then...

    Arguing such thing is "open source" is misleading as 1/ contributors can hardly call themselves "authors" of this code 2/ nobody can demonstrate that the plagiarizing engine they used did not plagiarize proprietary source code or source code published under an incompatible license.

    as in "you cannot claim a room is clean if you have never been in it, haven't built it, and cannot even know what's in it"

    It is fast-food that works like the replicator in Star Trek: you can virtually ask it to spit out anything you like... but the taste won't be there (and the nutritional, health and environmental properties will be the ones of fast-food).

    Also by using it you seem to quickly lose capacity to discern good from bad ingredients, and the ability to even cook...

    all the MegaMan on the NES

    The Thunderforce III and IV, the 3 (yes, three, including the experimental soundtrack of the third!) Streets of Rage on the MegaDrive Anything Nobuo Uematsu on the SNES (Final Fantasy IV, V, VI, Chrono Trigger, Actraiser, etc.) and U.N Squadron

    Soldier Blade and Final Soldier (and Air Zonk!) on the PCEngine (that a small part of the world calls TG16 for some reason?!)

    Anyone brewing kombucha would be more than happy to share some scoby with you! they usually have too much, and several backups in the fridge/freezer etc.. It's also so easy to divide: you just grab it with your bare (washed, thotoughly rinsed) hands, tear it like a piece of strong cardboard, and any portion would do. you then give it with a bit of the liquid in a bag or jar, and together they will start a culture anywhere...

    If i were you I would find a way to call for people around where you live and find one such person, rather than buying anything from a store or such. local auction/second hand sites could be a great place to search. Scobys are often listed for free or just a few bucks....

    Also there is something immensely cool when you think of it: you got it from someone, who got it from someone, who... etc. maybe your Scoby is much much older than you?

    learn how to quickly chop some veggies with tofu (or tempeh), marinate all in something tasty (whatever you have, combined or not: with soy sauce with mustard with sirup with vinegar with chili with garlic etc. experiment, see what you have as local ingredients, tastes in spices, etc. ), cover in thin amount of nice oil and shove in the oven (in a closed dish that you may chose to open towards the end to get more to the crunchy side..). 180deg then lower over time.... for a long time... (then let cool down in turned off oven if you have time..)

    Learn how to make delicious hummus an any sort of lacto-fermented (in salty brine) veggies. you'll be forever happy!

    If you're in for some crafts (like building a simple incubator or reuse a yogurt machine), making tempeh is relatively easy and results can be so damn delicious! (same applies to a lot of fermented stuff actually..)
