THREAD: One thing that is fascinating about music using the SID chip on the Commodore 64 is that often musicians would look at different ways of getting sounds out of it.
One would be to call their music players multiple times a frame, meaning different sounds possible.
Here's some examples (1)

Loaded up Metal Warrior 2 on the emulator this evening. Got reminded of it after playing Metroid Prime 4.
The MW series remains one of my favourites on the C64. Still can’t believe they were free at the time.

I've recovered a cache of documents and videos from the pre-production phase of Project Apollo, a canceled Batman game Monolith worked on for Warner Bros.
The materials, from 4/2009 to 1/2010, were in deleted sectors of a HDD used at a game company.

@spiteri316.bsky.social Listened to the latest Metroid podcast. Sadly the questions asked by the journalist for the article are about standard for a Japanese media outlet. I work at a major newspaper in Japan and it’s about standard. Man I could send you some naff examples.

@doominalcross.bsky.social Shoutout for highlighting the Volt Forge music on the podcast when outside near those lightning receivers. I left myself in morphball mode while in the tube just listening to that.

The Metroid series continues to impress me. Thoroughly absorbed in Prime 4. Loading times on the Switch 1 are a little slow but sometimes the break is worth it.

Almost completed Metroid Prime 1. First time playing through. Defeated the Omega Pirate after a bit of research.
The atmosphere of the game is incredible. Shame I missed it in the GameCube days.
Can’t wait for 4 on Thursday!

@spiteri316.bsky.social I just listened to the newest Omega podcast. I think you and Doom did a great job covering what I thought was an important story. Thank you for talking about it.
I despise power harassment with a passion and hope it gets sorted, wherever the truth.

@spiteri316.bsky.social Wanted to shout you out for mentioning ReBoot. Big part of my childhood! Awesome to hear you talk about it.
Really enjoying the podcast. It got me into the Metroid series. Prime remastered is my first and it’s amazing.

The other Metroid games look great too, though Dread was just too fast-paced for me. I love the story and world of these games though.

Very late to the game, but recently gave Metroid Prime a try after some recommendations. Woah. Really sucks you in. Not a shooter game fan but the atmosphere of the game is soooop good.

Bugger. Switch 2 version with English will cost an extra 20,000 yen in Japan. I guess to deter scalpers amid the weak yen. Still, a bit annoying.

I have the pleasure of working on the front page of tomorrow’s newspaper today.
Gee, I wonder what I will have to put on there…
It’s exactly why I block out the news on my days off. For my sanity.
