Does anybody know what happened to “Neo Twinbee”?

I could’ve sworn I heard Neo Twinbee being announced •in development• on some fan Konami server in 2025. They said the fan Twinbee game was going to release in like December 2025. October of 2026, and I still can’t find any recent news about it. It’s either I’m not searching hard enough or… that Twinbee game was probably a rumor and it makes me even more sad that the sight of a Modern Twinbee Game would be delayed this long. Does the name sound familiar to you? Am I the only who waited for the game to come out? Can’t find anything on Konami’s page about a Twinbee revival nor anything fan made about a revival either. Maybe it’s in their game catalog and it’s taking long to develop?

Idk… I just got my hopes up that the 40TH anniversary of Twinbee last year would finally bring a new Twinbee game back into the spotlight. (I really can’t find anything).

I’ll still have high hopes about it anyways.

I feel like the last time Twinbee Loop was even considered as a game to be released was … 2022-2025. It was announced in Tokyo, or at least I thought the mysteries surrounding that game would make even more demand for it to come out. Maybe not. >!Don’t tell me Twinbee and Otomeidus are going to share the same fate now. 🥀!<

Finally playing the Nichest of the Niche on the PC Engine after so long. (This is not a self promo post).

[⚠️ No, I am NOT trying to self promote. I purely just wanted to record my experiences so I didn’t forget about it. ⚠️]

I really like playing PC Engine shumps. The problem is… I had a big problem getting some of my console’s inputs and outputs to work last year on different devices, (almost like every year), especially the ever so complex PC Engine CD and its wall of different RAM customization. Don’t get me wrong it’s an amazing console, the PC Engine CD-ROM2, but. . . With all things considered with how much I actually know about technology even a person like me for years, struggled how to get this to truly work for any purpose. It should be rather obvious that I struggled to get the PC Engine CD to work more than my Sega Genesis, because there is no CD-DA accessory tied to the Mega Drive.

To be honest with you all, I love Terra Cresta 2 as well. The music, the gameplay, the formulas. Reminded me of the day I was surprised by seeing how dedicated people really are to squeeze everything out of those 6 lovely channels. (Or as the game calls it, 1-6ch).

I am also… kind of mediocre at it. If I can get some tips on how to play PC Engine shumps better I would be happy to hear some. Now that… the console actually works.

Speaking of which, does anyone know what different RAM type I would to run Puyo Puyo 1&2 CD? 😅

SXO is currently under construction 🚧

(Yes this is Konami related)
I think someone new who likes to discover forgotten AUs has already showed part of my SXO work to this community. (Yes I have worked on developing this to be the most structured version of the AU for years to come). It stands for Sonic X Otomeidus. Overtime for me it became a AU for all forgotten game characters and anime character’s stories to finally live under the oath of more mainstream or more well established franchises. To write a hypothetical less well known character person back into the light of my writing each with different personalities or perspectives is kind of intriguing. Since there is so much out there to find and see, I doubt that I’ve thought about covering every forgotten game and anime I come across in some niche part of town. That’d just be humanly exhausting. But… we do have something special to showcase.

Before that I will add some context, Otomeidus is a shump that consists of girls and one boy determined to put an end to the never ending broken friendship caused by the olden Bacterion race. This war that they caused upon all related to the Vic Viper long ago, spilt Bacterions and Gradians far away from each other. Even considered each other enemies to the point where, not much empathy or sympathy is shown for anyone on the enemy side. If they died, if they were defeated, perished, damaged—the thought of needing to defeat one side entirely to achieve long peace again and again has almost eliminated real feelings for each other. This forgotten gem had two games, Otomeidus G and Otomeidus Excellent.

Until however that’s where my AU comes in. [Before the 59th century I might add].

You might hear me or someone else talk about it a lot in the first place because Before Sonic X Otomeidus—There was a final episode in one of my other AUs that promised, “The confirmation of two sides coming together just to protect others from a terrible fate would cause a break in the cycle and save the future.” And so it saved… multiple futures. Created this AU that’s currently under a new stage of development.

Please, go to this channel for any future information or news about the AU’s new production. Excited to finally let this become public. If I were to post videos about it too, I’ll let you all know. I just didn’t want to let almost 3 years worth of writing go to waste. 😅
