For me, any mention of Java games brings back a ton of memories. Yes, it is a really interesting era. Developers used many tricks and tweaks to optimize games. The game you mentioned looks more like a NES game than a Java game.

I will shout about this everywhere I can 😄

Yes, but after some time, hopefully in a couple of months

I will definitely finish this port, it’s my ode to this game, I like it too much to abandon it

It’s okay, I’m just crazy
