• MIGHTY DevLog #4 - 28 March 2025

  DevLog #4 – A Question of Hue: Finding the Right Tone for MIGHTY 1990 If there’s one thing that defines MIGHTY 1990 visually, it’s our love for limitations: rigid pixel resolution, a strict 16-color monochromatic palette, and a design that echoes a time when computers beeped more than they clicked. The default hue—a blueish tone—was our starting point. It felt nostalgic and, frankly… kinda cool. Over time, though, as we started posting early screenshots and clips, a few people mentioned they didn’t like the hue—it felt a bit hard to read or gave them mild visual discomfort. It wasn’t overwhelming feedback, but just enough to get us thinking: what if we gave players more control? From Hue Slider to Curated Nostalgia Our first solution was a simple hue shift. You could lean the colors more toward red, green, or yellow. Technically, it worked. But aesthetically? It felt unintentional. The…

• MIGHTY DevLog #3 - 9 March 2025

  Bringing Back the Aesthetic of Classic ‘80s Adventure Games Since MIGHTY 1990 is set in the year 1990, I wanted the game to feel like something that could have actually existed at the time. That meant relying on technology from the 1980s—when adventure games were evolving from text-based interfaces to more visually rich experiences. To capture that feeling, I embraced strict graphical limitations: a low resolution, a carefully chosen 16-color palette, and a UI design that blends text-based interaction with point-and-click elements. In this devlog, I’ll go over why I chose this style, the changes I made to the resolution and fonts, and how these tweaks help balance authenticity with modern usability. The Art Style: Why 16 Colors? Back in the 1980s, many PC adventure games ran on hardware that had severely limited color output. While some games used EGA graphics with 16-color palettes, a…

• MIGHTY DevLog #2 - 24 February 2025

  Picking Up Where We Left Off In our first DevLog, I introduced MIGHTY 1990 as a keyboard-driven adventure game inspired by late ’80s and early ’90s classics. I also touched on why I’m removing pixel hunting and how that might change the way we explore. This time, I want to dive deeper into how the UI is being re-invented, what I’ve borrowed from classic systems like LucasArts’ SCUMM, and why I’m hoping this blend of old and new will offer a smoother experience—without losing that retro charm. Why Pixel Hunting Can Feel Tedious A lot of point-and-click adventures rely on scanning the screen for clickable objects. If you’ve ever used a “highlight hotspots” button, you know the routine: there’s a ton of hidden stuff, and it’s not always fun to find. Sometimes it’s just busywork. Modern games do try to help—either by highlighting everything at once or making objects glow. But at the end of…

• MIGHTY DevLog #01 - 8 February 2025

  Premise: Sorry if this first DevLog might seem a bit long, but I wanted to give a broad overview of what MIGHTY 1990 is all about. There's a lot to cover—its mechanics, inspirations, and why I made certain design choices. In the next DevLogs, I’ll focus on specific aspects in more detail and share how things are shaping up week by week as development progresses. Back to 1990… To Save the Future? Adventure games have come a long way. From the text-based parser games of the early days to the golden era of point-and-click classics, the genre has seen constant evolution. But what if adventure games never abandoned text-based interaction? What if there was a missing link between the old-school text adventures and the point-and-click revolution? That’s the thought that led me to start MIGHTY 1990. It’s a game that feels like it was made in 1990—a mix of text-based adventures and point-and-cli…
