FutureVision Labs On Da Slab!
Welcome to the Forge! 🔥
We’re launching this space because we’re building tools that matter—and we want to share the journey with you. After launching The Sprite Alchemist on Itch.io (a 3D-to-2D sprite converter built in a day), we realized we’re onto something bigger. We’re not just making tools; we’re creating workflows that change how developers work.
Right now, we’re deep in development on The Sprite Alchemist - Retro (C64 sprite exports, with NES, SNES, Game Boy, and more coming), and we’ve just announced SEUCK 25—an all-in-one C64 game development kit. The retro game dev scene is thriving, and we want to be part of that conversation.
This newsletter is our way of sharing the wins, the struggles, the code, and the community that makes it all possible.
This is a space for:
Retro game developers who want modern tools for classic platforms
Indie devs exploring new workflows and techniques
Tool builders who understand the grind of creating something from scratch
Anyone who appreciates the intersection of modern tech and retro aesthetics
