Mame homebrew games

(1/2) > >>

councilface:
With the abundance of homebrew programmers out there I find it a little strange that there isnt an abundance of homebrew games developed for mame. Or have I missed them?

TOK:
Maybe I'm misunderstanding your comment, but why make homebrew games to be run via an emulator when you could just make homebrew games that run on a PC? There are hundreds of thousands of those.

Ginsu Victim:
councilface, you misunderstand the purpose of MAME. It is an archive of arcade games, meant to preserve the classics and not so classics, and provide an understanding of how each works. That is the first and most important idea behind MAME. Gameplay comes in a distant second.

Franco B:
/\ what those guys said.


If you do want to run homebrew games you could always configure your controls to control them and then run them from your front end.

M.Lanza:
There were homebrew games developed for the neo geo.
I don't know if they are playable in MAME though.
