/vr/ - Retro Games

How did old devs come together and just make a game like that? In the west, it seems it was a bunch of programmers who put their money into a new business, while the japanese just played it like a normal salary position. What was the indie pc dev scene like for both halves? I know in Japan, devving on the pc was how they did most of their projects, then porting them to arcades or console.

yup. They wrote their music with real instruments first and then someone had to program it.
