Requesting Funding for 90s.dev

  • Walked away from the computer with this page on the screen, came back to find a bunch of colorful bubbles slowly floating over the page. Pressing the touchpad cleared them. It's like an old school screensaver - very nice touch!

  • You could also look into some sort of crowdfunding or kickstarter? Then you can reward backers with special perks or something. Good luck with the raising!

  • Short version: I want to work on 90s.dev, but have no time to. I could do it for $25/hour, using GitHub Sponsors as a way for everyone to chip in a little towards its development. Just an idea.

    The vision of 90s.dev is to be a retro os environment entirely in the web, that's suitable for making all the apps you'd need to make a game, from code editors to sprite editors to animation tools to debuggers. And it's decentralized too, so the apps don't have to be built in, you can import them from anywhere on the web, as long as the app speaks the 90s.dev API. This would recreate a retro development environment similar to what many of us grew up with in the 90s.

  • I got a 404. IS the website still online?

  • Great, you made it to the front page this time. Lol.

    Edit: this isn't a negative comment. I made the comment because I noticed he complained about being down voted a lot previously.

  • Not sure why that thread below got flagged. It's pretty relevant to the topic
