Streamer launches retro SNES Metroid-like playthrough
Original: Draculo is now streaming!! Come and join the fun!!! A Metroid-like SNES adventure I never could defeat #retro #gaming #f
A streamer on a self-hosted Owncast server has begun streaming Draculo, a Metroid-like adventure game in the style of a SNES title they say they were never able to beat. The announcement went out with retro gaming, Linux and free-software hashtags, inviting viewers to join the session live. It is a small, niche retro-gaming event drawing modest attention.
Why now: Nostalgic retro gaming and self-hosted, open-source streaming both have dedicated enthusiast communities
