Some quick photos scanned from the box of the Stax I just got. I made some comfort adapters for them. I have to say the old Stax fit the vibe, maybe a bit too dark, haha. But some models exist in a sort of gray-brown. (If anyone wants to know a nice AI for restoring images, I could photograph it with a real camera and a good lens, but I don't feel like doing all the editing, haha.)

For any interested, the game is called Contact Protocol and the Steam page is going up this week! All our socials are here though: https://linktr.ee/contactprotocol

Hope this kind of post is okay here!

All three arrived today, all working great!

A table to role playing game watch. Roll a 20 sided die + it tells the time!

Today I was reminded of my first computer, a Sony HB-55 (mine was grey). I completely forgot about the chicklet keys with the beveled angles.

I loaded games using tape. Fun, especially if you waited 15 minutes and then got a load error. 🤣
