Came across another one of those recent N64 wizards doing crazy things on the N64. This time it's Elden Ring and includes a playable demo build. This uses the new Pyrite 64 engine for making homebrew N64 games.

Can't say abt the physics, but man this looks astonishing considering it is the 64. Might try the demo at some point on the original hardware.

It's always nice to see a new game on old hardware.

Imagine if such talent had been available when the system was new...

I'm unsure if soulslike mechanics translate very well to that system particularly, but I'm yet to figure out. Other than that, this was pretty much possible because of Pyrite (that is, a "meta" development)... it's unlikely that a single developer would've been able to make anything closer to that demo from scratch back in the days.
