I've also settled on Fomapan. I mostly tend to use 200 or 400, but I've also found that pushing the 400 to 1600 to do some night time city shooting is a really fun time.

That's very cool. I'm using my own game engine for my current project, and it's being built with my next project in mind too - and mostly because at the time I began the project, I couldn't find any pixel-art centred retro engines that fit my needs. Glad to see there's one more around now. Not sure if I'll open source my engine as it's kinda built-for-purpose but, I've been thinking about it from the start regardless.

Leisure Suit Larry and Police Quest. Mostly because it was the first two I ever got copies of and I'd never seen anything like it, but there was another thing about them:

Whatever they may be as we look back on them in retrospect (neither have stood up spectacularly well in terms of their politics), both games were set in the 'real' world. While I'd played a ton of fantasy games in make-believe worlds, something that made me feel like the world was something I could relate to socially helped immensely. To this day I TEND to prefer "real-world" games, set in the modern day or the past. That's probably in part due to these two games.
