Oh well, I believe the MSX scene did such things even though there were no actual games (I'm no MSX owner, though). 😀
The MoonSound, for example, was made by hobbyists in the mid-90s, long after the MSX platform was considered dead.
That nifty little card was based around an OPL4 chip and got some interesting tracker programs.
Personally, I find the idea of ab0tj interesting.
There's something to it having a chiptune player/composer running
on old PCs running DOS, CP/M or even GEM/Win1.x. 😉

Edit: The Covox Sound Master did also use a AY-3-8910/AY8930 PSG.
Maybe "we" can make the new design compatible to that ?
So we could have at least a little game support. 😀
