@neauoire

Excellent work! :D

I first saw this style of game interface in the 1980's using a ZXSpectrum. :D

I can see how this fits well with your low-power computing approach. :D

@neauoire I've been thinking about this lately, referring to it as the "playdead effect" (still / slow-moving airborne particles as a cheap way to add focal depth).

The petunia bowl feeds a random part of Oquonie's program to the soundcard, it plays some fun 8-bit sounds.

@neauoire this is making me wonder if anyone out there could "hear" gur difference between machine code for different CPUs
"Ah yes, sounds like MIPS"

@neauoire I think I would die if this happens suddenly

Finishing up the last details in optimizing Oquonie, like merging redraws, fun stuff!

@neauoire seeing your progress motivated me to get my head around uxn/tal. Very impressed with how it all works.

@neauoire @klardotsh going with windy. Stuck at the cabin until the seas drop enough to let us make for Sidney. It's a shame, really ;-)

Updated beetbug to work as a #uxn REPL, it has a little assembler that will compile the program so you can step through it. It also has a full cli mode which does away with the UI altogether.

The uxn instance is entirely virtualized and is implemented as VM within uxn itself.

Just realized, after using the pinebook on solar panels for two years.. that I could charge it via its USB-C port. 🤦‍♀️

I shouldn't have been charging it through the inverter.

@neauoire I've been eyeing those for quite a while - how have you found it?

@neauoire last year I realized (after 11 years) that I couldn't boot from the usb port just because it was disabled in the bios ^^ (edit: usb 3)

@neauoire do you have the physical device? Or are you just using the emulator? I'm thinking of getting one. They are so cute! And looks like a fun, open development platform.

welp, my fancy transitions with color cycling won't work on the playdate, I need a better plan.

Started adding SFX to Oquonie, even added a bit of stereo panning depending on where the character is located in the scene. It's still very rough-

The little bird-character will be more lightfooted so it'll go tic-tic-tic when it walks around

Updated Left to open binary files as hexadecimal text, so I don't have to rely on the hex editor whenever I need to only grab an asset in a spritesheet.

Left is currently 11kb.
