I took a first stab at isometric maps on a 386. The new direction definitely makes things more challenging... and I'm not sure yet if I can pull it off.

This week's video is part Q&A, part devlog, and part "wait… what do I actually wanna build?"

Last week I overengineered things, this week I paid for it… in frames per second

Last week was mostly cleaning up a few weeks worth of sins... plus a healthy dose of overengineering. Not sure if I did myself a favor, but at least it was fun.

How many off-by-one errors can I make in a week? Yes

Editing this one took ages, but it’s finally out. It's been a fun start to the project... curious what y'all think.

Week one of my "Back to the Pascal" project is almost done.
Now I "just" have to cut hours of footage into a short, fun video. No clue how long that'll take, but it's coming out by Sunday. One way or another 😅

I'm starting a new project: Rebuilding a game I wanted to make as a kid, back when I had no idea what I was doing.
In attempt to finish my Pac-Man clone I've been researching sprite collision and bounding in #Z80 #assembly on the #AgonLight2 and I've finally managed to get it working.
I can now move this code into the main game and maybe start looking at getting some actual game play working 😀
New release of my speccydev devcontainer today:
- Updated Boriel BASIC to newest version
- Added the PASTA/80 PASCAL compiler
- Add hdfmonkey for manipulating Spectrum Next sd cards

Another one joined the collection. I guess I have more 90s game programming books now than I'll ever need.
Hey, it's been awhile since I've tinkered with my #Pico8 game. It's a #shmup, but has some constraints. Bullets aren't cheap, you know. I'll try to get this up on the Lexaloffle BBS soon, elsewhere ... someday. #GameDev #RetroGameDev #ScreenshotSaturday
Latest addition to the library... the smell, though 😬
Back to making silly pumpkin sprite kid. Sweet chip tune not mine.
Fellow DOS/retro game devs: What are must-reads for 386-era game development? I've got Abrash's Black Book, but I'd love recommendations on more general game dev topics from that period.
My ZX Spectrum devcontainer has reached v1.0! Featuring pasmo v0.5.3, sjasmplus v1.21.0, zmakebas v1.2b, z88dk v2.3, fuse-utils v1.4.3, Boriel BASIC v1.18.2, skoolkit v9.6 and much more.
All the tools you need to develop for Sinclair machines in BASIC, assembly or C, in one place.
