Acorn Electron / BBC Micro - Chuckulus - WIP
Maybe I'll try a thread instead of quote posting stuff !.....
Fixed the flashing egg and bouncing off ladders bugs - thankfully quite simple stuff....
Time for some proper level design, as some are just too damn hard/impossible (even without the DUCK !) 🙄

The flu still lingers, but just started again with Chuckulus.... Found a bug that I swear wasn't there when I got ill. What's the 'GO!' bubble doing over there ??! 🙄

Put in a key control set option, so you can choose between 'ZX:/ RETURN' and '<>AZ SPACE' to control Harry ! Which would you choose?

Now we're thinking with... uh... whatever this is.

OK! 51 balls *but* single buffered 8x8- Moving to 9x9's gonna cost some cycles! Can only get to 24 with double buffering, long way to go.
This is pretty fun! Cheers for pulling me back into the game @0xc0de.bsky.social and @snuggsy187.bsky.social

Uh... That wasn't what I was aiming for, but still looks neat. (Yes yes this is taking far too long! :D )

Always enjoy a little physics simulation, especially having stuff bounce around randomly, very mesmerising 😎 #acornelectron

Random film of the night - Ad Astra

I nearly turned it off the first time I saw it when the gibbon does an explosive decompression from (presumably) 1 atmosphere....

No change this time ! 🤔

Most people know that the random junk pixels printed around the edges of various Acorn Electron games are sections of game code 'hidden' in screen memory. But not all of it is actually code, because that would lead to an uneven border, so some of the junk characters are just... junk!

Today is #ChuckPeddleDay – a celebration of the brilliant mind behind the 6502!
So dig out your 6502 computers, power them up, dust them off, or just show them with pride.
Whether it’s a Commodore, Apple, Atari, BBC Micro or any homebrew project – today we honor the chip that started it all. 🚀🖥️✨
