As a video it might not fully fit #screenshotsaturday 's requirements, I wanted to show off the boot sequence for #SATTERM!
If you switch the sound on, there's even a post beep!

Another SATTERM update! I've been working on the Rocket Silo building and the resource market. While setting your rocket's payload you can see the live cost and payment of the payload itself!

I'm like this 🤏 close to finishing the entire logistics system.
I felt the mission status screen was missing additional info so I added bit flags (top right text just below the window title)

You know what I’ve always had the most fun repairing/upgrading? My GameBoy Color.

Man, fuck ZIF connectors. I managed to kneecap my 3DS doing a USB-C install.

For #ScreenshotSaturday let’s peep behind the curtains to see how Roguecraft DX’s 10x10 rooms made it to #GameBoy
The GameBoy screen is constructed from 8x8 pixel tiles.
(20 → and 18 ↓)
A 10x10 grid of 8x8 pixels could work but it’d be tiny 👀
A 10x10 grid of 16x16 pixels is too large 😕

This is some S-tier wizardry, well done!

Finally busy with some front-end work again for SATTERM by implementing a mission manifest view. A hurricane had also just hit the mission in the screen cap, which would have adverse effects for mining, moving and battling.

While I'm busy developing the weather system for #SATTERM, I thought I'd do a bit of a "Creature Feature" of the units by presenting the humble ATV!
Since it's the quickest and cheapest ground based, it means it's great for scouting!

Ended up redoing my multiplication and division math routines (8 bit and 16 bit) to be a lot faster and now I need to check for bugs since of course everything uses these routines.

I might’ve bought a Nintendo Switch that was on sale, and I might’ve gotten hooked to Animal Crossing…

Riiight, so I've been working on the mission tick logic for SATTERM. I'm trying to fit a single "step" in between each VBlank, however discovered that when it comes to mining, that while the #GameBoy Color is fast enough in double speed mode, the DMG isn't. Time to optimise. 🤷♂️ #gamedev #gbdev

Guh, macOS 26 has been so absolutely awful. Updated to 26.1, and while it fixed a lot of issues, it's now introduced new ones such as Emulicious (that I do debugging in for SATTERM) being incredibly laggy, even after making sure my installed Java is up to date.
