Familiars Updated!!!

new items found in dungeons! hoard gems and wager them against other players! dungeon difficulty adjustments! and rebalancing of certain familiars, including a (VERY fun imho) new attack for Daemon!

improving the familiars dungeon experience. I noticed some players really like to collect gems in the overworld, which prevents them from participating in dungeons, which take away all their gems upon entry. So I'm splitting up the concept of gems from keys to make up for that. Does that make sense?

first bit of gba dev, wanted to see if I could display a photograph nicely with a 16 color palette and it seems like the answer is yes! So Stallone gets to enjoy historic barn today #gamedev #homebrew

variables are deallocated the instant they are no longer referenced anymore. This chain of operations only ends up being 1 opcode, since a,b,c,d,e,f all get assigned to the same memory location, and the value is already there

array length is known at compile time. I'll have to figure out how slices of unknown length will work later on
November 7, 2024 at 8:44 AM
macro parameters are passed by reference! will have to figure out how to pass by value later

if you want to break out of a loop u gotta label it for now. Also yeah arithmetic is prefix notation for now cuz I didnt want to write operator precedence yet

i didnt want to write a lexer so tokens are all space separated for now. whatever
