RetroGameDev dilettante. Just some old tech guy in Iowa. I mostly like making things, reading about tech/science (especially the Marine Life! feed), and video games. https://github.com/radioation https://www.youtube.com/greggallardo
Getting further and further sidetracked from my raytracer. This time learning #cc65 development for #atari8bitcomputers. I was originally just going to learn about cl65 config files, but got sucked into making a fake #sonicthehedgehog run on an #atari400

A nice and 'new-to-me' Atari 800/XL/XE Sprite Editor. Aside from being a web tool, it does everything I'd want for PMG editing. bocianu.gitlab.io/spred/

#FujiNet is a #retrocomputing #retrogaming community built around a new type of network adapter.
The hardware connects.
The firmware gives a common heart.
The software gives us all something to do.
something for one platform, is for all

It's contingent on all of us wrkng together 2 make it last.

Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.

If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

In the early 20th century, city parents devised a way to give babies fresh air without yards or balconies: the baby cage.

Popular in 1920s–30s London and New York, they were marketed as modern childcare and even supplied by councils.

I needed a tile editor for doing our MS-DOS #gamedev.

I decided to make one that could send its data using a #FujiNet attached to my #PCjr, to my dev system.
