I guess its time to let y'all know about the 40$ printer saga

A while back I found this thing at a thrift store, spent a week trying to restore it and promptly found out why it was only 40$. After that I gave up, disassembled it and I'm now making a better version

more breakcore bot

this track was like 5 times harder than what the bot was supposed to do, but my code is just that good so it had no issue

We were never expecting podium, the goal for this year was just to not get last place. However I was overworked due to school and having to manage the rest of the club and my budget was composed of the spare change in my couch, so I'm disappointed with my results so far

good stuff comes tomorrow

I need to start interacting with hackaday more, it looks like such an awesome community and I definitely have something to contribute

only two weeks until I'm free from the last competition of this school year, this time it's #micromouse

it took our history teacher assigning a project with oddly specific requirements to get me to work on my game again, planning to use it to animate the project

the urge to create doesnt mix well with being broke, why must motors be so expensive, why must ICs be so expensive...

damn it i also fixed my temporary openGL shaders (just rudimentary directional lighting, no shadows or anything) which means now I'm REALLY out of things to stall with

Oh God it works, this means i can't stall working on UI, enemy AI and actually implementing game mechanics anymore
starport UI prototype coming along nicely, had to add multiple modules and weapons so the shipyard would serve an actual purpose, demo soonTM

I'm so glad that old consoles like this aren't truly obsolete
