i had a bunch of disparate 3D engines i had written that i’m now unifying into one, while using Entity-Component-System philosophy. finished adding light map generation to it this morning

which brings us somewhat close to present day status of my fantasy 16 bit CPU and VM, and now OS, where i have a preliminary kernel running 4 tasks in parallel. each different colored Hello is a different program running

i then added foreground/background color support per character cell

to begin writing an OS for my fictional 16 bit machine, i took the collection of text functions i wrote and made a scrolling console with them

so proceeding on writing my emulator for a made up gaming console/PC utilizing my made up/fantasy 16 bit CPU, i began adding memory mapped IO devices to it: storage, real time clock, mouse, keyboard
