Poor standard palette...

#pixelart #retrogamedev #devhumor
Two color palettes and the caption: Your palette vs the palette she tells you not to worry about. Your palette is the boring standard VGA color palette. The other one the popular Resurrect 64 from lospec.

An early research build of Harmony Tree is now available on itch.io. This release presents CyberVGA, an original MS-DOS rendering engine built from the ground up, demonstrating classical raycasting with textured walls.

Last week was mostly cleaning up a few weeks worth of sins... plus a healthy dose of overengineering. Not sure if I did myself a favor, but at least it was fun.

Improve bug? Yeah, no thanks, Jira... It's already perfect in all its brokenness

What's stopping you from coding like this?

Data on CF card #1 is scrambled. Card #2 is not even readable anymore. Prepared card #3 with FreeDOS but I can't boot from it. Something about invalid VBR signature... oh and my floppy drive stopped working too 😫

Has anyone in my timeline ever used dual monitor mode in Turbo Pascal or Turbo C?

Editing this one took ages, but it’s finally out. It's been a fun start to the project... curious what y'all think.

Week one of my "Back to the Pascal" project is almost done.
Now I "just" have to cut hours of footage into a short, fun video. No clue how long that'll take, but it's coming out by Sunday. One way or another 😅

Can we get browser HTML parsers to support self-closing tags for custom elements?

This,

is nicer than this:

Another one joined the collection. I guess I have more 90s game programming books now than I'll ever need.

Good memories. I don't remember how many times I started over. It took a while to solve it 😅
