some 'party'cles using the #pico8 palette in #swiftplaygrounds

[bbrisbobb @bbrisbobb]

@p01 it's not perfect, has way more code and i'm not really sure of the maths but an homage to @p01 in #swiftui #playgrounds using #8bit pixels

[bbrisbobb @bbrisbobb]

zoomer from an old #pico8 #tweetcart (sorry, lost the originator) ... converted to #swiftui #playgrounds and #8bit pixels ... with a little bit of screen shake in the #wormhole

[bbrisbobb @bbrisbobb]

Moved onto #swift #playgrounds. The #TimelineView animation makes it simple to update a view, canvas or in this case an image bitmap array (that scales). As always like to recreate @guerragames #pico8 #tweetcarts to get started.

Attempted #retrogame remake of #Amiga #SWIV first stage in javascript might be fun. Game-map from https://t.co/Hqvil9eQtY. No sprite sheet out there so working through splitting it all out in #aseprite.

@mattdesl And the #pico8 code in #javascript with my #8Bit library attempt.

[bbrisbobb @bbrisbobb]

Researched for weeks for a simple #javascript animated #GIF encoder. Nothing but old complicated libraries, and then found https://t.co/91A4YHvB6f. Simple to use and understand. Thanks @mattdesl.

@mattdesl My #learningtocode functions to get it working.

@sid_lambert Trying to recreate some of it in the browser ...

Into the deep end with @shiffman's* vectors for my #kickoff2 #LearnToCode. Next up is his seek algorithms, and some football tactics. *caveat: not using #p5js just plain #javascript #html5 #canvas but great videos to keep going back to.

#javascript #html5 #canvas 240 x 180 #pixel2d | #kickoff2 sprites | #pico8 extended palette

... javascript ... canvas ... pixel data array ... pico8 inspired ... back to 1980s basic via @codinghorror tweet ... lunar lander ... now teaching me forty years on

@nicklockwood @twostraws I guess learning at pixel level it is more tangible to me having owned a TRS-80 in 1982, and found pico8. Retro Rampage is the best I have found to date to draw pixels in Swift. And have subscribed to @twostraws.

@nicklockwood Trying to learn Swift via #RetroRampage by @nicklockwood via javascript createImageData recreating #pico8 pixels. Desperately trying to simplify Nick's Tutorial1 down to his bitmap canvas with a simple draw()/update(). Failing. Any pointers please ?

@von_rostock Extra thumbs up for the "Not great, not terrible" reference.
