Well, this works! Just messing around with #PixelVision8 running on @OnDeck. Need to install my dev tools so I can clean this up but once I find time to get back to coding, I’ll make a Steam OS build! #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while, so I finally sat down & wrote a Basic interpreter for #P64. Started playing around with Antlr so I can add support for more languages over time. I’m calling this PixelBasic since I had to customize it to run in #PixelVision8 #gamedev

Just dropped this in and moved the tilemap renderer into the right position. Fits like a glove. Looks like I have my work cut out for me this weekend wiring up all this UI & get the tools in. #screenshotsaturday #pixelvision8 #gamedev

The next version of #PixelVision8, called P64, has a new shared memory architecture like a real console. You’ll have to increase the hardware’s memory in order to add more files. Playing around with adding a lot of sound samples to an example project. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

Anyone out there with experience writing a NES style tracker, preferably in C#? Looking to hire someone to help finish #PixelVision8’s new music tools. I have a good idea of the scope & reqs but don’t know enough to build it myself. This would be a paying gig - DMs Open #GameDev
I’ve been talking about doing version of Sim City for a while now in the #PixelVision8 discord. @jm_traslogan made this mock up of one using @castpixel’s PV8 color palette. If I wasn’t hard at working getting #P64 ready, I’d start making this right now! #screenshotsaturday

One step closer to getting #PixelVision8 games running in the browser again. I made some improvements to the new CLI, called #P64, and once I get this cleaned up, I think I’ll finally be able to release this by the end of week! #gamedev
Looks like #PixelVision8 works on the web again. Finally got Unity to do a WebGL build running the latest code I plan on releasing as part of the new CLI. Still a few more things to implement, like controls & sound, but assuming everything keeps working, this is looking good!

Finally migrated #PixelVision8’s Loading & Error screens over to #P64. Debating adding the boot animation in next. The loader also knows what language you are loading a game in which is useful for when you have both C# and Lua code in the same project like the examples. #GameDev
I’m getting ready to release a new CLI for making #PixelVision8 games. This is a big departure from how things used to work in the past. Right now I’m calling it #P64. Thinking of releasing it as is to avoid confusion. Curious what people think I should do for this next release:
PixelVision8 is a mature and capable fantasy console by Jesse Freeman. If you like PICO-8 and Tic-80, you will love PV8.

Working on dynamically registering #PixelVision8 GameChip APIs with the Lua VM via C# reflection. This will make it easier to add more languages later on. Still working out the bugs. Looks like some APIs are being called multiple times. 😬#screenshotsaturday #gamedev #glitchart
This new #PixelVision8 memory map is starting to shape up. Still cleaning up a few things but each chip now registers its memory allocation and I am starting to track the total memory. Hard to keep memory low with support for 256 colors per pixel. #screenshotsaturday

Ok, think I found a fix so the latest build of #PixelVision8 boots again on Win and Mac. Still need to test on Linux. Had to remove single app build but I’ll get that working again tomorrow. Thought I found a fix on Win to not have the command prompt visible but it’s still there.
And we’re back! GitHub actions are a total black box. I never get them right on the first try. So don’t freak out, #PixelVision8 v2 doesn’t have the tools built in anymore so I can speed up development. Give me a week or 2 & I’ll sort out all the little inconsistencies. #gamedev

Here goes a years worth of work on #PixelVision8. Just pushed everything to GitHub and going to make sure the build scripts work correctly. I expect there to be some frantic changes over the next hour or two. Best if you don’t try to check anything out right now :) #gamedev

Going to push all the other #PixelVision8 code to GitHub over the next few days. There’s a lot to share including some new docs and APIs. It’s going to be a bit jarring until I can get everything out and release the new tutorials and example games.
Slowly rolling out all the #PixelVision8 v2 stuff I’ve been working on for the past few months. There’s a heavy focus on using external editors which is what I wanted to do from the beginning. I’ve added a new dotnet template to the GitHub repo https://t.co/LsM5kgvzXh #GameDev
While cleaning up #SpaceStationEight I decided to build simple menu system to manage switching between different scenes. My goal is to have a set of tutorials that walk through making an entire game in #PixelVision8. Not many tutorials focus on game #UX so I made this. #gamdev
