So yes I know I have not been that active but I have been busy creating and some stuff is almost ready to ship out especially for coders!

Two new IDEs that are created for new to advanced devs, if coding scares you then what I have will convince you that itโ€™s not so hard.

More updates later

Real talk to developers.

Due to shortages of ram for the love of god start optimizing your apps, games.

If you canโ€™t then GTFO of development until you understand how to do it.

Am not gate keeping here am just being a realist who programmed since the 80s with extreme memory prices.

Your iPhone Already Has iPhone Fold Software, but Apple Wonโ€™t Let You Use It Recent exploits show iPadOS windows running on an iPhone, hinting at the future of Apple hardware and software alikeโ€”while also possibly revealing its incoming foldable phone experience.

HANDHELD MACBOOK: Hackers poking around in iOS 26 have uncovered something Apple definitely didnโ€™t intend anyone to see: iPhones areโ€”right nowโ€”capable of running a full, fluid desktop experience... Is this the OS the coming โ€œiPhone Foldโ€ will use? Read on @wired.com www.wired.com/story/your-i...

So after a long break from X this has given me time to think the unthinkable and push forward.

But am going to show you guys later as itโ€™s a new tech update for the engine I created..

Give me a few days for a big update/upgrade..

Itโ€™s BIG.

Honestly not only from a mental health perspective but honestly we shouldnโ€™t be using Open-AI at all.

Itโ€™s a hot take I know.

Always nice to take a break from Xs Indie dev environment to here because it's so darn silent here.

It's not a bad thing it's a good thing to do just to detox.

At this stage very much so and i would love to do something similar so at this point in time i may freeze and fork this snapshot and keep building but that's a great point.

This little engine has evolved so much this year,

started in 1998 as a rogue classic project.
Rediscovered this year.
Then updated to create outdoors type of rogue style with lakes and trees.
Added gauntlet elements.
Forked it to 3D ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿผ

Probably will be a fusion of all, Rogue/gauntlet/doom cross

I've been adding some special enemies to my #pico8 game to provide a little bit more of a challenge. These are probably my two favourites so far; an enemy that summons and invulnerable wall of googly eyes, and another that pressures the player by advancing EVERY turn (instead of every 2nd turn).

Alright, from here I'll convert it into the 16-color palette compatible with #beep8 and #pico8!

The gatehouse level is properly dificult now, how many wisps is too many wisps? Still lots of blancing to do and playtesting but the final stretch is stretching ever so slightly less!

First day learning pico8!! Only really gotten the basics of player movement and sprite draw down. Animation is pretty tricky too. I cannot wait to learn how to properly use the music tool.
Any pico8 devs out there pls recommend any good learning materials :))
