I'm trying to keep compile times under control in my N64 renderer, so I opted for writing a couple simple STL types (e.g. vector) myself. Since in C++17 the STL headers have gotten quite big, I had extracted only the necessary parts, such as std::forward, to make it work. But GLIBC is of course GPL!

A demonstration of the SMB2 editor. Starting from an empty ROM, showing the Tiled maps for levels, then loading the script and playing through the levels, which my script automatically converts into .asm files...

Then, building the ROM, and the levels are right there, no script needed.

So fortunate to have spent my formative years learning how to code in Z80 (at home) and 6502 (at school/college) on two of the most successful 8-bit microprocessors ever made. Happy Birthday 6502!

Happy Birthday 6502 The MOS Technology 6502 is a microprocessor which casts a long shadow over the world of computing. Many of you will know it as the beating heart of so many famous 8-bit machines from the likes of C…
