Dragon 32 is fast becoming one of those “it’s fascinating because it’s bad but also charming” systems like the zx81. Never going to be a gamers go-to but, I dunno, I like it 🤓
Made some progress to my "not conio" library and Amstrad and ZX Spectrum now get full cross-platform retro roguelike treatment :)
I definitely need better colours for the Amstrad version though! And Speccy is in 32 columns so a problem for hard-coded maps but when procedural won't be an issue.
Another new toy in the Garrett house 🤩
Is it still procedural generation when you roll dice by hand?
Next step: UV printing all the sides and play testing
Wrote a program to simulate my physical dice designs and 25 rolled dice (with random rotation on corridors) works pretty well. There will need to be a rule for starting point and ending the current map etc but so far the generated maps are pretty nice already.
Someone keeps offering to buy my website. One of those "we just need you to give us all your private and confidential details, logins, and a transfer payment ..." scams isn't it?
No way on this green earth that this is legit.
We're moving Super Mario Bros. to an agentic workflow. Rather than controlling Mario, you'll simply prompt the agent with something like "beat 1-1", and it will take direct control of Mario for you. This frees up more time for more important things like doing your taxes or being stuck in traffic
