TL;DR:

Life

To no-one's surprise, Odín 🐶 is still the best dog. I love seeing him grow up.

I also moved to my very own flat, and have been busy (still am) getting furniture, decorations and making small repairs.

Tinkering with

For some years I've had this impulse of coding my own fantasy console (like PICO-8, TIC-80, etc.) but with a twist: a custom language similar to one I used as a kid to make games, DIV Games Studio.

DIV was a language where concurrency was used to implement different game elements (like the player, enemies, bullets, etc.). It worked really well for arcade games.

I'm making a prototype of the virtual machine and the assembly language for it, and got it to a point where I can run a tiny game similar to the one featured in DIV Games Studio's manual:

I'm calling this project Djinn, and let's see where this goes.

Enjoying
