I was a bit worried about the implementation of circling platforms, but in the end it seemed fairly painless! #esagame #gamedev

let's never forget this is how the great Iwata handled the poor reception of Wii U, not with layoffs, but by cutting his own wage.

I've started working on a little tool for creating retro games.

It consists of a C-like language with automatic garbage collection, and a runtime with a 320x240 color indexed display.
Can be run from cmd line, or as a vscode extension, which also gives you symbolic debugging.

The whole thing is written in C++ and SDL2, so should (eventually) be able to export to a bunch of platforms including Web Assembly.

Apparently Epic just laid off 900 employees. That's a scary number of lives that have been upended. I'm so so sorry to anyone affected by this.
