Who knew saving tiny LCD people on the Oric could be this addictive? Here’s a gameplay demo of my almost-finished Manhole port! #retrogaming #oric #8bit #gamedev

It's been ages since I did anything with my 6502 homebrew computer, so here is a video about benchmarks against classic machines from back in the day - always a controversial topic!😂 #homebrewcomputer #mos6502 #basic #80s #6502cpu youtu.be/pQFLyB10Uj8

After sitting in my archives for 4 years, I finally revived my fan port of Nintendo's Game & Watch – Manhole (1981) for the 8-bit Oric! The project is now almost complete – classic LCD gameplay reborn on a retro home computer. #retrogaming #oric #8bit

#Encounter is an excellent graphical adventure for the #OricAtmos computer, originally released for the #ZXSpectrum in 1983, and lovingly converted by @DefenceForceOrg -> go download your copy now defenceforce.itch.io/encounter

Can I generate 8-bit graphics for a niche 80s computer (Oric-1) using Copilot? Sort of is the answer - due to the contextual sensitivity of Copilot, the experiments in this video aren't as good as when I tried earlier! youtu.be/Vf9Gvi1Y3II

I got new-old stock Oric-1 tapes and tried to load it on my battered 42 year old WHSmith player into my owned from new in 1983 Oric-1. Surprised to report that it actually worked, I was convinced it would be a disaster! youtu.be/4QyK8Ecp6k4

As we approach our 20th anniversary, we're reflecting on what makes #TNMOC special. One visitor said: "TNMOC is a marvelous repository of computing history." For two decades, we've preserved the stories of those who shaped our digital world. What does TNMOC mean to you? 👇

Since apparently the rules encourage sharing C and assembler resources, here is the complete source code of the game I released last December, which is pretty much all in C and 6502 assembler😅 Feel free to ask any question! github.com/Dhebug/Encount…

I have been loaned a "Frob" ATARI 2600 development system courtesy of the NVM, so I can demonstrate it. But the disk is in terrible shape. I will attempt to clean it, but I am putting out a call to anyone who may have a copy, please get in touch with me!

A quick Oric and dflat update - my Tetris in dflat is now running PT3 mod files in the background. The game is very slightly slower with background music but I think the overall experience is improved due to the audio. Some nerdy memory dumps also shown🤓 youtu.be/w9TSx_pyq_I

Time to get thinking caps on for this fun, creative and friendly competition. That Tetris implementation is pretty incredible,looking forward to seeing what folks do this year and might have a go again on my trusty Oric-1 🤗

A homebrew breadboard computer, running a homebrew language (dflat) with which I made a homebrew version of Tetris.. Old news - new is that with the ability to play pt3 chiptunes in the background (NMI) using shadow RAM, Tetris has decent music! #8bitmusic youtu.be/MdhmuINP-M4
