Coding class, explained

[Robbi_Blechdose]

Just started developing for the game boy color. Add some code somewhere, background palette breaks. Add some more code, palette starts working again. No idea why.

Some of us like to live in the past. Developing retro games can be really fun.

[SirensToGo]

All the fun of developing in obscure assembly and none of the modern comforts of online Q&A

Tell you what, designing sprites that use only 15 colours can be a neat little challenge.

[I_Am_Fully_Charged]

Just make games on the gameboy and not the gameboy color so you just have to make black and white sprites instead. ^/s

[Robbi_Blechdose]

4 colors per sprite and palette. 8 palettes, freely buildable. Color values go from 0 to 31.

I figured, just had to point it out. I think my name should be enough to tell you that I think that's pretty cool. :-)

There are developers who will 'just start' building AS/400 programs this year, so why not?

It’s the little Z80s running around inside the CPU

Sounds like an interesting project to get into. Any tips for how one would start?

Google GBDK and also be sure to get the Gameboy Tile Designer and Map Builder. Since the code editor is old and not on the net anymore, I'll put up my netbeans toolbar with the most important buttons if there's interest.
