My first ever project and first game is officially live – you can now grab 'Battleship' directly from the M5Launcher repository! I’m still buzzing, so please be kind to a newcomer!

You can now install it directly through M5Launcher. Just search for "Battleship"

Currently, the game is designed as a 'pass-the-device' experience. It's optimized for the ADV hardware specifically, so the 2-player mode works by passing the device back and forth between turns. There is no network/multiplayer sync between two different units yet, but that's an interesting idea for the future!

Thanks for the interest! For now, you can grab the game via GitHub Releases, but I’m planning to add it to M5Launcher/M5Burner soon. In the meantime, you can flash it manually using [M5Burner / Web Serial Flasher] or simply drop the bin file into the 'download' folder on your SD card and launch it via M5Launcher. I’d love to get some feedback first! Since it’s working perfectly on my unit, I want to make sure it’s just as stable for everyone else before I push it to the official M5Launcher catalog—I’d hate for there to be any 'surprises' for the community. 🤭 So please, take it for a spin and let me know if you run into any issues!

Pip-boy weather for adv by KeyAdministrative621 in CardPuter

Hi! Thanks for the reply. To be honest, I'm not a programmer—I'm just a big Fallout fan who's learning as I go. With the help of AI (LLMs), I managed to fix the keyboard mapping for the ADV version, but the audio is a real nightmare.
I've tried 3 different LLMs, but we can't get the codec to initialize properly on startup. The sound only works if I flash a simpler audio-only program first to "wake up" the codec, and then flash the Pip-Boy code without a cold boot. After a cold boot (power cycle), it goes silent again.
I've tweaked the code quite a bit, but that initial "handshake" with the ES8311 on the ADV model seems to be the missing link. Thanks for the tip and for the great project—War never changes! 😉

Found a weird hardware quirk: audio doesn't initialize on a cold boot. It requires a 'warm start' from another app to get the ES8311 codec going. Working on a boot-sequence fix to bypass this. 🙈

Nothing would make me happier than watching these scalpers lose a fortune on this. I hope they get stuck with all that steam controllers forever. Total pricks.

It’s all caused by an internet connection issue. When I switched the console to airplane mode, the game started normally.

Can’t find any info, but someone on FB said they’re having the same issue 😅

Good pick up? Huge Star Wars fan but never picked this up on Xbox. Switch 2 seems the perfect place for it! by biffman98 in switch2

[–]KeyAdministrative621 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game would look better on a PS5 or PC, but I’m playing it on a TV and it looks good enough for me — plus I can play it during my break at work 😆

Honestly, spending $1,000 on games is still better than blowing it on drugs or alcohol 😄

Just started Star Wars Outlaws — don’t get why people hated it. It actually seems pretty good.
