- Crowd sourcing for genesis
- If I were to try to make a simple 2D RPG or visual novel is the n64 easier than genesis Dreamcast and Saturn?

Problem with compiling
It might have needed two at one point. I see both mentioned in a few places, but the wiki appears to say you need the full path. https://github.com/Stephane-D/SGDK/wiki/SGDK-Usage

Best way to create a map with enemy characters using C?
P.S. The plan down the line is to at some point add sprites to it and port it to the Sega Genesis using SGDK so it would no longer be a text adventure game. However for now I'm having fun practicing my C skills with this and hopefully will have a cool project for my portfolio.

At least college isn't making me learn Objective-C.
Examples: - Someone I know created machine-optimized library in c and asm to accelerate compression, erasure coding, and encryption on Intel Xeon CPUs (https://github.com/intel/isa-l) which runs those ops WAY faster than the standard linux libraries. - My friend is making a retro SEGA genesis game using a C and asm dev kit (https://github.com/Stephane-D/SGDK)

What is it called when you make a whole new game and put it on a old console like NES Atari genesis etc
If you are specifically looking into the Genesis you should look into SGDK, the sega development toolkit https://github.com/Stephane-D/SGDK.
- SGDK – A free and open development kit for the Sega Mega Drive
- Dear developers and hardware engineers of reddit, It is possible to develop new games for old consoles? Like the SNES or DS for instance. If it is indeed possible, what tools would be required?

Why do Sega Genesis has so much more homebrew ports of games than SNES?
SGDK may be one reason. Nothing comparable on the SNES side.

What’s up with people pretending to die after drinking the grimace shake?
I doubt it was intentional. They hired a studio to make a retro style game and they probably just happened to hire one specializing in gb development. There's a lot of good tools now like https://www.gbstudio.dev/

Best source for writable carts for homebrew?
Very cool! Maybe you can make a pixel art style portfolio of your work that runs on a GB cart and a rom to share around? Do you know about GBStudio?

Grimace birthday game
No, it's an actual game boy game built using GB Studio, that's the point, that it's compatible with any device capable of running GB games, including original hardware! :)

GB Studio: Drag and drop retro game creator for GameBoy
It actually does interpret bytecode, you can see the opcode definitions here https://github.com/chrismaltby/gb-studio/blob/1f995a976bd3aa...
The trick is that a lot of the heavier stuff is implemented in assembly and this is mostly used for lighting scripting (from what I understand).

any resources for expanding on ECS?
If you ever want to just play around with gameboy stuff, GB Studio is much simpler, but only supports building certain types of games, since it's a no-coding kind of thing.
