Project mention: Ask HN: What's the most fun you've had developing for an older gaming system? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-08-06
TL;DR: Octo[1] and OctoJam were cozily little highlights to the grimmest pandemic years.
Octo[1] targets variants of CHIP-8, an ancient virtual console. The language is so different from daily work that it even the annoyances were refreshing. Yes, that includes having to overwrite parts of instructions to get desired behavior.
The maintainer has moved on[2] to working on Decker[3], but I'm still grateful for his dedication. He underestimates his contributions to encouraging a new generation of emulator developers. I haven't had time to do a deep dive into emulation, but I've enjoyed making:
* A little Mastermind-like game (https://pushfoo.itch.io/safecracker)
* A terminal-like text library (https://pushfoo.itch.io/termlib-demo)
Others have done far better. Timendus even wrote his own linker toolkit to build a multi-tasking operating system[4]. If you're interested, there have been some rumblings of an October event of some sort now and then on the EmuDev Discord server to fill the gap left by OctoJam's end.

PicoBlaze_Simulator_in_JS
Simulator (more accurately: an assembler and an emulator) for Xilinx PicoBlaze, runnable in a browser. That is my Bachelor thesis.
Project mention: What do the cores of good assemblers (the things that come after tokenizing, parsing, and preprocessing, the thing which actually convert mnemonics to opcodes) look like? Are they just a bunch of hard-to-follow if-branchings, or do they somehow use polymorphism to avoid that? | /r/learnprogramming | 2023-10-24For my Bachelor thesis, I made a PicoBlaze Assembler and Emulator in JavaScript. I've discussed it on many Internet forums, and quite a few people have complained that the core of my assembler is hard-to-follow due to lots of if-branchings. So, what is the other way of making the core of the assembler?
