Show HN: I recreated 90s Mode X demoscene effects in JavaScript and Canvas
I've been thinking about making a fantasy computer/console that uses an emulated 6502 CPU, maybe a bit simplified -- every instruction only taking 1 cycle, for example. You could use all existing tools for the 6502, like the amazing KickAssembler, and there's an interesting high level language called prog8 (https://github.com/irmen/prog8) that's relatively easy to use. Not sure if there's any interest for something like that.
- KickC is a C-compiler for 6502-based platforms creating readable assembler code

Open Source library to compile some programming language to native code?
I've been writing Prog8 (in Kotlin) and it generates code for the 6502 cpu instead. I also find that generating reasonable efficient assembly is super hard. This is the first true compiler I've written that actually produces machine code. For now, it generates the assembly straight from the Ast (no intermediate representation yet), and the bulk of optimizations are done straight on the Ast.

I made a turbo tape with some of my favorite games.
Prog8 is also nice, it is a close-to-assembly language for 6502-based systems: https://github.com/irmen/prog8
