Retro Game Coders
Retro computer/console game + dev community
Retro C/C++ Programming tutorials showing you how you can code games on 8 and 16 bit computers from the 1970s, 80s and 90s. Covers the very basics, plus cross-development compilers such as CC65, LLVM, VBCC, Z88DK.
Drawing the roguelike on the the Atari ST with VT52 escapes through GEMDOS
Coding up a "Not Conio But Compatible" library for Amiga VBCC, plus the three painful rakes I stepped on
Building a conio-like layer so the same game code works on both the Amiga and the Atari ST.
In this fourth and final building-block post on the way to the multi-platform roguelike in C, we add keyboard input so our player character can move
The ZX Spectrum Next is now in my online IDE, including both Next BASIC and Boriel compiled BASIC, and of course Z80 ASM and C
Finally a full web-based Z80 CP/M 2.2 emulator and online development environment!
In this part of the series we look at how Atari St and Amiga handles ASCII text and we create a hard-coded dungeon in C.
It's weird but sometimes BASIC beats C, in ways you might not expect!
Time to investigate how loops work in C as we develop a game for the ST and Amiga
