Since we all have massive internet connections today (and we do!) and insanely powerful computers today (and we do!) there's no reason NOT to bring back protocols after tweaking them a bit. I'm working on an SMTP mail replacement - it won't connect to the standard email system except through a gateway, but it will be entirely secure, and it will not have a lot of the limitations of standard email - this WILL be able to accept a 2 GB file - but I expect the email client will limit it.

@@albertoossola1481 Probably volume, brightness is tough on a oscilloscope because you basically have to rewrite sprites and backgrounds over themselves and that makes them brighter, the only issue with that when you have too many sprites on screen it starts spazzing out like it did on the Mario game at the end of the level the flashing was from the amount of sprites being loaded. The reason it flashes is so you can see all the sprites at the same time, but there's not enough memory to show them all at the same time so flashes between them as quickly as possible.

[@tomharrison9280]

it should be doable, as there was someone who made a half decent little clone of Wolf3D on an 328P based gaming handheld called the Gamebuino.

[@DrYak]

@@DFX2KX the thing that cranks the difficulty level to "insane" is that: - the gamebuino, has a separate LCD with a controller. So you "merely" need to send the bitmap to the LCD and the LCD takes care of displaying it. You can devote 100% of your CPU cycles to the game, and can display any arbitrary bitmap on the screen. - this device drives its own display by driving the X and Y coordinate of an oscilloscope. That means that, in addition to the actual game, you need to devote time to constantly redraw the vector figure on the screen. Also, the display is inherently vector. It's possible to display a bit more complex graphics than polygon by imitating a raster scan (e.g.: sprites in PacMan), but that begin to be quite a lot for driving it real time (it's visible in the mario demo when there are way too many tiles on the screen). This means that it's going to be too taxing on the hardware to do a full raycasting AND drive the oscilloscope in raster to render the image. It's going to be much easier to display a vector rendition of un-textured, wire-frame 3d levels. Hence my reference to 3-Demon. (Which is also more period accurate given the other 8-bit inspired games)

This video inspired me to make a video game in scratch. I made it on my school chromebook. I coded it, made the music, drew the sprites, and used some articles to find out how to make it work. It does need some changes, but I cannot update the game until September. The game is a lot like the snake game showcased in this video. The game is called Cobra BETA. It has been my biggest project since then. I have a lot of plans for it. Like porting it to mobile, making a full series of it, making a 3d version by making assets based on pre rendered 3d models. The game was originally called Anaconda BETA, and soon I will rename it back to that. I am not really old enough to have a credit card, so I am using whatever resources I can for free.

[@stephenbranley91]

I started a game in 2009 and finished it in 2020 :D To be fair it was shelved for most of that time, but it takes ages to draw all the sprites, write the music, create the sound effects and, of course, program the games logic. And that was C++. To do all he's done in assembly is incredible.

Interesting. Since I have no clue about assembly or electronics (did one class, but had to leave because I can't solder) all I could recommend as an improvent is to switch out one of those square waves for a tri wave and another for a saw wave. If you ever feel like ramping up the challenge on this, I'd recommend adding red and blue beams (and maybe amber and white beams to emulate more natural light) to see if it can display more than one colour.

I’d play this 10x more than a modern console, because it’s not mass manufactured, it’s not some device made by some company, it’s unique. It’s special. It’s using perf boards and EEPROMS to work as cards, it’s super basic circuitry compared to modern electronic circuitry, I love it

Also important to any implementation of Tetris are non-wall kicks and SRS (which enable T-spins and the like).
