Claw development system, a multiplatform programming platform [multiplatform]

Introduction For the last year, I have been working on Claw, a development system for embedded devices.It has a very small RAM footprint and can run on systems with as few as 2 KB of RAM.The VM's own memory footprint is tiny and most of the RAM remains to be used by the applications.Claw will probably support multitasking in it's operating system releases and also support CEFS (Claw embedded read-only file system) and FAT32 for loading (and storing) files from and to.The files a...

PICO-8 : Fantasy console

I discovered about PICO-8 months ago and Lexaloffle was kind enough to give me a code for alpha builds of it.What's PICO-8? PICO-8 is a fantasy console project. Run in Lua and with SDL2, it aims to be run on computers and the Raspberry PI. It greets you with a Lua shell/CLI not too far from good old computers like C64 but that's not the only thing it includes. It includes a code editor (up to ~15KB lua code), a sprite editor (~256 different sprites), a map edito...

Piworld

Handmade Hero has inspired me to take another shot at this old project.Piworld was my first project, and it was largly thanks to the calc community that I became a programmer.My interest in calculators faded as PC programming captured my attention, but my dream for piworld was far beyond what I could accomplish back then. I moved on to other things, but I think it is finally time to make that dream from my youth a reality.My vision for this game is an isometric/2.5d adventure game in the spirit ...

Gateway to Legend is an open-source Puzzle-RPG. The main focus of the game will obviously be solving puzzles to get experience, as any Puzzle-RPG would have it, but the mechanics that make this game unique is that most puzzle mechanics will be based off doors or gates! Switches and door pairs allow you to gain access to rooms, teleporters provide gates between two places on the map, and more! It also supports the development and easy integration of user-generated content, as well; you can make p...
