I went out window shopping at one of my local #RetroGaming shops today. #8BitHallOfFame has reopened after its original location was destroyed by #HurricaneIan. Here are pictures of some of the more remarkable pieces they have for sale.

Been meaning to get round to tooting more stuff about what I'm working on but the day job comes first.

I have days when I open notepad ++ and just stare at code for a bit then close it down, not actually doing anything, yesterday (or was it Sunday? Probably Sunday) was one of those days.

I've got a number of #FairchildChannelF stuff in the works, I feel like I should go and finish space race, which I believe has had a port recently possibly to the 7800 or the A800 (or both).

Here is my first go at tooting an image.

In my spare time I currently use #assembly to make #FairchildChannelF games. An SD card solution for playing on real hardware is in development by other hobbyists, but can still use an #emulator.

I currently mostly work on #demakes or #upmakes or simply #ports or even #simulations of older concepts some even before 1972.

Here is a link to my Itch.io profile where these #games are available to #download

I guess I should do an #Introduction

In the day I'm a #PublicSector worker in #education and #SEN and #neurodiverse and diagnosed myself.

When I'm not working, I try to keep up with my #coding and #programming of which most of it is now in #assembly where I make #upmakes #demakes and #ports of #games to systems like #FairchildChannelF.

Surprisingly I do play a lot of #videogames myself.

If you like to do similar things or know someone else that does, let me know!
