Space Hobo<a href="https://bitbang.social/@profoundlynerdy" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@profoundlynerdy</a> BASIC on a C128 around 8 years old. My one problem was that I didn't truly understand the uses of iteration until I read The Little LISPer and found recursion. That helped me work out how to write loops in Pascal and later C.I would say a good emulation of the BASIC experience would be to use something like <a href="https://teh.entar.net/tags/tic80" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tic80</a> to code the "fantasy console" in lua, which is a friendly enough language.

R.L. Dane :Debian: :OpenBSD: 🍵<a href="https://bitbang.social/@profoundlynerdy" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@profoundlynerdy</a>Also BASIC, maybe 6-8 years old.Initial exposure was on an Apple II, but then later I had my own Commodore 64 that played with extensively.I think a virtual console like the <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/tic80" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Tic80</a> or <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/uxn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#uxn</a> is probably the best way to start learning and exploring.

JamesWork continues on the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TIC80" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TIC80</a> demo for <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Revision2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Revision2025</a>'s Fantasy Console competition. *So much* snagging needs to happen today! The engine behind it has a few genuinely novel techniques - certainly new to TIC, and I really want to showcase those well... I'm feeling excited but pressured! <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/demoscene" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#demoscene</a>

JamesThe jointed animations are looking a lot more refined. Poor guy looks to be really struggling out there in zero gravity - surprisingly realistic, I think?! This is purely procedural (i.e. lots of sin functions driving it). Turning into a neat little engine!(Tweaked the animation... it's the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane)<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TIC80" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TIC80</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/demoscene" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#demoscene</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/creativeCoding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#creativeCoding</a>

Víctor R. RuizAdding a WiringPi module to TIC-80's Python interpreter <a href="https://rvr.typepad.com/wind/2025/03/adding-wiringpi-module-to-tic-80-python-interpreter.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://rvr.typepad.com/wind/2025/03/adding-wiringpi-module-to-tic-80-python-interpreter.html</a>This is a project that I worked on last weekend. TIC-80 is one of the most popular open source "fantasy consoles", imaginary retro-console emulators with IDE for code, sprites, maps and music. I show how to extend TIC-80's Python interpreter, pocketpy, to add GPIO access for the Raspberry Pi.Edit: Just uploaded the code to github.<a href="https://floss.social/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gamedev</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/tic80" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tic80</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#python</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/pocketpy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pocketpy</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#retrocomputing</a> <a href="https://floss.social/tags/raspberrypi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#raspberrypi</a>
