Porthole, my forthcoming camera/video capture app, now communicates with a custom build of Homebrew Channel (hbc-reborn) to allow my Mac to control my dev Wii! Mouse to act as pointer, click as A, keyboard as d-pad, etc

I think i have documented most of newozero online especially in the gbatemp thread that is like 4 years old. Its is a case of learning to focus on the things that matter rather than trying to do everything all at once. #gamedev

For the past week I've been loading test builds onto Wii SD card over FTP and today I realised Homebrew Channel has "wiiload" support: so I can script the loading, running, logging of builds as a loop. Game changer! 🔰 wiibrew.org/wiki/Wiiload

UPDATE: The EU Council sent me a letter with its decision NOT to lift the sanctions on me. That means at least another year under sanctions. The reasons they give should be a warning to everyone about where European authoritarianism is going.

"Aeros Prime: Parallel Slipstream" is the third track of the new Grand Prix that I just released earlier today! It's the dedicated slipstream track of the game, and it's the one track I can confidently say is 99% Aero GPX DNA if you play it right. Very happy with it!

main things to look out for when #beta #wii #homebrew testing; sluggish frame rate, poppins are normal, track sections that collide, falling off the track into the void, crashing back to the hbc. #gamedev

The fps is stable now. I think the rain still needs some work but its not important. The buildings are darker and the texture is smaller which should make it seem more detailed.

I'll try and dump my copy of Vector PACK for Mac 1999 today! I paid almost this much for 2xCDs. There's also a Windows equivalent that covers Japanese PCs and handhelds. Essentially searchable backups of Vector website. #preservation #cdrom #japanese jp.mercari.com/item/m4272103…

playing around with the menu colours. only so much you can do with 6 options. #gamedev

I could add more options but there would be no point in the over complication of a basic element. Everything you add makes the whole thing more tedious.

adding overlapping tracks to my racing game was when I really fell into the groove. You know that feeling in coding when you finally unlock a feature that you had wanted to do forever but couldnt? #gamedev

working on the rain effect for a little bit today. the fun thing about the new particle system is that I can colour each thing and see the color is the debug meter. The left most vert bar is the particle meter. the lower is the fps. the gray bar is the step meter #gamedev

the step system is for easing animations that are kinda important. the particle system is low priority which allows me to dump stuff like rain into it without worrying about it crashing the game. #gamedev
