@eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place whooohooo? what device IS that?
@kate no device, it's my VM, that I wanna get running on a variety of retro hardware

@eniko A friend of mine did a few demos using 256-modes. Here is one with included turbo basic source code (including the 256 mode setting): https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=8741 According to comments it is hard to run in emulators...!
@eniko And while on memory lane, if you haven't already seen the things made by Tran https://www.pouet.net/groups.php?which=878 then those have weird graphics modes as well!

RE: https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@eniko/115997862376195752
aha! i figured it out! DOS mode X 256x224 is really just 320x240 with padding
BUT, if i use VESA 640x480 then 128x96 actually scales cleanly, with each pixel being 5x5
so for DOS i can do that with 256x224 as a fallback
i've finally completely figured out my retro hardware universal framebuffer display mode for my Bismuth VM
In case you have no idea what I'm on about (likely): imagine writing a game for a 128x96 framebuffer screen once and then being able to run it on modern systems, web, DOS, SNES, Mega Drive, GBA, and PSX

@eniko That was kinda the idea with my engine, maug, but the lowest common denominator is sooo looow... so I kinda gave up on the really low end... I ended up making some sprite abstractions for systems with hardware sprites, tho, so maybe there's hope...

@indigoparadox i mean, 128x96 is kinda pico-8ish so it's still usable
plus i can add less universal modes later

@aeva Have you seen "Palm Springs" (2020)? It's a similar premise. One of the main characters teaches herself quantum physics to figure out how to escape the time vortex.

@gmarcosanti
sia nella scuola sia nell'università l'orientamento è a tutti gli effetti marketing e pubblicità per attirare iscritti. A prescindere da quelle che sono le propensioni. Tutto viene presentato come il paese dei balocchi, gli "open day" sono finalizzati solo ad abbagliare e convincere il potenziale "utente" che farà la scelta migliore accettando il prodotto che gli si propone (la cosidetta "offerta formativa"). Il tutto in un'atmosfera di autoreferenzialità.
Carne da macello.
