New language! You can now write Firefly Zero games in Odin, a Go-like language with manual memory management. Give it a try with the latest firefly-cli:
ff new --lang=odin hello

In reference to @0xabad1dea, --lang=abadidea also works 🙃

I’ve done some performance improvements to the game Lampy for the Firefly Zero handheld retro game console. It should hopefully be fast enough to run on the hardware prototype now so that it can be tested at Fosdem.

I made some more improvements to the game Lampy this evening.
I’m hoping the multiplayer works better, and there’s a bunch of updates to the points system. There are also some bug fixes and other small game improvements.
-
I just published the game Lampy to the Firefly Zero game jam! It's a super simple game where you need to guide fireflies to a goal by shining a flashlight of their color at them. I made it together with a friend during the weekend. I'm dead tired now.

Final day of Firefly Jam 🚨
Even a small, unfinished game is worth submitting.
Progress beats perfection, especially in game jams where you have thematic and time constraintsWe can't wait to see where you are, what you create.
Perks/merchs are already in the house

The Firefly Zero Jam theme is "firefly"! Crazy, right? It can be anything related to fireflies or the word "firefly".
Some ideas:
- Catching fireflies
- Being a firefly
- Mimicking firefly light patterns ("photuris") -
Today at 6:00 PM UTC, we will reveal the theme.

@Thore Well, I'm mainly interested in productivty Linux device 😁 For gaming, I saw on #FOSDEM another interesting device - #FireflyZero 😉
-
I visited the Firefly Zero booth to try out the new hardware prototype. It looks and feels great. I also got to try my game Lampy in multiplayer, which was great. But it still got a bit sluggish with too many fireflies on screen. There’s more optimizations needed.

Got to play with an amazing #gaming #console based on #esp32 - #FireflyZero, here on #FOSDEM

I've published a new version of the Firefly Zero game Lampy that boots and I made for the Firefly Zero Game Jam.
It includes some performance improvements, an improvement to the movement code and some visual improvements.
-
I’ve reimplemented all the movement features and merged the branch into master.
There are some movement improvements, and I hope it will be easier to add new features.
But first I need to do some refactoring of the code.
-
I received a couple of PR's for my Firefly Zero game Blutt with cleanup and updates needed for the latest version.
The new version is published and available to play now.
-
I received two new PRs with improvements to my platformer game Blutti from @orsinium
I have released version 0.8 which contains these changes:
https://github.com/ollej/firefly-blutti/releases/tag/v0.8The movement has been improved to allow both walking and running depending on where on the touchpad you press.
It also now follows the recommended guidelines for which buttons to use.
-
Yesterday I fixed a couple of the remaining big movement bugs in my 2D platformer Blutti. I also added a fix that should hopefully improve control when using the touchpad. Unfortunately I’m still unable to test with a touchpad myself.
Maybe I could setup a VM with Linux and run the game from there with the Steam controller.
