Computer motherboard hardware and software must be so full of security vulnerabilities and backdoors.

Updated my bootloader to have maximum payload capacity.
A lot of text can be displayed for game title, description and keys. Example usage for my game in the screenshot.

Pixelartin' for next game.
Core gameplay alredy done. Still some bytes left for more sprites! -
Find out this awesome IDE: Fresh.
It's for Flat Assembler. I was able to fix some bug and now I have a .COM version of the boot-sector games working fine in DOS/WinXP!

I'm thinking of making actual isometric graphics in 512bytes.
I only need 4 sprites (8x8). Figuring out the optimal drawing method will be a lot of fun!

The power of the algorithm!
Problem to solve:
Moving the 🦜 parrot on the screen with arrows, only diagonal movement.Naive vs pro solution is a whopping 88 bytes difference!

I'm thinking of keeping sprites as set of rectangles for my bootsector games.
To test this approach I'm creating a simple painting app that will export to such format.

The Fly Escape game is done. It sits on this magnificent, translucent floppy 💾
Watch it boot: video in 🧵
I sizecode the hell of this code! It has all the features I wanted, works on 286 with 256 KB of RAM and fits perfectly on the first sector (512bytes).

Fly with a health bar. That took a lot of code size optimizations to happend. Now its real!

Last days was spend debugging fatal bug (crashing the system) in my latest game - Fly Escape!
Last night I finally get pass it. I found new bugs but at least now I can play few levels now. After fixing those smaller bugs game will be done. Its already addicting and fun.
I learnt few more tricks for reducing code length. Pentium processor required. 💻
Around 14 bytes left. 💾

I've updated my first bootsector game. Closing last bugs. It is complete now!
2 bytes left ;)
