Now with two more targets! 🎉
...to facilitate which I rewrote the rendering (across all targets) to use maps and tiles, since the Game Boy and Game Boy Color do not support bitmaps!
They all use the same tiles, map and palette - the latter is organized in 4 columns roughly in luminance order such that the indices also work as grayscale values.

Trying to get familiar with Aseprite to make a splash screen for my polyglot (BIOS + DOS + Windows + GBA + ...) Death Stranding demake.
The red outline is the GBA frame, yellow VGA, blue SNES.
On the technical side I have the proof-of-concepts done - GBA + Win32 is definitely possible 🥳

@Facet @NovaSquirrel I have come at "Is this console retro?" from a different angle:
"If I were to follow the graphical limits of this console, would it look like an attractive stylization, or would it just look like a modern game that skimped on the visual detail budget?"I remember making Game Boy Advance homebrew in 2006 and 2007. At one point, the majority of feedback that I got was "When do you plan to port it to DS?".

Hey there retrocoding friends. Indirectly prodded by @pervognsen I decided to dig out my old GBA stuff and then try to put together a quick "platform guide" for my blog: a round up of resources and resource hubs, along with just enough information to get bare-metal dev off the ground and clear away any toolchain nonsense.
Here's what I have so far, but I bet there are some GBA devs out there who can help me expand it. Any takers?
