SEGA Genesis Game Development

:grin1: so I was watching some of the old games being played on youtube that I used to play all the time with my sega genesis console, and I was looking into the file formats out of curiosity and I came across lots of cool information, and this link: BasiEgaXorz - Sega Genesis BASIC Compiler

Seems tempting to make my own sega game now haha.

I don't have my genesis anymore, I had it up until a couple years ago, but I can always still use a genesis emulator and play from my PC.

Here's B.O.B:

I recently bought a GBA and a FlashCart for it - I'm hoping to make something to keep me occupied over the summer. :grin1:

I bought a NetDuino because I didn't want to dish out $1000's for something like an Altera. It was nice, but probably a mistake. It's just too simple, so unless you are a beginner programmer and just want to see something basic happen, then it's probably not for you. I got lights happening to the buzzer and I'm also able to control the dimming, but after that, I left the program in there and probably haven't touched it in a month or two now...

edit: Btw, I finally got scrolling text with some BGM working so far from a little fooling around. The emulator makes it look like the end credits of a sega game.
