I've removed image decoding from the engine and built a small "asset packer" program that converts PNGs to binary assets at build time, reducing them to 8 grayscale colors with RLE compression. Efficiency achieved!

messing around with the playdate again

an outline of a thick winding 2D path is drawn on a playdate screen. a black vision-cone rotates around, getting blocked by the path as it turns

@2DArray looking great! Any tips about how to implement that dithering in a performant way?

@2DArray thanks, super clear explanation! I always thought there was some black magic behind the dithering algo and...in the end it's really, really simple 😅

It's time to start my "autumn" side project, this time going completely out of my comfort zone trying and . A very a good experience so far, basically everything works out of the box 🤯

I gave it a shot, but got no luck getting animation data from a GLTF file. So, while I figure that out, how about switching to something simpler like MD5? ...and guess what? It's working!

@guntha yeah, guess what? In the end I cannot find a good exporter to md5...I guess I should try again with gltf 😅

Ok, I somehow managed to break my Ubuntu install and neither gnome or plasma are able to start. Really considering a full reinstall with right now, does anybody know how well proprietary GPU drivers are supported?

@AngryAnt how about Unity? Is there an easy way to install it or should I use flatpack or similar?
