zoomer from an old #pico8 #tweetcart (sorry, lost the originator) ... converted to #swiftui #playgrounds and #8bit pixels ... with a little bit of screen shake in the #wormhole
Moved onto #swift #playgrounds. The #TimelineView animation makes it simple to update a view, canvas or in this case an image bitmap array (that scales). As always like to recreate @guerragames #pico8 #tweetcarts to get started.
Attempted #retrogame remake of #Amiga #SWIV first stage in javascript might be fun. Game-map from hol.abime.net/2240/gamemap. No sprite sheet out there so working through splitting it all out in #aseprite.
Researched for weeks for a simple #javascript animated #GIF encoder. Nothing but old complicated libraries, and then found github.com/mattdesl/gifenc. Simple to use and understand. Thanks @mattdesl.
Into the deep end with @shiffman's* vectors for my #kickoff2 #LearnToCode. Next up is his seek algorithms, and some football tactics. *caveat: not using #p5js just plain #javascript #html5 #canvas but great videos to keep going back to.
... javascript ... canvas ... pixel data array ... pico8 inspired ... back to 1980s basic via @codinghorror tweet ... lunar lander ... now teaching me forty years on

Somewhat Lemon Jelly like ... #Lemonjelly.ky album cover. And @FredDeakin is back I have just discovered.
Sorry, just had to reproduce teapaw.org/lexaloffle/status/1004…. Learnt how to return more than one thing from a #JS function and finished TIMER function. #CodeNewbie
For the last few weeks have been watching, rewinding and pausing over and over @pomle Meth Meth Method's 3D wireframe lesson at youtube.com/watch?v=_x3feYZN…
