Petit computer is a programming interpreter for the DSiWARE. The resources they give you a massive. You're working with 1 meg of memory for your program, lots of VRAM for graphics and the system clocked at 66Mhz for your game.

Ok, I got the brief introduction out of the way and I should show you the videos of a game I made last October I been mentioning on my blog.

Longer play:

This is my very first action game I made. Also, my first game engine that works. I learn a ton programming this game and I applied the knowledge over to the Colecovision C language. I'm getting better at making game kernel which the code will be smaller and let the content be bigger. I love the limitation of the Colecovision and 1KB of RAM is enough, plus I have 4 KB of VRAM I can use for data(as long as the power cord and RF cable don't cross ). Nanochess border trick is extremely useful and telling me how much load I'm putting on the VDP every frame. Also learned how to use the NMI {} loop to count how many time this loop occur when the screen is updating, decreasing the chance writing 0s in the first charset.

I hope you guys enjoy the videos. If you have a DSi or 3DS that have Petit Computer and want to get this game, then you can go to this page to get the QR code to retrieve my game. http://petitcomputer.wikia.com/wiki/Adventure_of_a_Witch:_The_Flightful_Night
