Tiny Arcade & Pocket Arcade / Building binaries problem

« on: April 24, 2023, 07:59:32 AM »

I haven't built anything for tinyarcade/pocketarcade for a while. I installed the latest arduino IDE (2.1.0). I installed the latest TinyScreen library (1.1.0). I exported the compiled binaries. I copied the .bin to the sd card. It doesn't run. Any idea what could be wrong? Or how to debug the issue?

Tiny Arcade & Pocket Arcade / Mutant Road

« on: May 31, 2020, 03:22:09 PM »

I was going to fix up Color Monsters for the Mayker Madness contest but didn't get to it and decided I didn't have the time. Instead I decided to try my hand at a beat-em up. It is still early in development. I have posted it for the contest.

Once I make the level more complete I'll post a bin.

Tiny Arcade & Pocket Arcade / SdFat and directories

« on: June 13, 2018, 07:05:59 AM »

For my color monster game, I've been looking into SdFat. I've been able to write to a file in the root directory. I haven't been able to write a file in a subdirectory. I'd much rather save information in the game directory than in root. I did tried this:

Code: [Select]

dataFile.open("colormonster/colormn1.dat", O_WRITE | O_CREAT | O_TRUNC)Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?

User Projects / Code Examples / Color Monsters

« on: June 04, 2018, 01:04:21 AM »

I've been thinking of how to use the TinyArcade. I wanted something which uses the sd card. My current idea is a Pokemon like game. The world is black and white. The creatures aren't very powerful until they gain color. You paint your monsters in the game. I'm still very early in the design. Included a screenshot from my simulator running the painting screen. Might need a zoom screen on the TinyArcade as it is hard to do details on the small screen. The monster is the Cateye taken from the Tuxemon game.

User Projects / Code Examples / Viobyte (Pac-Man Clone)

« on: August 31, 2017, 09:43:05 AM »

Since Asteroids and Space Invaders are already available, I decided to make a Pac-Man clone. It's not quite complete yet. You can eat dots and ghosts can kill you. No power pellets. The tunnel to the other side of the screen doesn't work. Score and lives are not displayed.

Thanks to zet23t for his simulator and jonwingrove for his sprite library.
