Respectively those are
- Kwak-8
- At github https://github.com/Lerc/kwak-8
- Rudimentary webpage
The emulator has successfully run programs built ASM, C and FreePascal. So it's getting into the realms of usable.
I have added a NES style tiled graphics mode which allows x and y flips, so it very much behaves like the blitter only with a big indexed batch. Still weighing up whether or not to have the bitter do Transpose X/Y. Effectively a 90 degree rotate.
Other Kwak-8 bits in the works.
- An assembler, written in JavaScript, so people will be able to do some low level coding from within the browser.
- Audio Registers. Design is complete. 8 voices, which is a little extravagant, but sounding suitably 8-bit bleepy. 8 bytes of parameters encodes frequency,envelope,wave, noise, bend etc.
- The Extended Palette. In serial Pixel mode you can display 256 colours (more if you are clever ;-). I have been working on making a nice balanced palette
