      This technology didn't exist 40 years ago. What you see on a single chip today was an entire board back then of discrete components. The reason devices are so INCREDIBLY inexpensive is because you can fit what was LITERALLY a mainframe computer on a single chip. The raspberry pi is a more powerful machine than the VAX/VMS system was, 30 years ago - that supported 30 students.

      I think this is the future, decentralization. Since we all have massive internet connections today (and we do!) and insanely powerful computers today (and we do!) there's no reason NOT to bring back protocols after tweaking them a bit.
      I'm working on an SMTP mail replacement - it won't connect to the standard email system except through a gateway, but it will be entirely secure, and it will not have a lot of the limitations of standard email - this WILL be able to accept a 2 GB file - but I expect the email client will limit it.
      We have all this centralization we just don't need. Your internet connection is perfectly capable of serving up your little webpage no problem, until you hit a few 100 people logging in regularly.

It does need some changes, but I cannot update the game until September. The game is a lot like the snake game showcased in this video. The game is called Cobra BETA. It has been my biggest project since then. I have a lot of plans for it. Like porting it to mobile, making a full series of it, making a 3d version by making assets based on pre rendered 3d models. The game was originally called Anaconda BETA, and soon I will rename it back to that. I am not really old enough to have a credit card, so I am using whatever resources I can for free.

      @@DFX2KX the thing that cranks the difficulty level to "insane" is that:
      - the gamebuino, has a separate LCD with a controller. So you "merely" need to send the bitmap to the LCD and the LCD takes care of displaying it. You can devote 100% of your CPU cycles to the game, and can display any arbitrary bitmap on the screen.
      - this device drives its own display by driving the X and Y coordinate of an oscilloscope. That means that, in addition to the actual game, you need to devote time to constantly redraw the vector figure on the screen. Also, the display is inherently vector. It's possible to display a bit more complex graphics than polygon by imitating a raster scan (e.g.: sprites in PacMan), but that begin to be quite a lot for driving it real time (it's visible in the mario demo when there are way too many tiles on the screen).
      This means that it's going to be too taxing on the hardware to do a full raycasting AND drive the oscilloscope in raster to render the image.
      It's going to be much easier to display a vector rendition of un-textured, wire-frame 3d levels. Hence my reference to 3-Demon. (Which is also more period accurate given the other 8-bit inspired games)

    13:06 This is what I love about old video games. Instead of file type errors, they just accept anything that happens because data is data and you get things like screens full of garbage. Much more interesting than modern glitches which are usually just 3D model animation errors or physics clipping or whatever.

    As modern tetris player, aside that you mixed some features of modern games - like das or wallkicks - to your classic tetris (at it seems to be in the load screen) , im very glad that you put the effort to make your game as precise as the original is. I say this because our community see everywhere bad fan copies out there to public because its seems easy to make and there are few developers interested to make games as precise as the originals (the same way you did with all the other copies)
    Lots of congrats for all the games and programs that you've done down in 2014.
    Aside of that, one of my hobbies are electronics too, and i know how many knowledge it means to create a 8 bit computer, write in assembly the bios and the game cartridge... right now im just trying to get involved with more electronics theory for my own knowledge previous to a university carreer, but i manage to understand the size of what you did.
    It would be grateful if i can check the tetris and the audio engine for some chiptune hardware player i have in mind and a tetris fangame with most of the guidelines features as you did.
    Lots of congratulations. ¡Buen trabajo!
