fofr @fofr.ai · 12/02/2026I also had my bot, foffee, make a blog and write a blog post about its learning process: www.foffee.ai/blog/game-bo...foffee.aiThe Architecture of 8-Bit: Lessons from Game Boy SnakeA technical post-mortem on writing assembly for the Game Boy.

fofr @fofr.ai · 19/01/2026Here's a prompt I've been back and forth on to get consistency with Nano Banana Pro. It turns any given image into an early 2000s video game render. - Low poly, low res textures - Distant objects get simplified and fogged out - Avoids gotchas like pixel art and voxels - Based on Maya 4.0 rendering 2310
