it's #screenshotsaturday so here's the unfiltered version of a bunch of my textmode mockups! tiles and palette up for free at datagoblin.itch.io/dungeonmode

A collection of six pixel art textmode mockups, showing different screens of an RPG, such as: a dungeon exploration scene, a menu scene displaying a map of the area, an enemy encounter against a shaman, a party management menu, and an upgrade screen where a shadowy figure prompts the player to select a "boon".

How did you make music on a C64? That took not just understanding music theory, but understanding what exactly a note is. Granted, it doesn't help that Lftkyro makes typing in assembly in BASIC off the top of your head look simple.

Really appreciated the opportunity to talk to Shahram Izadi about Android XR and also his history with and thoughts about XR and its possibilities. It makes me flashback to learning about the HCI field in grad school and how the right interface/experience can unlock potential.

If you were using Bartender for your menu bar but are feeling uneasy about new ownership, I would recommend Ice, icemenubar.app. It has all the functionality that I used from Bartender (and actually fixes a couple bugs). Open source. Free to use w/ donations requested.
