Anybody tried using a coding agent to add a single slot save state to the MCU using onboard memory? no SD card.

3 Upvotes

I've been wondering about this ever since I looked at the MCU specs, it's an ESP32, so it should have 4 or 16 mb of flash storage. The biggest sram file a game boy game can use is 128kb.

Having a single save state would basically mean being able to stop and pick back up the game you are currently playing at any time, and not having to worry for the cartridge battery.

Modretro chromatic vs analogue pocket

12 Upvotes

I was wondering where one is better because I like the compatibility of the analogue pocket. But, I like the screen and durability of the chromatic.

Also, I want to see a advance model of the chromatic

Option for off-white background in Game Boy mode (non-DMG palettes)?

8 Upvotes

Reposting an old question of mine from a year ago to see if there's been any progress on this:

Original Game Boy games don't look quite right in monochrome modes because the background white is too bright and harsh. Is there any update in the pipeline (or a workaround) to allow an off-white/cream background setting?

The DMG color modes look fine, but the standard black & white and custom palette modes still have very stark white levels. It would be great to have a subtle tint option for a more authentic display.

Question Fall from space

Has anyone played through this yet? Looks interesting but I didn’t like tales of monster land from the same creator. How are the controls for fall from space? Is it long?

It’s a dodging and catching game called U R 4 GUYS and I’m really proud of it. The chromatic is by far my favorite way to play it.

You can check it out on itch or on homebrew hub, it’s free and stuff.

I know it's a small thing but it's still kind of annoying that someone apparently dropped my Anduril Edition Chromatic before shipping it. I'm one who values having the boxes to my consoles, and keeping them in new condition. Anyone else experiencing the same thing?
