Messiahtron Video Game System

Post by AndrewAPrice »

I present to you the Messiahtron Videogame System!

Download here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/messiahtron

There are 3 distributions:
- Windows binaries
- Visual Studio 2005 sources
- Technical doc only

What is included:
- The emulator.
- The firmware and source.
- A Pong cartridge and it's source (written in assembly) - it has nice graphics!
- The assembler.
- The high-level assembler.
- The cartridge image making tool.
- VBCC C compiler.
- Technical doc.

What I didn't manage to do and other issues (mostly due to time constraints):
- Only 1 game (Pong) was created.
- The audio controller, time controller, and interrupts weren't implemented in to the emulator.
- The C backend produces a lot of dodgey code and sometimes freezes. (I've spent far too long on this, time I could have spent on the emulator!)

If enough people want me to, I will finish the emulator in my own time, and even write a 2nd sample game.

Anyway, enjoy!
My OS is Perception.
