I am real excited, I just received my FEZ Spider Kit + eBlock kit, this weekend being a long weekend I took the time to write something familiar just to acquaint myself with the framework and the components.
Here is a mini-PACMAN, I used the FEZ Spider, the T35 Display and the joystick. This was a project of multiple firsts, my first .NET MF work and my first youtube video, I did it on the cheap and just used my webcam + VLC to capture the video.
Gralin, I have been lurking the forums for sometime (I have been thinking about getting a kit for years), and I feel quite honored that people of the caliber of Skewworks and yourself have noticed what I have done.
This makes me even more excited to share the code, it would be great to get some input from the community. And that will be another first, I have never publicly shared any code that I have written so of course I feel a little anxious about that
This, is not “hello world”, but I am not new to development either, just new to the Micro Framework and the hardware side of it. I hope to try my hand on the hardware side as well.
I want to get more familiar with the ARM assembly, I am reasonably familiar with x86 and Z80 so I am not totally in the dark on the subject. In my wanderings on the site learning about RLP, I noticed some stuff that you did sometime back (rotation of an image on the display) and I was wondering if you could point me to a good reference.
@ taylorza Now that is what i call a show stopper! Very very cool especially as a first work. Welcome to the community, i think your a going to love it here
@ ianlee74, mmm that is a cool idea. I did not realize that those rigs could be ordered.
Might be fun to build a tiny game console with a few classic arcade games. Damn, now I need to finish the game
Where can I order a mini arcade enclosure? Is it something GHI sells?
While I am asking, I see in the videos many of you have cool perforated boards that you have all your modules mounted on, can those be ordered? I can see my wife is already starting to wonder if I am going to ever get some order to the chaos that is my desk.
I see from your profile you are in the UK, can you suggest any good sources I can order online electronic components from?
There are no local suppliers for .NETMF hardware in Cyprus and I would like to avoid the import duties by ordering from within Europe, so if you have any suppliers that you or anyone else on the Forum could recommend I would appreciate it.
