The GameTank is an open source 8-bit retroconsole that YOU can build, and build games for.
Similar in spirit to fantasy consoles like the Pico-8 or TIC-80, the GameTank is set apart by its implementation as a physical hardware device first, followed by an emulator second. Games are written in assembly, or a mix of C and assembly. The special hardware features of the GameTank - such as the Sprite Copy mechanism and the Audio Coprocessor - streamline the process of writing fun and richly animated games.
An all new, open source 8 bit game console is set to launch in late 2026. It’s called GameTank and it is a true throwback, with original games planned 👀
