Hylke Bons 🥜looking up and loaf mode. 🐱🍞
whiskers picked up a power star. 🐱🌟
got basic room switching working. the plan is to store only a bump map for each room and decorate on load that so the world can be quite big.
the plan is to stay within 32kb for the rom so it can be flashed on a basic cartridge, but not sure if that will work out. 💾
ok, the gameboy screen only holds 10x9 tiles of 16x16. so a coordinate is never > 16 (4 bits).
so I can store a level object's x+y position in one byte (8 bits) and extract them using bitshift and save 50% storage.
feeling like a hacker now. 😎
bbbbbr@hbons Nice! Those functions are short enough that you could also use the "inline" keyword to remove the function call and return overhead (if performance becomes an issue).
@bbbbbr thanks for the tip!
