The next #onetagperweek should be "choice", which captures those big decisions that were known to be big at the time of writing. Like "I'm going to do it on the #nintendoDS" or "I will start small, no megaman-X-scoped project this time"

I say "should" because it will draw me into discussing how each of them have been kept or dismissed over the 10-18 years that followed, and that's going to take more than one week :P
like the initial choice on how-to-manage VRAM while scrolling barely lasted 1 month, but the way to associate properties to tiles stayed unchanged for 15 years.
I've chosen to leave behind the #libmikmod for DS despite I knew mikmod for a long time and go for a somewhat-obscure, custom homebrew developed library called #libntxm

(I still have to dig into the community-maintained revival of that library, though)
@asie my biggest concern with libntxm is the way it auto-creates sub-sampled copies of the instruments to accomodate for NDS audio hardware, regardless of whether these are effectively used by the song or not.
That means the memory footprint for the audio samples is twice that of the file...
