One sleepless night, it came to me how to better convey what's going on with the battles - and the idea was quite simple: make some windows have a "defocused" state.
I will not lie: the project is kind of frozen, since I'm taking care of my baby and busy, studying for $DAYJOB stuff
But I'm quite happy with the effect - not that I don't want to add some more animations, to better explain what's going on.

Decided to give #FreeBSD a try, after having #NetBSD as a daily driver in my old (and defunct) #netbook
The onboarding experience is certainly far from what you get in modern #Linux and just a tad above what I got with the minimalist install for NetBSD.
Pictured is my #RaspberryPi 4 encased in a #JoyPi Note 1.
I had to borrow the ethernet cable from the Vodafone STB, so I can install the required stuff for Wifi (sure, I could do it by hand, but meh).
Might do some #Mesa3D hacking on that :)
I must admit that the Jetbrains UX is much superior (coming from someone who paid for Clion over the last 10 years), but Android Studio can be quite lame sometimes...
On a whim, decided to reduce the resolution of the Amiga CD32 port to the same as the GBA (240x160) and surprisingly, the system scaled it to a much better size!
If I try 160x100, the speed is much better, but this scaling won't happen.
While it's still not amazing, the speed improved dramatically - almost playable I would say.
Ah yes, the colours: I had to reduce from 256 to 32, but I'm working on improving this.

A bit cramped, but it makes the flow of the battle much clearer now. The messages will be improved, of course!
All names, graphics and moves are placeholders.
I have to admit that even for me, it was hard to follow the battles sometimes and I had to employ breakpoints to better understand what was going on.

That laser was a simple addition, but it really game a motivation boost. A simple idea but really aligns with what I want to achieve.
The fact that it is a real 3D polygon and gets shifted by the camera as it moves to focus on the current enemy really sells the idea that someone is shooting
