The Amiga uses up to 32 colors onscreen, and each color is defined by a 4 bit per channel definition... The Amiga Palette definitions are contained in the Copperlist
Lets learn how to make changes to the colors!

The Genesis uses 3 bits per color channel, while more limited than systems like the SNES, this is still perfectly adequate for most purposes,

The Genesis can have up to 4 palettes of 16 colors each.

The NeoGeo uses 5 bits per channel, has 16 colors per palette, and up to 256 palettes!

Lets learn how to set the colors on the Neo Geo!

While later versions may have had better color, the basic Atari uses 3 bits per channel, Lets learn how to set the colors with our palette

https://youtu.be/UNi03ncGwsA http://www.chibiakumas.com/68000/platform2.php#LessonP13 The x68000 has a great palette, using 15 bits per color!... We just need to write to the correct memory address... In these tutorials we use a common format on all platforms, which is one nibble per channel, we ju...

I've now had some success with the pdpy11 assembler, and got some simple code running on E11

Heh!, very good!

I understand your comments on bitplanes, The pixel layout of the AtariST seems especially weird if you ask me.

I will now listen to some tracks on your soundcloud!

@aberrant Can you suggest an emulator and assembler for a PDP-11 beginner? I've been having a quick play this morning with Macro-11 and E11, but I can't find a 'hello world' example that compiles and works, more worrying, MACRO-11 crashes during compiling some of the samples (with no output) which i...

That's great! I'm not really that skilled with the Atari 8 bits, but what you've done here looks like you've pushed the hardware really hard. Of course you're welcome to show off older projects, (1 year is hardly old anyway) And especially if the source is available - that's something others can lea...

That's a cool little game! The bomb characters are really cute... it kind of reminds me of 'smash bros' or something like that!... I'm not familiar with GiantBomb, so I probably don't get the jokes. You say you took just a month to develop this? that's really impressive - amazing work! running it fr...
