Moondrop Isle

I originally played an earlier build which was removed from the server while I played it. Some of these notes are from that build, and might therefore be fixed/outdated in the later build which replaced it.

Zach:

  • Logic:
    • It's not clear to me what the point of the kitchen puzzle is. is it just a shortcut/alternate route? for its complexity I kinda expected reaching a new area, but I'd already been in the Break Room/Statue Garden via the tunnels
    • "wear glasses" doesn't work? (This might have been fixed in newer build?)
  • Missing descriptions:
    • Clotho's Yarn: "x group" should work
    • Break Room: couch, microwave, lockers
  • Typos:

RGBDS routine for verifying, clearing and loading SRAM in a Game Boy game
; Based on nitro2k01's code from https://forums.nesdev.org/viewtopic.php?t=14631
; Changes:
; - Retains all registers, so a call to this routine can be added anywhere
; - Instead of saving all WRAM, just save a set number of bytes (c)
; Usage:
; - On boot, call LoadSRAM (will init and zero SRAM if needed, then load from SRAM)
; - When saving, call SaveSRAM (and then potentially LoadSRAM.sramOK)
LoadSRAM:
call EnableSram

CHIP-8 extensions and compatibility

This document is intended as a well-sourced and exhaustive documentation of all extensions to CHIP-8. They all use the standard CHIP-8 interpreter as a base, mentioning what additions and changes they make to that common base.

This list is mostly for historical purposes; few of the extensions listed here had a considerable number of programs written for them. It could serve as a reference for CHIP-8 emulator/interpreter developers who want to support the various incompatible instructions and behaviors that have cropped up in different interpreters over the decades. Perhaps the instructions listed here can also inspire someone to make their own modern CHIP-8 extension (of which there have been a couple, see the bottom of the list).

A note on modern implementations

The only CHIP-8 extensions in active use today (beyond basic CHIP-8) are Super-CHIP 1.1 and the relative newcomer XO-CHIP.
