F22 intercepter because guiding the TOW missile was really fun. And Populous because I still play it to this day.

The only VHS I kept.

My first console was a Master System I got from a hardware store?! It came with this gem.

If you use offscreencanvas2d you can write to the screen using 8 cores at the same time. Very fast!

-0.2(0.5-t)^4+0.35(0.5-t)^2+0.942809 gives a radius of 0.99982. This is good enough for my engine.

With an error correction of : -0.2(0.5-t)^4+0.28(0.5-t)^2+0.942809 the bezier curve will have a radius of 0.997 units. Tweaking the numbers will give a better accuracy.

With RISC-V single cycle multiply and add instruction should be able to do a whole 3d rotation in 64 cycles!

If you don't want to use sine,cosine. Do 3d rotations with bezier curves!

AssemblyScript now supports OffscreenCanvas2d. Should be able to run this engine on a $18 ESP32-P4.

RISC OS was very sexy. Press f12 and the UI scrolled up revealing a c64 like BASIC text editor.

C64 version. Destroying achilles statue and the enemies kneeling down was memorable.

If you focus on them from 10 cm away you can see a 3d earth.
