GBRetroDev 2025: Awards Ceremony
🎮 Join us live for the GBRetroDev 2025 Awards Ceremony! Get ready to witness history in the making at the GBRetroDev 2025 Awards! ( https://itch.io/jam/gbretrodev25 ) Hosted by the University of Alicante, this isn't just a contest—it's a celebration of pure coding grit. We challenged student teams to do the impossible: build an original Game Boy game from scratch, in raw Assembly, with zero prior experience. In just seven weeks, they've gone from "Hello World" to full-blown cartridge-ready games. ## Meet the Jury: From Students to Masters Our judging panel knows exactly what it takes because they’ve been there. We’ve assembled an all-star team of UA graduates who turned their own final degree projects into Game Boy reality: - Alberto Rius Poveda ( Crea tus juegos para Gameboy, 2024 ) - Víctor Conejero Vicente ( Whyrm, 2022 ) - Ángel Jesús Terol Martínez ( Golden Sacra, 2020 ) - Enrique Vidal Cayuela ( Project Rogue, 2020 ) - Ángel Navarro Martínez ( Galahad Escape!, 2019 ) - Jesús Hernández Fernández ( Packedtory, 2019 ) ## 🌟 Special Guest Expert: Marc Robledo We're also honored to feature Marc Robledo, a renowned ROM hacker and tool creator whose work—including the industry-standard Rom Patcher JS and his stunning 'DX' colorizations of classic titles—has revitalized the modern Game Boy scene, as our guest expert. Whether you're a dev, a retro collector, or just love indie creativity, you don't want to miss this. Come hang out with us, support the next generation of developers, and discover the future classics of the Game Boy library. See you in the chat! 🚀

I was 8 when I was given a 48K ZX Spectrum and starting tinkering away straight away - I can still remember a lot of what I did in great detail. Annoyingly too, I've lost also all of of my graph paper doodles of speccy graphics, not sure where they went but again a few bits survive...

To plan the future, the PFC represents a step-by-step map of actions, and at every step, this plan moves to the past like a conveyor belt.

This proposes a simple subspace architecture for planning.

A toy environment can clarify it.

New preprint!

Working memory contents can be decoded from alpha band power. But does working memory maintenance really depend on these oscillations?

We say no, because we found that alpha power decoding only works for prioritized items, not deprioritized ones. 1/3

Sustained alpha oscillations serve attentional prioritization in working memory, not maintenance
Recent theory on the neural basis of working memory (WM) has attributed an important role to "activity-silent" mechanisms, suggesting that sustained neural activity might not be essential in the reten...
