Ive been working on the Delver mobile ports for about a month now? And mostly full time?
Turns out I’m crushing it? Problems I’ve been worried about for years are getting fixed! Heck I even got stencil buffers working for our fancy low res glow/shadows.

Lately I've been knocking the dust off of Delver Engine and working towards getting mobile builds going. So far it hasn't been _too_ bad, just normal levels of reviving a legacy code base. 😅

The first home computer I remember was my Dad’s Kaypro II. I was way too young to use it myself, but I fondly remember the green glow of the screen.

It turned out to be a one line fix (as these things often do). But my biggest struggle is that none of my Google searches surfaced this fix.
I somehow stumbled across ericwa's PR into SDL about this issue and just figured I'd ask them directly.

My primary backend is SDL2. So naturally I've tried all the usual suggestions. To fix it. Heck, I have a community PR from last year trying to fix it.
Nothing I've tried has fixed the issue. Maybe it's time to migrate to SDL3?
