I originally sent the image in an ASCII art form, but thought that it would be interesting to exploit the bitmap-only capabilities of the machine.

Here are some pictures that show my early attempts :]

On my main computer, I've written a small Python program to send each 8-bit pixel pack while compensating with the bitmap memory layout. Nothing impressive here, just that the `time.sleep` calls help compensating the remote machine's slowness.

The issue is that the Amstrad CPC doesn't have a "linear" bitmap screen. What I mean by this is that the lines are split in a bizarre way to accomodate with the CRTC chip of the machine.

Things get weirder with other video modes, mode 2 is actually not too bad.

This is a small project that I've worked on this evening just to experiment with my serial module.

I've written a simple Basic program that reads from that serial device, and pokes each byte to the screen region.

Hey, here's a simple proof of concept of a roguelike game that I've developed in my spare time with #tic80! :]
Not much is happening, but the basic concept is there.
I wish I had more time to develop on it though...😩
