Announcing 8bit-Unity: Cross-platform SDK for 8bit games

[8bit-Dude]

Hey guyz,

Last month I released 8bit-Slicks for the C64, Atari XL and Apple//e. It is the first cross-platform online game for 8bit era computers.

While developping the game, I organized my project into a "game" part, and a "SDK" part, for future re-use. It then occured to me that other people would benefit from this base for development of cross-platform 8bit games.

So I am announcing the planned release of 8bit-Unity in the second quarter of 2019. The SDK will contain everything to let you create simple online 8bit games in C code once, and deploy on all supported platforms easily (C64, Atari XL, Apple//e, and more in future!).

So they tuned!!!

Looks quite interesting. Do you plan support for the BBC Micro at all?

Thanks,

Indeed. After initial release, my next two targets will be the Oric Atmos and the Acorn Beebs/Elk.
