MagenBoot
A custom copyright free Gameboy (DMG) bootrom Im making for my own GameBoy emulator - MagenBoy
Current state
This project is currently WIP.
This my first time writing an actual software in any kind of assembly so any tips and suggestions are welcomed!
I tried to stracture the file in a sensible way but the code is still a bit messy.
Features
- Custom boot screen made by me
- Scrolling with a twist
Future plans
- Cycle accuracy with the original bootrom
- Sound
Building
- Make sure
makeandrgbdsare installed. (On Windows both can be installed with chocolatey package manager) - execute
make
Platforms
Built and tested on Windows 10 and Linux (Ubuntu 20.4)
Tools
The repo also contains a python script to encode a tile data binary file in order to inclde it in a small bootrom program (256 bytes).
