assembly language is not impossibly hard but it is probablyharder than lsdj. if you already tried any sort of computer programming (not html) before you will find it even easier

you are probably capable of doing it you just have to not expect to be able to make TRACKER LIKE LSDJ BUT WAY BETTERER AND AWESOMER within your first week. in fact it will be demoralising that you havent achieved anything you can show otherpeople in the early part of learning assembly  language but it won't take very long before you can make something you are proud of

yeah, that was my experience with assembly code and the NES too. keep your expectations realistic and it can be really rewarding.

i have a pile of source code from other GB demos + tools (like rollercoaster) if anyone wants them, great for learning. GB dev is a little over my head, I did everything I wanted to do (timer, palette fade, hblank effect, read input, made a stop watch) but with all the little things you have to consider its tough to be creative. Making demos or tools working in a team would be aweeeeeeeeesooooooomeeeeeeee

i would love to learn a little bit about gb dev. i've done a bit of stuff for the NES (all of which was super simple) but i think it would be awesome to write programs for a portable device.

It's tough to say, but I think Bit Shifter's "Strange Comfort" is definitely up there.

i might agree with this. such a perfect song.

the rps shit is raddddd. The sampler allows you to hook up a drum pad and dynamic play any sound you sample into it.

uhhhhhh, that sounds awesome. i've bought so much gear recently though. i don't know if i can justify more purchases right now. BUT I WANT IT TOO. ugh.

It would be great to make a cart with a SID chip on the board. Then run the 3 channels of SID audio out the 1 line to the DMG, with LSDJ running all 7 channels! FRANKENCHIP!

i wonder if the gameboy's cpu is powerful enough to play all that music at once.

technically, it could provide many more channels of audio to a gameboy program, right?
