I've started working on a little tool for creating retro games.

It consists of a C-like language with automatic garbage collection, and a runtime with a 320x240 color indexed display.
Can be run from cmd line, or as a vscode extension, which also gives you symbolic debugging.

The whole thing is written in C++ and SDL2, so should (eventually) be able to export to a bunch of platforms including Web Assembly.

apparently it's got a 200kg/h throughput

unfortunately i don't have a 300m² shop with at least 4m clearance, or else i'd contact them for a price quote
