New version of buckshot github.com/digarok/buck..., Apple II image converter, now with Apple IIgs support! Have fun converting modern images to 8-bit and 16-bit Apple II formats. Load it up in your favorite emulator, transfer to real disks/flash storage, or share retro previews on your socials.

I like 65816 Assembly Language. I like making things. I'm responsible for GSplus emulator, though I'm shifting focus back to core KEGS. Hopefully have more news soon.
I'm excited to announce the reboot (pun intended) of my Apple IIgs emulator project, GSplus - free, open-source, cross-platform Apple IIgs emulator based on KEGS and SDL3 Mac/Nix/Win. CRT Sim, gamepads, drag-n-drop images, debugger, & more! site: apple2.gs/plus/ project: github.com/digarok/gsplus
Built a IIgs using a Mean Well PSU to play around with Double Dragon IIgs over the weekend. 🤪 www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Zmb...

Playing with the Platinum color 3D printer filament. Made a simple gamepad case for my Apple II "funpad". Would people be interested in such a thing if I sold them?
@museumjoe.bsky.social Quick 3d print test and I'm satisfied. Review: -cost: $21.99+$9.58 -very good for niche product (can't always get free shipping) -speed: 4 biz days to Midwest US -great -color match: excellent Score 5/5. Didn't need, but if you have a IIgs and printer,you OWE it to yourself.
A video for Apple IIgs Desktop programmers. Bill Atkinson (of Atkinson Dithering and Apple Lisa/Mac fame) gives great insight on the design principles of QuickDraw, Regions, FontManager, and other pieces that would eventually become part of the Mac and Apple IIgs toolbox calls. youtu.be/kGIIwyJ7G94

After too many weeks, my TCP/IP Link Layer driver is finally working! But I still have many fixes and optimizations to do. Code (and card) coming soon. The card is not my work. I'm just working on Apple IIgs firmware/support. I wanted to wait, but here's a sneak peek. youtube.com/shorts/lG_Ob...

Two weeks ago we had a really fun game jam for the Foenix 256. I was able to do a complete text adventure in 2 days and added graphics in the finale. It's a great little machine and easy to program if you know 6502-type machines (or BASIC). www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7nh... github.com/digarok/fnxg...
