This repository contains the full source for the Asspull IIIx ROM files — the BIOS and boot firmware, and a handful of functionality tests. They can be built in devkitPro... is what I would like to say but I must've misremembered where I got devkit68K from. So grab this copy and unpack it in your devkitPro directory or whatever, and make sure you set DEVKIT68K=/opt/devkitPro/devkit68K (to match what devkitPro put). That should set you up well enough. If you don't have devkitPro installed, you don't actually need any of the specific kits, just the base system. A copy of grit is included in the devkit68K archive and I'm thinking of writing my own anyway.
For that matter, you'll also need Python 3.8 or later installed, so you can use the included tools. If the graphics related tools don't work, run pip install Pillow and try again.
These two folders are the source for disk1.img and disk2.img, as built with the included copy of bfi.exe.
A work-in-progress classic BASIC interpreter. The same source file is shared between the A3X version and a Visual Studio 2015 project for ease of testing.
This is the complete source of the BIOS and boot firmware. It compiles to ass-bios.apb ("asspull bios") and contains several functions available to other programs, subdivided into a couple different libraries, Amiga style.
It's Columns, and it's in development.
Contains the linker scripts and such. Merge it into devkitPro's devkit68K folder.
A small "Hello World" variant that demonstrates how to identify and use an external line printer device.
Hello World, but as a file on a bootable diskette. It compiles straight into _disk2_ as an app file ("asspull program"), that you can run from the Navigator.
Testing api-format images, but with HDMA gradients baked in.
Much the same as fromdisk, but as a cart application.
A toy piano. Use the keyboard to play notes, change octaves with the left and right arrow keys, and change instruments with the up and down arrow keys.
A more graphical Hello World featuring the previous, placeholder mascot. Should be updated and renamed.
A work-in-progress JRPG framework.
An attempt to make a Gradius-style horizontal space shooter.
Tries to display all the api files on the currently-inserted diskette.
Your classic snake game. Not Nibbles -- that would require level layouts. Maybe later?
The classic box pushing puzzle.
A test suite that will eventually cover all features of the system.
It's Tetris, and it's in development.
Early work to test the games console-style tilemap mode.
Normally, the A3X draws 240 or 480 lines, but by setting the bold font flag in graphics mode you can make it draw 200 or 400 lines, stretched.
- Get DevkitPro and install at least devkit68k.
- Copy the contents of the
devkit68Kdirectory into DKP's. - From this repo's directory, try running
make. - If that worked, you should have a bunch of
ap3files, among others. - Make a new folder for your project and copy the contents of
helloworldinto it. Note that the makefile refers to../ass_romrules, so if you want it somewhere else adjust the makefile accordingly. - Change the
TARGETvariable in the makefile, and the internal name incrt0.s. - Check if it builds.
- Study
ass.hand any relevant other projects well. The rest is not entirely unlike any other console.
