Welcome to alxm.org!

This is the home of my personal projects. In my spare time I enjoy making small video games from scratch for different platforms I like. These days it's web, desktop Windows and Linux, and a handful of obscure systems that are fun to work with, like GP2X and Gamebuino.

I also post things at @alxmdev on Twitter and @alxm on GitHub. Thanks for visiting!

I've been slowly putting together my Emscripten Notes article, which goes over some of the changes and processes to adapt desktop C & SDL projects to run in the browser.

a2x is now called Faur. This is my personal C game framework that runs on Web, Linux, Windows, FreeBSD, GP2X, Wiz, Caanoo, Open Pandora, and as of this month, also the Arduino Zero-compatible Gamebuino Meta.

I wrote an article about building Gamebuino META games with a Makefile from the command line, instead of with the Arduino IDE. This gets you faster builds and more control over your projects.

Quick update Trap75 0.1.1 saves the hiscore.

Trap75 preview build 0.1.0 is out for Gamebuino META! This is a rewrite of the GP2X game with the same name.
