How to start development (on Linux)

• prerequisites: get docker and docker-compose
• clone repository
• go to the root of the repository
• build docker image with make build_image
• optional: get include files with make getincludes (make deleteincludes to remove them)
• recommended: install mGBA

How to start the Game

• use make compile to compile the source (you'll find it in the /out folder)
• or use make run to compile and run the compiled game
  • probably needs to be configured for your emulator in case you use an other than visualboyadvance
• make cleanup to delete all the build data again

Whats my goal of that project?

• to learn C basics
• to learn basics of the GBA
• gaining experience in DevOps (Docker, CI/CD)
• gaining practice with my gba docker template

Convert Images with grit

• use make grit img=[your path starting from the, excluding, /code folder] args="[your arguments]"
  • for example: make grit img=img/pong_logo.png args="-ftc -gb -gB16"
• after that just include the generated file and memcopy your image to the vram
  • for example: tonccpy(m4_mem, pong_logoBitmap, 76800)
