I wanted to make an NDS demo in 2024 but
never found the motivation to actually get
started. What finally motivated me was an
old video of mine where I did a very basic
effect on the DS back in 2013.
Things just worked out this time and I was
happy to see the progress.
Halfway through the development I switched
from devkitARM to blocksDS and some issues
that I kept having with emulators and also
freezing audio disappeared. The docs are
much better, too.
It's a bit disappointing that not a lot of
NDS prods get released these days so I hope
to make a difference with this entry.
To anyone interested in making their own NDS
demo, I'd greatly recommend blocksDS, it
ended up saving me some headaches.
Thanks to SGCMarkus for being a good rubber-
duck for the much needed debugging work.
Also helped me spot some OpenGL-ish issues
I had here and there. Without him, I might
not have gotten to the end line here.
Special greetings to PoroCYon for their dedi-
cation to this platform. Without them, we
would have even fewer prods. Not just be-
cause they make most of them. But also that.
Greetings are in the .nds - go run it.
