Hello World, My first from scratch Megadrive rom

Discussion in 'Technical Discussion' started by SoullessSentinel, Jan 21, 2010.

  1. After playing around with Sonic hacking for a while, I decided it would help my ASM skills if I started to make my own simple programs.

    I know Hello World programs are nothing spectacular, but I am releasing it anyway, as it contains a very simple GYM music player (68k based)
    Source code is included, and is commented, so may be useful as a template, or to aid people just getting started with Megadrive development.

    I also welcome constructive criticism on the code, as being my first program, I expect to have done many things wrong and would like to improve my knowledge of Assembly techniques.

    Tested and working in Gens and Kega, it SHOULD work on hardware, but I am unsure, as I have no way to test.

    Pretty cool. I took a look at your source and cleaned it up a bit.

    It's mainly aesthetic changes to the way the code itself looks, but I also did some optimization and better defined some of the comments.
    Hope it helps.
