50 meaningful regular expressions in Perl in one weekend. Sounds mega exciting, doesn't it? 🥱
How about 50 TIC-80 carts in 48 hours? Quite an accomplishment. The unfortunately unknown author named blinry has taken on this challenge, and 50 working mini programs are impressive to say the least.
In the time, in which others do not even completely set up modern software development frameworks with all dependencies, blinry has written 50 working and independent demo programs for the fantasy console TIC-80. If you don't know it yet, we recommend our Issue #11.
The ingenious thing about it: For each cart you can directly view and manipulate the source code, and thanks to TIC-80 also execute it directly in the browser.
If you thought about learning Lua and and tinker with Pico-8, the free alternative TIC-80 is highly recommended. And thanks to blinry, the perfect introduction can be found here.
Happy coding.
