Hola, amigos!

Hi there! A future new comer from Spain here!
I'd ordered my Gamebuino yesterday and I can't wait to play and make stuff with it ;)

Fair to say I came here searching for Arduboy information :P
Just saw the Gamebuino specs and bought it :lol:

Thanks rodot for make such a tiny, cute and modest piece of hardware.

I have several ideas for a platformer game and I started to draw some concepts already; I'll post some mockups later in another thread to get some feedback from you guys.

Hope to have lots of fun with you, people!

Heya, Welcome to the Gamebuino forums!
I sure hope you'll enjoy your stay.
Do you already have any previous programming experience?

Thanks for the welcome and yes, I've been doing software engineering for almost ten years right now… :P

I'm doing web development using Rails right now. I know that's nothing to do with system programming but I learned C in my spare time.
Besides I like retro computing and I did some tiny programs in 6502 assembler for the C64 and now I'm focus on the MSX standar (which I love).

So, as you can see, I have a long history with retro videogames and seeing a new 8-bit handheld hyped me a lot :lol:

Sounds nice! Looking forward to what you'll come up with for the Gamebuino!
