The jointed animations are looking a lot more refined. Poor guy looks to be really struggling out there in zero gravity - surprisingly realistic, I think?!
This is purely procedural (i.e. lots of sin functions driving it). Turning into a neat little engine!

(Tweaked the animation... it's the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane)

Adding a WiringPi module to TIC-80's Python interpreter rvr.typepad.com/wind/2025/03/a

This is a project that I worked on last weekend. TIC-80 is one of the most popular open source "fantasy consoles", imaginary retro-console emulators with IDE for code, sprites, maps and music. I show how to extend TIC-80's Python interpreter, pocketpy, to add GPIO access for the Raspberry Pi.

Edit: Just uploaded the code to github.

I've just discovered by complete accident that Ctrl+Enter will instantly run your project without having to go to the console and type "run". I didn't know that! That should save me a little bit of time when playtesting.
