I'm checking out the new open source 8-bit AGON light system that doubles as a microcontroller-like device with GPIO pins. AGON light homepage: https://www.thebyteattic.com/p/agon.html The Byte Attic video series about creating & using the AGON: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDf2uklC__d19aBeKd8OXMdupeDaAiAR4 AGON light main GitHub repository: https://github.com/TheByteAttic/AgonLight AGON Quark MOS firmware GitHub: https://github.com/breakintoprogram/agon-mos AGON firmware update utility GitHub: https://github.com/envenomator/agon-flash AGON version of BBC BASIC: https://github.com/breakintoprogram/agon-bbc-basic R.T. Russell's BBC BASIC website: https://www.bbcbasic.co.uk/index.html Arduino IDE download: https://www.arduino.cc/en/software OSSC open source scan converter: https://videogameperfection.com/products/open-source-scan-converter/ The sample unit AGON light shown in the video was provided to me for free by the Agon team, the review is not biased in any other way.
