It's time to recap what our members were working on during the last month of 2025! As always, remember to check out the project threads and vote for your favorite completed project of December!
- 8xk Disassembler: ti_kid has been working on a .8xk disassembler, focusing on apps for Z80 calculators. They've identified where execution starts and started work on the disassembler portion of the program.
- Ascend CE!: AchakTheFurry announced a sequel to their game "Jumperz!", which uses TI-BASIC and CelticCE. So far, the game features a level editor with support for a variety of different obstacles and objects for the player to interact with. Once the game engine is completed, they plan to work on the game's levels and story.
- Befunge Interpreter for the Ti83+ line of calculators: Jeff calc 84 wrote a file converter for their Befunge interpreter this month, making use of Python with the tivars_lib_py library. For those unfamiliar, Befunge is an esoteric programming language where code is laid out on a two-dimensional grid.
- BmpToConvfnt: merthsoft created a utility for quickly converting a bitmap file to an ascii font for use with convfont / FontLibC. The program has a number of useful features, including the ability to provide an input text file for mapping characters to glyphs. In the future, they may also create a web version of the utility and add output support for the .FNT file format.
- HD Picture Viewer [C] [TI-84 Plus CE]: TheLastMillennial added support for 1, 2, and 4 bit color to their picture viewer, meaning it now supports images using 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 bit color! Additionally, they added back pan and zoom support for 16bpp images, as well as making use of convimg's dithering support for the picture converter to significantly improve the appearance of images using lower color depth.
- [TI-NSPIRE CX II] NZP - CoD Zombies Demake: naievil, along with the NZ:P team, announced a demake of Call of Duty Zombies for the TI-Nspire CX II. The game makes use of nQuake and includes a number of maps and weapons, with easter eggs as well. It's quite an impressive project, so be sure to give it a try and check out the thread for a video demo!
- Random Things: StephenM's "Random Things" topic serves as a collection of smaller projects they've published which they deemed didn't warrant a full topic. This month, they posted a TI-BASIC breakout game!
- ScreenSaver CE: APD powered screensaver animations: merthsoft, RoccoLox Programs, and TIny_Hacker released their screensaver program, with 9 new animations from merthsoft for a collection of 16 total. Additionally, the animations are now stored in separate AppVars, making it easier to add more in the future.
- TI-Planet's "Project Builder" with online CE C/C++: Adriweb added documentation for TI-BASIC functions TI-Planet's web IDE this month, which can be viewed by holding ctrl/cmd and hovering over a function with your mouse in the editor. They also added a BBCode module with a real-time preview!
- TinyTurtle: A lightweight Turtle Graphics module for HP Prime: komame has created a lightweight implementation of Python's turtle module optimized for the HP Prime. The module supports a standard mode (seen below) where drawing is performed in real time, along with a viewport mode which renders the image and then allows the user to scale and pan.
- Train Simulator Controller: KermMartian completed hardboard prototypes for the remaining four panels in their (quite impressive!) train simulator controller project. While they have yet to collect some of the remaining electronics, the project is taking shape quickly. Be sure to check out the thread for more photos!
- txttobasic - a program that converts text files to TI-BASIC: frootdaproot has written a Python program to easily convert text files to TI-BASIC programs to be read on your calculator. The script supports .epub, .txt, and .pdf file types, and will split large files across multiple programs.
- Undertale on calculator: Znak_Pares restructured the code for their TI-BASIC Undertale game, moving the maps to their own program, adding more levels, and improving the rendering system to support more solids and decorations in each level.
- World of Squares (PC MMO): VitalAsh announced their voxel MMO game, featuring cute animals, dangerous mobs, and a cube violin (among many other things)! The game is available for free, so be sure to give it a try!
That wraps up December's projects! Be sure to vote in the poll and keep an eye out for the Projects of the Year in a few weeks!
