Assembler
A Swift-based assembler for creating Gameboy games, supporting the full instruction set and producing executable binaries.
What is Assembler?
Gameboy Assembler is a Swift-based tool that compiles assembly code into executable Gameboy ROMs. It parses custom assembly syntax, generates machine code, and links symbols to produce binaries that run on Gameboy emulators. The project solves the need for a modern, accessible assembler tailored specifically for Gameboy development.
Retro gaming enthusiasts, hobbyists, and developers interested in creating or modifying Gameboy games using assembly language. It's particularly suited for those familiar with low-level programming and Gameboy hardware.
Developers choose Gameboy Assembler for its full support of the Gameboy instruction set, clear error reporting, and straightforward Swift-based implementation. It offers a specialized, lightweight alternative to generic assemblers, with a focus on Gameboy compatibility and ease of use.
