Vesmor

Vesmor is a Fantasy Video Game Console.

It is inspired by old arcade games (such as Star Wars from 1983) and Vectrex, a home console with a vector display.

It features a custom scripting language, called Vesmish, that is functional, declarative, statically typed and interpreted.

The limitation of this console is that it can only draw vector graphics (currently only lines, maybe more to come).

More detailed information can be found in the manual included with the devkit.

State

It's mostly working, enough to make simple-ish games. Some language features are not implemented yet (mainly generics-related stuff and quality of life). I am also planning to add sound to the console one day.

Code

This repo contains two modules: vesmish and vesmor.

vesmish

vesmish contains a Rust crate that includes the interpreter for the language.

A CLI is not implemented yet, so it can really be only used as a library.

vesmor

vesmor contains the console itself. It is composed of a Rust part: nannou app that can be compiled natively or to WASM; and a web part: svelte website that embeds the WASM console and includes code editor.
