Nox Archaist Game Boxes, Cloth Maps and Floppy Disks Oh My!

The materials for fulfilling the rewards for our Nox Archaist Kickstarter Campaign are starting to roll in!


Chris Torrence is not just the host of the Assembly Lines Podcast, he is heading up the 6502 Workshop assembly line!

When the cartons of game boxes and cloth maps arrived, he had fun making a pyramid and might build a castle later, just so somebody can storm it 🙂











And, we managed to rustle up thousands of 5.25" floppy disks!





We're totally retro here. Even our USB sticks look like floppy disks!









More materials are still in process as we work toward the culmination of this exciting 4+ year project.

Thanks for your interest in Nox Archaist!

Nox Archaist Presentation At KansasFest

If you like to talk tech, you might enjoy the YouTube replay of our presentation last month at KansasFest 2019.

I demonstrated techniques for solving intermittent bugs in 6502 assembly programs with the MicroM8 emulator's time travel feature. An intermitted bug in the Nox Archaist game engine (now solved) was used for the demonstration.

Additionally, I also talk about some of the highlights of 2019 for the Nox Archaist project and several announcements were shared. Click below if you'd like to skip directly to the highlights/announcements portion of the presentation .

Nox Archaist Apple IIgs Enhanced Version

We are pleased to announce that 6502 Workshop now has plans to produce an Apple IIgs enhanced version of Nox Archaist!






While the 8-bit version of Nox Archaist currently in development will run on an Apple IIgs, the enhanced version we've added to our product road map will take advantage of the IIgs system's 16-bit graphics and sound capabilities.


And, the project will be led by none other than Apple IIgs expert Burger Becky!







(Nox Archaist Developer Mark Lemmert and Burger Becky at KansasFest 2019)



To be clear, work on the Apple IIgs version of Nox Archaist is a separate project from the 8-bit version and the associated Kickstarter 2019 campaign. Work will begin on the IIgs version after the 8-bit version is released.

Thank you for your ongoing interest and support!
