This webpage contains TIC-80 resources made by borb, the developer of EMUUROM - the first TIC-80 game on Steam!

The aim of this page is to teach the basics of game development with TIC-80, programming with Lua, and version control with Git. The page is still very much work in progress, so adjust your expectations accordingly. All materials are linked below, readable as slides (🎞) or as a single page (📖). The moon cycle 🌑🌒🌓🌔🌕 tells how done the material for the corresponding topic is!

If you have any suggestions, hit me up - I'm @borbware on Discord.
