Lets Make A Retro Game – Episode 6 – Z80 Loops, Conditions and Bits
Electric Adventures
This is the 6th video in my series, where I am going to work through the steps required to make a home brew game for a retro 8-bit console or computer system.
In each episode I will work through various topics, such as tools, methods and design.
All of the information referenced in each episode will have an associated article on my web site.
In this episode we are going to cover a few more essential concepts in Z80 assembler.
We will cover:
– Loops
– Conditions
– Bytes, Bits and Nibbles
The corresponding article with all download links and more detail on what is covered in this episode is available on my website here:

Next episode we will be going back to looking at our game and get some objects moving on the screen in response to input from the controls.
