duster

a sleek strategy game for the gba

written with the D programming language. as far as i know, this is the only non-trivial gba game written in D! D support comes from my work on [gba_dlang], providing library bindings, minimal runtime, and build scripts to run D on bare metal gba!

build

requirements

• version control: git
• gba toolchain: devkitarm (packages: tonc, grit)
• dlang llvm compiler: ldc2
• atlas packer: crunch

from source

go to src/DusterGBA

# fetch and update submodules
git submodule update --init --recursive
# build with debug flag
make build DEBUG=1

this will output Duster.gba

to check the GAME_VERSION of a built rom, run:

strings Duster.gba | grep '$DUSTER'
