That's very unusual! What was your motivation for creating an o/s simulator?

In high school, I had classes teaching how operating systems worked on deeper levels, and since then, the idea of making my own has been hammering my mind. It was originally supposed to be made for the Atari 2600 but I figured that the Gameboy would be a much more fair choice.

Do you mean that I can really have your Windows 95 simulator on my gameboy, if I want?

Yeah, if you put the ROM on a flashcard, it’ll work.

If you like this kind of challenge, Pico8 seems interesting (it use Lua language, and they have special offer for schools, that could interest your school for the price) https://www.lexaloffle.com/pico-8.php?page=schools and to try some little pico 8 games https://www.lexaloffle.com/pico-8.php . one last questions did you use GB studio? And is it easy to learn?

I checked Pico8 already, even though I never got myself into it.

I did use GB Studio for this project and it is incredibly easy to learn, since it uses drag and drop programing.
