Thanks!
I changed 4 line clears to quads out of necessity, I hope you understand...
About saving on OpenFPGA, I had a look around but the GBA core is closed source and has no documentation so I don't know how to help you. You should probably ask around is some community that focuses on the Analogue Pocket... The game supports both SRAM and Flash saving, but I've seen some emulators that detect the save type using an official game database and otherwise disable saving. I would try copying a savefile from another game and renaming it to apotris.srm or whatever you named the rom, just in case this helps it detect the save type (don't worry about the save being different, if is read it should be hopefully detected and reformatted by my code).
I fully understand and guessed as much that this was the reason for removing it.
I tried your tip to copy another save, but sadly that didn't work either. But the save state feature solves that problem, other than not getting the rumble feature as that requires a restart and I wanted to try it through the GBA core with a rumble pack inserted.
Hmm I don't know how comfortable you are with things like this, but this should be the easiest way to do this. Using a hex editor, copy the first 192 bytes from a rom that supports rumble (Drill Dozer probably) onto the first 192 bytes of the Apotris rom. This should be the area you're replacing (up to and including the B0 row):
Though I'm pretty sure this would work, I can't test it myself so I can't be certain.
As for the cartridge, insideGadgets will definitely have more stock some time in the future! Seems like there's a part shortage unfortunately. You can also give your email to the store to be notified when more stock is available.
It works like a charm! Thank you! It certainly feels a bit gimmicky though, but it's still a nice addition to have.
I just registered at insidegadgets. Can't wait!
