CanoCoder | CanoFlash

CanoFlash is LIVE on Kickstarter! Online multiplayer on original Game Boy Advance hardware, with games built using the CanoFlash SDK. Our first backers are already here. Thank you for helping make this happen! Back the project: kickstarter.com/projects/can…

CanoFlash still writes homebrew to your flash cart over Wi-Fi and backs up saves. Now it also takes those games online. The Kickstarter launches Sunday, September 20 at 17:00 CEST: kickstarter.com/projects/can…

To be clear about the limits: it only works in games built with the SDK, not in existing games. It's made for turn-based and slower real-time games, not 60 fps action, and it's been tested with two players so far.

The SDK is free and MIT-licensed: • Two C99 files, for devkitARM and Butano • Public matchmaking or private room codes • Player names and a room host • State updates and reliable events • Recovery from short Wi-Fi drops github.com/supercanocoder/ca…

How it works: the game runs from a flash cartridge and talks to CanoFlash through the Link Port. The ESP32-S3 handles Wi-Fi, TLS and the connection to the game server. The game just polls a small C API once per frame.

CanoFlash started as a Wi-Fi loader for the Game Boy Advance. Now it takes homebrew online. A GBA and a GBA SP, each with its own CanoFlash, meet in an online room and play together on original hardware. No PC, no console mods. 🧵 #GameBoyAdvance #GBAHomebrew
