Some background info. I have like no experience with programming. I know basic Linux and that's about it. I also want to start game development.

I'd like to learn some skills and the fundamentals so I can eventually move to a slightly bigger project.

From what I've heard I'm between gbstudio, tic 80 and Godot. Where do I start?

Uhh.

Is there a tic80 build for riscv?

The standard .deb doesn't work

Oh, oops, that is of course sad :/

I'm not aware of there being a special build targeting riscv - maybe some searching around could find someone who did one? Other than that, I guess you could try compiling the source yourself - I guess that could end up being an exercise in itself.

Personally, I started developing in Godot, just fired up a tutorial two months ago and went from there, so unfortunately I am not that familiar with tic80 beyond a very superficial level :/
