Forth for the TIC-80 fantasy console
I've added forth (using jforth) to the fantasy console TIC-80:
https://github.com/luginf/TIC-80/
Following the pico-8 trend of retro-like console, TIC-80 is using lua (which is already a cool langage). There are other backends as well, such as js, ruby, python. Forth was missing :)
There are a few examples / samples:
https://gitlab.com/garvalf/forth-is-fun/-/tree/main/tic80
You can also try it online:
https://garvalf.gitlab.io/forth-is-fun/tic80/run.html
type "ls" or "dir", then "load" one of the .fth sample name, and type "run"
The full API is listed there, adapted to Forth: https://garvalf.gitlab.io/forth-is-fun/tic80/tic80.html
You can get more informations about TIC-80 on:

- https://github.com/nesbox/TIC-80/wiki/tutorials (most of them are for the lua backend but you can adapt it)
