_WASM 3d CPU Rendering On a 2d Fantasy Console?_

[Gamercade] by @RobDavenport is a WASM powered fantasy console focused
on building multiplayer neo-retro games.

After over half a year in development, Gamercade and related tools are ready
for pre-alpha testing. This includes the [console](Gamercade-Console) itself,
as well as the [editor](Gamercade-Editor).

Gamercade's killer feature is ease of developing multiplayer games.
The console is able to simplify networked game development process
in the best way possible: build a local multiplayer game, and get full online
play for free!

The WASM Api features powerful but simple built-in features like input,
2d graphics, random number generation, and more. Limitations do exist, but are
flexible, such as resolutions up to 1920 x 1080, and a maximum of 256 color
palettes with up to 64 colors each.

The community around the project is small, but is looking to expand.
Come on over to the [subreddit](Gamercade-Subreddit), or hang out and chat
on [discord](Gamercade-Discord), where the developers interact with members
and post updates daily. The project is newly [open source](Gamercade-Github) and
looking for contributors, suggestions, as well as awesome game demos.
