claude code basically just one shot a mac verson of a c64 ultimate remote viewer for me. admittedly i was able to give it an example repo of the OBS plugin to use as a reference but i am pretty impressed that this works out of the gate
Got native video recording baked in… Swapping between the different shader presets that are baked in.
Welp in less than a day I have a new app to sell on the App Store for some more passive income!
Link to a reddit post on the r/c64 subreddit where I am promoting the beta:
I have to figure out why video uploading sometimes refuses to work in this damn discourse..
Oh videos were failing because I have the limit set to 50mb whoops.. forgot..
This video is so low resolution you can’t even see the scanlines…
Reddit thread for the beta yielded 32 downloads, not bad. No real feedback though. So either it works great and everyone is happy, or it destroyed everyone’s computers and they couldn’t respond.
Submitted 1.0 to Apple for review!
Here’s the screenshots I threw together for the app’s page.
And here’s the demo video I recorded for App Review…
Fingers crossed it’s a speedy review. The video always helps.
We’re rapidly approaching 48 hours since I submitted it for review and it’s still “Waiting for Review”, which is pretty unusual… maybe the person who reviews my apps is off during this part of the week or something.
I emailed App Review support today asking why it’s been 4 days with no review and my app went into review 15 minutes later. And then it was rejected because they think I don’t need one of the entitlements, but I do, I tested it and responded. So we’re getting closer!
I kept getting rejected by App Review for the Viewer app, for valid reasons and not stupid / fiasco reasons, so I went ahead and essentially made the v 2.0 of the app and renamed it to C64 Ultimate Toolbox. Here’s the video I sent to App Review.
And it’s up on the App Store!
Already doing tech support for someone who bought the app on the App Store. Nice!
Tonight I started to work on more features. One new one inspired by the web interface built into the C64 Ultimate: a “BASIC Scratchpad” area, with full syntax highlighting and command helpers.
