- Added Lua bindings: game.set_frame_updates(bool) and INPUT.FRAME_TICK
- Updated LuaGame to support frame updates via registry flag
- Updated ball.lua to use continuous frame updates for smooth animation
- Both hardware and emulator now support continuous animation for physics/games

Emulator for basic1 Game Logic

This folder contains a desktop emulator for the basic1 game, using the same game logic and rendering libraries as the embedded version. The emulator uses SFML for graphics and input, allowing you to test and develop the game on your computer.

Features

Uses the same game logic and rendering code as the embedded firmware
Emulates touch with mouse clicks
Emulates hardware buttons with keyboard keys
Runs as a native desktop application (no Pico SDK required)

Build Instructions

Install SFML (https://www.sfml-dev.org/)
Run cmake . && make in this directory
Run ./basic1_emulator

Input Mapping

Mouse click: Emulates touch
Arrow keys, space, enter: Emulate hardware buttons

Extending

Add new features or overlays for debugging
Update input mapping as needed

This emulator is independent from the embedded build system.
