Baldur’s Gate III Demake on the Tandy TRS-80 Model 100

Considered the “Model T” of laptops, the Tandy TRS-80 Model 100 was arguabley the first successful notebook computer.

Alex Bowen de-made 2023’s Baldur’s Gate III to play on the 40 year old hardware. Via Hackaday:

But as handy and capable as that integrated development environment might have been, it never produced anything as impressive as this Baldur’s Gate III “demake” created by [Alex Bowen]. Written in assembly, the game’s engine implements a subset of the Dungeons & Dragons Systems Reference Document (SRD), and is flexible enough that you could use it to produce your own ASCII art role-playing game that can run on either a Model 100 emulator like Virtual-T or on the real hardware
