projects
2024 NES Emulator - NesScape
  • A Nintendo Entertainment System (NES 8bit) emulator implemented in C++ that aims to provide cycle accurate emulation of the original NTSC NES hardware. CPU implemented with all 256 opcodes cycle accurate. PPU implemented with accurate pixel rendering and sprite0 hit detection, and scrolling via loopy-registers. APU contains fully working pulse, triangle and noise channels while DMC channel is mostly implemented. The most common iNES mappers implemented (NROM, MMC1B, UxROM, AxROM and UN1ROM).

2025 CPU-based physics particle simulation (weekend project)
  • Developed a CPU-based particle simulation, in C++, as a focused weekend project to explore performance limits. Successfully simulated ~30000 physics-based particles (2-6 px) in a 1800x1200 world, at a stable 60 FPS. Implemented full particle to particle collision handling, and rendered all particles in a single draw call using quads via a vertex array. Optimized update performance through basic spatial partitioning and multithreaded processing.
