A New Way to use Meowbit

We’ve all seen the GameSlots Firmware for the Meowbit by @AqeeAqee and I for one was very impressed. I was inspired to start working on my own custom firmware for the Meowbit which is why I am creating BetterMeowbit. BetterMeowbit is custom firmware for the Meowbit that (should) reimplement gameslots, improve performance, and add a UI (Hopefully more features, I’m open to suggestions) I currently have a GitHub Repo but I would strongly advise not flashing it to your Meowbit as it is currently in early phases and the custom firmware is not ready to accept games yet. Let me know if you have any questions and I hope you are all as excited as I am about this new firmware!

How can we implement this into our meowbit when it releases

When i say it’s safe to download, I will release a file which you can flash to your meowbit. Unfortanently, the project is currently facing some headwinds so it could be a week or two, I will keep people updated in this thread.

(as of right now the firmware is just nearing the creation of its bootup screen which has taken me a couple hours, so there is still a lot to accomplish)

BIG NEWS! I’ve managed to fix a small issue it the libopencm3 repo that wasn’t allowing me to build. The new repo can be found here: https://github.com/HomeAssistantTycoon/BetterMeowbit Expect an experimental minimal mod today or tomorrow.

DO NOT USE THE flasher.uf2 ARTIFACT IN YOUR MEOWBIT. It will cause a half-brick and it will overwrite all other files. Until I figure out how to unbrick my Meowbit this project is suspended indefinitely.
