SMS Experiment, Day 2

Today was about trying to build and run the GSLIb example. (https://github.com/sverx/GSL)

I kept hitting linker errors due to differences in calling conventions between the pre-built SMSLib and PSGLib libraries from devkitSMS and the GSLib code. A SMSPower forum user suggested building the libraries locally. Turns out that worked. So now I have a building and running GSLib example I can play around with.

I didn’t want to write my own scrolling code as my previous attempt wasn’t performant enough, so I’m looking forward to experimenting with it.
