Hi! I’m a hobbyist who builds custom firmware for gaming handhelds and music devices.
I also create and adapt ports of older games for Chinese gaming handhelds.
My main project right now is Ambrola, an alternative firmware for the Dirtywave M8 Model:02. It turns the M8 into a portable studio with a traditional DAW-style workflow, designed around recording guitar and bass without a laptop.
Ambrola is written from scratch using open-source libraries. It’s an independent, unofficial project and uses no code, sounds, or presets from Dirtywave’s firmware.
You’ll find updates on Ambrola, game ports, and my other firmware projects here.
