Welcome
Hello, I'm Raphaël Assenat. I grew up near Montreal, Canada. I have always had a strong interest for computers and electronics, and over the years, I completed several projects in those fields. I setup this website to share some of them.
What I find most enjoyable is using C and assembly to program embedded systems (micro-controllers) and video games for old consoles and computers. I also love video games from the 80's and 90's, which is why a majority of my projects also have something to do with with games...
I just hope that you will find something useful here, or otherwise worthy of interest. Cheers!
Support me!
