Hi everyone,

I’m Burak, a C/C++ (and recently assembly) programmer jumping into Dosember with a few different projects on my plate and thought I’d introduce myself. Last jam I worked on Cat Burglar, a little MS-DOS project that actually made it to submission, and since then I’ve been pushing further into retro development. Right now I’m experimenting with CyberVGA, my own 3D software renderer for DOS, running under DPMI with Borland C and assembly. It’s been a good way to practice low-level graphics and memory management while still keeping things fun.

I’ve also started development of a new game called Metaphor. The plan is for a short ARPG, where the main character gradually discovers shamanic abilities through the natural world. It’s early days, but I’d like to build it out with a proper sense of progression in both story and gameplay.

All kinds of help are welcome — code, art, design feedback, or just sharing your thoughts. I’ll try to share progress and lessons learned along the way by sending new dev logs, and I’m always happy to swap knowledge. Looking forward to seeing what everyone else is making this jam.

Have a great day!
