Hell yeah, it's worth continuing! This game engine for the Sega Dreamcast looked absolutely amazing!.

Time for a KallistiOS GameCube update! Besides some loose ends, the KOS kernel is ported and all the foundational stuff like threads, context switching, interrupt handling, etc. are working. A bunch of the basic KOS examples/tests now build and run for GameCube. Wrote some
