    Lol I’ve got a esp32-p4 and I struggled to get the included example working. So. We’re basically the same.

    It’s a very impressive chip but Tomb Raider, wow that’s fantastic

      The ESP-32 is actually more powerful than the original console the game was released on.

      I wonder about the graphics arrangement? An ESP32 doesn’t usually have video out.

        This is built on a P4 dev board with the screen attached, likely over QSPI or RGB888. either a buncha wires or a more buncha wires.

        You can drive screen output via the gpio pins quite easily. You can even do VGA output via I²S!

          I did not know I2S could do that. I thought it was digital audio.

            VGA is basically just a bunch of analog audio signals that, when timed correctly, happens to describe a field of pixels.
