BREADBOX is a retro computer simulator program.
It's also a project under development and nothing has been released yet.
Estimated to be available in Early access soon (Dec 2021?).
Objective
The aim of the project BREADBOX is to provide immersive and visual user experience of retro computers in a simulation.
Desired characteristics
- Visual look of retro machines.
- Immersive First Person view experience, with animated objects, hardware mechanics and authentic sounds.
- A fully working computers, with fluent emulator integration.
Why?
To preserve computer culture of course. We believe that preserving the authentic way of using retro computers and give people an opportunity to experience it, is worth a project.
Different actions for computer culture preservation has already been done or started. And that is just great news!
But it looks like there is a gap and that is the basis of this project.
The Project
This will be a quite massive project and in reality, it will never end.
There will always be some computer model, additional peripheral, software feature or technical detail which is not yet implemented. Hence, the project will be developed iteratively, additional features and models will be added piece by piece.
Project status
- Development of Early access version <- current state
- Beta testing
- Release of Early access version
- Maturing product - stage 1 (some bugfix releases)
- Release with some additional model
- Maturing product - stage 2 (some bugfix releases)
- Transition to 'Full' release version
- Continual release iterations with additional models and features
Computer models included in current version
- Commodore PET-2001-8
- Commodore VIC-20
- Commodore 64
