Developer's Guide

This page contains details on setting up the development environment for writing your own software for GameTiger console

Building the firmware

First install required packages

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install  git cmake build-essential gcc-arm-none-eabi libnewlib-arm-none-eabi libstdc++-arm-none-eabi-newlib

Clone the main repo

git clone https://github.com/codetiger/GameTiger-Console

Clone pico-sdk and pico-extras repository, since we will need them for compiling our code

git clone -b master --recurse-submodules https://github.com/codetiger/pico-sdk
git clone -b master --recurse-submodules https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-extras

Set required environment variables (make sure to use proper paths depending upon your setup)

export PICO_SDK_PATH=/workspace/pico-sdk
export PICO_TOOLCHAIN_PATH=/usr
export PICO_EXTRAS_PATH=/workspace/pico-extras

Now let us compile the software for GameTiger console

cd GameTiger-Console
cmake .
make

On successful completion, you should see something similar to below output:

[ 97%] Performing build step for 'PioasmBuild'

Once the compilation is successful, a firmware file called 'GameTiger.uf2' should be generated in the 'GameTiger-Console' folder. Power on the console by holding the boot button and copy the 'GameTiger.uf2' to the device.
