I need to really wrap my head around all this byte and low level hackery. It all feels magical. The tutorial is definitely good and I can see what the aim is. I like how the author is building from tiny steps to a larger thing but it's just not meshing.

Usually at this point I would change the tutorial and find something else that might help but with uxn there isn't enough content for that. I'll need to continue struggling through and hopefully something will click.

I am getting the stack machine concept and chaining things. I can also see the abstractions being created.

Nasu is cool but I still don't get it. I made a tiny little image and got that into my rom so I'm happy :)
