Oh, that sounds pretty simple. Now I know where to look.
I think I will be using Visual Code for IDF.

Re: Game ROM on SD card
I found how I can set up partitions from Arduino IDE and how to send a new program through OTA.
But I can't find how esp32 can do it to itself.

Re: Game ROM on SD card
Am I understanding the idea right? Need to have 2 partitions - one active firmware with OTA code and the second as a buffer for changed firmware and esp32 will send the new update itself to that buffer. If so it seems like a super perfect solution.

Re: Game ROM on SD card
@Radu79 Being able to put login on SD card or not will mean that this project will be interesting for others or just me. My goal is to have a Gameboy-like behavior - keep a game on the card, if possible several games, and just change the game without the need to hook the device to the computer. THAT...

Re: Game ROM on SD card
But I don't understand why you mention ASM and Lua, instead of just doing it in C/C++? The standard for this chip is C/C++, via Arduino or via their development platform. I have a feeling you didn't read what I was saying. TL.DR. I want to get it so users can write their game logic and drop it on a...

Re: Game ROM on SD card
So let me understand. By serialization you mean putting all the assets in the game in a single large file on the SD card? If so (or even if not), why not just putting the files separately, such as every asset in its own file? I meant the whole game logic whole or DLL-like with functions and asset d...

Re: Game ROM on SD card
Why do you want to serialize data, when you can just use the file system on the SD card? My goal is to make something like Odroid-Go and have games on SD card, so the user can travel without the hustle of reflashing the microcontroller. By serialize, I meant a way to turn the game's logic into some...

Game ROM on SD card
I want to make something like a handheld game console with ESP32 and keep the game's logic and art on an SD card, like ROMs on a cartridge. Is there some way to serialize the logic)? I'm intermediate at C and C++ and I know how to serialize data, but not the whole logic. The end goal would be a proj...
