Welcome back to Projects of the Month! This March came packed with a ton of new projects for all sorts of different platforms, primarily the FX-CG50 and TI-84+CE.

• CE C Toolchain and Libraries for the TI84+CE/TI83PCE (convimg): MateoConLechuga has released version 10.1 of the convimg utility, which adds multithreading support for increased speed.
• [PRIZM] Cookie Clicker: Spenceboy98 has created a new expansion for his Cookie Clicker game for the Casio PRIZM, adding a whopping 478 new upgrades, some UI updates, and an autosave feature!
  
• Dungeons & Diagrams CE: euphory has created a mini dungeon crawler/Minesweeper game for the TI-84 Plus CE based on Zach Barth’s “Advanced Dungeons & Diagrams”. Here, you try to figure out the layout of the dungeon using various clues on the map. It’s well polished and has more maps on the way!
  
• First Fantasy: Mana Force (xLIB CSE, CE Textlib and Celtic CE RPG): DJ Omnimaga has ported many of the improvements in the CE version of First Fantasy: Mana Force back to the TI-84+ CSE. Worth downloading if you’re on a CSE and looking for an RPG.
  
• JezzBall clone for the HP Prime [Python]: komame has been working on a Jezzball clone for the HP Prime in Python. Collision is working, and there’s a title screen. Stay tuned for a future release.
  
• KhiCAS, a full-featured CAS for Casio CG50/Graph 90+e: parisse added support for step by step integration and derivation in the full version of KhiCAS this month.
• Memory game: Potchkee has created a basic memory game for the Casio fx-CG50. Memorize and play back the flashing patterns to go for a high score!
  
• MIDI Player CE: prime17569 has released a MIDI player for the TI-84+ CE that uses USB-MIDI to play audio right from the CE! You’ll need an external USB-MIDI host device with a speaker like a PC or mobile phone to hear it, but the tech can finally allow for CE games to have sound!
  
• Minesweeper for casio fx-cg: Potchkee has released several updates for their Casio Basic minesweeper game for the FX-CG50, improving the load times and adding more features.
  
• MTEd Text Editor: StephenM has created a simple text editor in Lua.
  
• Reversi (Othello) with FX & Animations – HP Prime G1/G2: komame has released their final version of Reversi Prime for the HP Prime. It’s quite expansive, with AI, a 2 player mode and solid graphics. It can even be run via HP Prime emulators, so give it a shot!
  
• RPG Starter Kit CE: tifreak8x has been working on updating his old TI-BASIC RPG starter kit for the CSE and CE.
  
• SD Picture Viewer [BASIC] [TI-84 Plus CE]: TheLastMillennial has made an impressive image viewer solely in TI-Basic! It uses dithering to display an impressive range of colors in CSE/CE TI-BASIC’s limited palette of 24 colors. As is to be expected, it’s a bit on the slow side, but is quite impressive nonetheless and worth checking out!
  
• SimU8 - A portable nX-U8/100 emulator written in C: LifeEmu has spent several years working on a highly portable nX-U8/100 emulator in C, which is the processor used in several recent Casio scientific calculators. It only emulates the CPU, but is light on dependencies and can be easily added onto or dropped into other projects.
  
• Sudoku: Potchkee has built a simple Sudoku game in ExtraPython for the Casio FX-CG50. It has multiple difficulty settings, and more updates are planned in the future.
• Sudoku CE: Cars and Ice Cream has also been working on a Sudoku game, this time in Celtic CE. On top of playing Sudoku, you can also create and edit Sudokus inside the program itself
  

As always, be sure to vote for your favorite project, and see you next month!
