Person Intro
Deep Thought is a calculator programmer who primarily makes games for the TI-83 Plus series. In the past few months he mainly programmed in TI-BASIC and Axe, occasionally writing tutorials for topics in these languages that always seem to be half-finished. He has also used Z80 assembly and (Nspire) Lua, and plans to do so more in the future.
Since 2009, he has also been a web designer whose projects are almost always centered around calculator development. He has released several online apps and utilities under the ClrHome label designed to help other calculator programmers.
Person Significance
He first became known for a series of pure–TI-BASIC puzzle platformers released between 2009 and 2011. Two (Absolute Insanity and Absolute Madness) were later featured on ticalc.org, in addition to Simul, an Axe game of multitasking.
Deep Thought is an admin of Omnimaga and a member of the Revolution Software team, as well as the founder of ClrHome.
