A virtual machine for building and running retro games

## Introduction
The bakerVM is a virtual machine that executes bakerVM bytecode.
A builder-like compiler backend for the vm can be found in `definitions/image_builder.rs`. Since this project doesn't ship a sensible compiler yet, I recommend using it to create some form of assembler :grin:.
The executable images of the vm are encoded and decoded using the [bincode crate][bincode]
**NOTE THAT THIS SOFTWARE IS STILL UNDER HEAVY DEVELOPMENT AND IN NO WAY STABLE OR COMPLETE.**
**I HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO NOT USE IT IN PRODUCTION!**
