Here's a cheeky gameplay GIF from our latest Kickstarter update...we're making good progress! 🙇‍♀️

Boss Fight Progress for Orange Island Cancrorum is a space ship crab or something with a few fancy moves. Aided by spitting turtles, this boss is sure to be a dizzying spectacle. Too many sprites required though. #nes #gamedev #nesdev www.youtube.com/shorts/oCDIA...

Let us all take a moment to enjoy a Super Soft Mappy. 😌 If you need any more cuteness, the star antagonist feline of Mappy is also known as Nyamco and he leads a band of Meowkies.

Magfest be craaaaaaazy!!

Who else is pumped for the Chrono Trigger HD-2D remaster?

Orange Island for the NES features a shmup section for the boss fights. Here's a 30fps gif showing off my engine's current progress. 32 baddies/bullets/particles and up to 16 player bullets. The bar on the left shows CPU usage. Enough left for an audio driver! #nesdev

Orange Island finally has stable split vertical scroll on the NES! #nesdev

For all Edinburgh queers... Filmhouse will be screening I Saw The TV Glow later this month! (28th Oct, 6pm) www.filmhouse.org.uk/movie/i-saw-...

Still slowly working on my small delivery witch game for the GBC. Squeezing in some friendly cameos along the way. Kacho On! #GBC #GBStudio #PixelArt #ドット絵 #GCCX

Part II: Non-scrolling border illusion for Orange Island. Playing back at 25% speed, we can see the final border design (mostly) staying static on the left side of the screen. We're blitting between the 2 nametables. Definitely many issues left to mitigate. Large boss metasprite added for fun!

Made a wallpaper out of our in-progress NES rom, always exciting to see @loblast.bsky.social's progress 💕

This non-scrolling border illusion trick for Orange Island is feeling half done. The NES can be quite unforgiving. In my head it seemed conceptually simply, but in execution it has been a maddening labyrinth of timing issues. Follow this thread for updates. #nesdev

I'm probably not as good at video games as I used to be, but I don't remember Mega Man X being as annoying as X3 is (playing it for the first time). And the music is shockingly repetitive?

Came across a spoopy bug where the main character sprouted a doppelganger that would cheer every time the player received damage 😱

With so many playable characters in Mario Kart World, when will Nintendo introduce a person of colour to the Mario universe? Give us a non-white princess!

I made a game in a month for a game jam! It was my first project in Godot, it forced me to learn the engine very quickly, and I had a lot of fun. And @mellorinemusic.com provided an excellent original soundtrack recorded through an actual SNES! I'll link them below, let me know if you try it!

Getting a midlife crisis perm has unlocked something within me.

Pathfinding now supports ladders! Prepare to be chased #pixelart #indiegame #gamedev #roguelike

Custom NES dust sleeves in the works. What if Nintendo let form follow function? Definitely needs adjustments.

I'm alive! I've been having a rough time – breakups, house moves, my laptop died (everything is in the cloud). Finally settling in, but we only got heating today and I'm still without wifi. Getting back to work on Orange Island ASAP! I was on a hot streak in the autumn, I'll try to get back there.

Enjoy the view ^^ #screenshotsaturday #pixelart #gamedev

The dashed line is 8 x 8, and the solid square line is 16 x 16 representing the palette boundary. In other words, this 16 x 16 frame is composed of three colors (plus one color without), and the BG is drawn with a total of 13 colors in four palettes (3 x 4 + 1 color without) for the entire screen.
