The clock is ticking on the Kickstarter campaign for the newest NES game: Packet! 🐭 youtu.be/-YPxQYqwWKs

🚨KICKSTARTER🚨 [ #Homebrew #NES #Famicom ] Packet by @turtlerescuenes.bsky.social is a new thrilling dot gobbling action puzzle adventure! Coming to your NES and FC soon! ➡️ www.kickstarter.com/projects/jd3... ➡️ #hbconnexion

This will be an in-depth, estimated 90 minute showcase that will show off the dramatic evolution of our NES development suite of tools. While most relevant to those who have used NESmaker, everyone is invited to see what we've been up to, and where we're going. Things are about to get wild...

Here is a solution to the first PACKET combo screen. The objective is to collect the highest number or raisins (dots) without breaking the sequence. There are twelve of these to solve in Combo Mode! 🐭 Kickstarter is in its final two weeks! www.kickstarter.com/projects/jd3...

New Packet Metal Signature Card add-on reward announced! Already backed the Packet NES game? Head back to snag this swag! 🐭 #indiedev #nesdev #homebrew www.kickstarter.com/projects/jd3...

PACKET COMBO MODE: No enemies! Just a series of screens where you must figure out the best path to collect the most raisins without a gap. Can you figure out the solution from this image? The answer will be posted in a couple days! 🐭 Currently on Kickstarter! www.kickstarter.com/projects/jd3...
