I've added a transpose setting to my SNES audio driver. Subroutines and loops can now be played with different semitone offsets. Bytecode assembly only, the MML compiler changes have not been coded yet. #snesdev #spc700

We have another prototype for you today, with the recovery of a late Kick Off #SNES prototype. Doesn't seem to be any major or noticeable differences, and could just contain bugs that haven't been fixed. Let us know if you spot anything! www.gamesthatwerent.com/2025/09/kick...

影山雅司 永眠のお知らせ We are deeply saddened to share that Gimmick! composer Masashi Kageyama has passed away.

The SNESdev Jam submissions are in, this year there are a lot of entries and quite interesting ones at that! Currently is the voting period, so be sure to leave a rating when you try ‘em! #snesdev itch.io/jam/snesdev-...

SNESDev 2025's entry period is over: itch.io/jam/snesdev-...

My entry in the 2025 SNESDEV game jam is complete. undisbeliever.itch.io/space-rescue... #snesdev #snes

It's been a while since I did any updates to the SNES version of Jurl, so i've done a few fixes including making it possible to finish. I've also added a time bonus that a few people have suggested, if it works here I might push it out tonsomo.itch.io/jurl-super-n... #IndieDev #RetroDev

Here's an upcoming #SNES beat'em up that might be worth keeping on you radar: "Triple Impact" By DigiFox It's still somewhat early in development but so far it's already looking really atmospheric with some solid sprite work. #retro #homebrew #indiedev #retrodev #SNESDev #gaming #retrogaming

So I only just now discovered that Tiny Dangerous Dungeons Remake has not been available on the app store for 2 weeks now because of some expired agreement, I've renewed it now and the game should hopefully show up in the store again soon. apps.apple.com/us/app/tiny-...

We have another set of prototypes for you, with the recovery of three for the #SNES in the form of Kevin Keegan's Player Manager. It's getting to a stage where we might have to open up a dedicated unreleased/prototype site just for football/soccer games! www.gamesthatwerent.com/2025/09/kevi...

Just did an NES VRC6 cover of The Flooded Dungeon from Dangerous Dungeons! (original by @kungfufurby.bsky.social). It's pretty cool to hear the song this way, and the VRC6 chip compliments the sound really well. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wv41... #nes #vrc6 #chiptune

Today I drew the player sprite in safety orange. The deadline for the game jam is going to be tight (5 days to go). #snesdev

Would anyone be interested in hearing previously unrelased level music from the Project Dream SNES prototype by David Wise? youtu.be/5B10j5ttZbk

"Arrr! I had a dream once... I were in this fine game... A bear stole me glory... looked a bit like you, 'e did!" Thirty years ago, before a bear and bird battled a rhyming witch, there was a boy named Edson who dreamed of adventure...

Added two enemies that shoot projectiles to my game. The only enemy left to code is the boss. #snesdev

Yesterday I finished a playtest build of my SNES game I'm one step closer to releasing a game. Lots of stuff I've got to do in 2 weeks: Enemy projectiles, enemy graphics, boss, title screen, game over screen, pause screen, credits, and more levels. #snesdev

SNESdev daily log 1: Finished drawing the tileset. I ran out of time (if I'm to meet my self-imposed deadlines) but this is a good place to stop. I wasn't able to come up with a left/right wall design, it's just a 2px black border. (Pink is transparent and dark-magenta are unused tiles).

SNESdev daily log 1: Coded a security bot enemy. Coded an enemy that jumps towards the player.

#snesdev daily log 2 - 9: - Added player projectiles, a melee attack and multiple gravity constants. - Added room transitions, d-pad activated (up press) script triggers and doors. - Played SMB2 (SNES) for inspiration. - Reviewed and rewrote the game's todo list. - Added semitransparent water.

Our next entry into the archives is something very interesting, which is start of a set of converted #Atari2600 games for a physical Activision 10-1 game pack that was released. Oddly - the builds are #SNES based and an interesting curiosity to check out: www.gamesthatwerent.com/2025/07/acti...

Today we're releasing two early prototypes of Kick Off 3 for the #SNES with major differences with titles, menus and score panels. There are likely sprite differences too and a lot of glitches not yet fixed compared to the final release. Enjoy! www.gamesthatwerent.com/2025/07/kick...

SNESdev daily log 1: Found the motivation to overcome my procrastination. Added a player melee attack to the game.

Something very special today from GTW - several #SNES prototype builds of Porky Pig’s Haunted Holiday (from 1993–1994), including 6 unseen subgames (PORKATHLON!), early sprites, and loads of content cut from the final release. Plenty to discover! www.gamesthatwerent.com/2025/07/pork...

Some fun little trivia of Timmy, the protagonist of my Dangerous Dungeons games. #DangerousDungeons #OC

I'm going to be live tonight with the @zophar.bsky.social while he plays (or tries to) DOOM SNES 2025 Catch his live stream at 9pm EDT on Twitch or YT twitch.tv/zophar1 youtube.com/@zopharlive

You can get the ROM at supermidipak.itch.io/super-midi-p...

hey, I can tell y'all that I worked on music for this game! I'm in the credits! on a physical SNES cartridge! I helped @randallinden.bsky.social bring to life several more classic DOOM tunes on the SNES's sound chip, expanding its soundtrack while working with the game's original sound driver!

SNESdev daily log 5 & 6 & 7: Added anti-gravity to the base enemy. Coded an enemy that avoids ledges.

SNESdev daily log 4: Coded a very basic enemy that turns around when it touches a wall.

SNESdev daily log 3: Added ladders to the game #snesdev

SNESdev daily log 2: Sketched a few level designs in a sketchbook. Converted hard-coded constants into a structure of arrays table so walk and run have different movement values.

SNESdev daily log 1: - Panicked about my lack of progress in my snesdev game jam game - Brainstormed and sketched the enemies I want in my game (instead of keeping them locked up in my head)

Dusting off the #SNES baseball engine. cleaned up the mess of code it once was and now I can add more stuff hoping to get a little demo put together for the snesdev jam going on

I've published version 0.1.1 of my homebrew SNES audio driver github.com/undisbelieve... This release adds: * An optional delay to vibrato * A way to key-on a note without key-off * A broken chord can now be slurred #snesdev #spc700

I have the very start of a converter written that takes a Furnace SNES file and converts it to a file that Terrific Audio Driver can take. I'm finding that there's definitely some additional complications that I didn't have with ft2pently, and I'm not sure exactly how good it's possible to get.

Did you know?🤔 #NightmareBusters Ultimate Edition is an optimized version of the original game for Super Nintendo, built to stay close to Crisse’s incredible work. Thanks to @upsilandre.bsky.social, 18 bugs were fixed — including crashes and soft locks!✅ www.kickstarter.com/projects/pix...

Two Classic SNES & NES Jaleco Football Games Are Coming To PC. (Repost)

The wife of Canadian artist Mark Heine shared on Facebook that Mark passed away on Sunday, June 8, following two years with cancer (1961–2025). Mark's career included a handful of video game projects, including R-Type III SNES and box art for the Space Quest series www.facebook.com/share/p/1Acy...

Here's the small #SNES game I want to finish within a few months, because I want to have a released game with my own creative vision alongside my bigger projects. It's a top-down shooter involving cute little critters piloting remote control hovercraft toys with cannons. #gamedev #snesdev #homebrew

Today's SPC700 reverse engineering journey takes me into code that I found wasn't used at all. It was found in the Japanese version of ActRaiser, and is also present in Super Adventure Island and Magic Sword. What is it, you ask?

First up - released today on GTW is a very early 1992 #Nintendo #SNES prototype platformer called Chaos Drop. Developed by Enigma Variations, the game was dropped and eventually morphed into Magician's Apprentice for PC/Konix. Check out early builds here: www.gamesthatwerent.com/2025/05/chao...
