This is maybe a little on the technical side, but I've had a few people reach out with questions on how the Moving Platform logic works in Super Sunny World, so I created the brief explanation.

Let me know if you have any follow up questions!

I love how in Super Mario Bros. 3, they added the ability for shells to SMASH bricks. It leads to some great "chain reaction" moments.

Super Sunny World (my upcoming NES game) now features this gameplay mechanic as well!

I needed to implement a way for certain areas of the level to "lock" the camera, prior to reaching the end of the level data. Thankfully DisplacedGamers' amazing explanation of how SMB1 attempts to do it stuck in my mind, and I recreated that system.

"Ghost Piece" is now available in From Below Pocket via a "patch/hack" for anyone interested! It comes with the game when purchased on itch.io! Warning: It's very untested, and probably has perf issues. 😅 https://mhughson.itch.io/from-below-pocket/devlog/617249/ghost-p…

When making games on the NES, nothing is easy!

With a LOT of help from the #nesdev Discord, I was able to clean up the seam above the status bar.

Also there's some new (temp) art, and I even perform the forbidden mid-frame palette update for extra colors!
