"Sir, is the Super Scaler effect really necessary for a cutscene like this?"

"I coded it, didn't I?"

Resistance is futile.

Back in the old days, you could just flash between these two frames to make dynamic lighting, to show something's flashing in front of her.

I'm just gonna use the other frame to indicate the lights are on. No flashing required.

Still working on it.

There's definitely treasure around here, but it'll still take a while 'til we reach it.

Well, finding glitches was bound to happen.

In this case, with a scrolling boss, the player's trapped on the left side of the screen until there's no solid block there.

I'd better fix that, THEN shrink the gap behind the boss.

I guess I can show these things on April Fools day.

They are NOT going into the Robot Maid game, but they're still in the code.

What's taking me so long? Designing assets for the volcano level. Also, allergies.

Boom boom acka-lacka-lacka boom, boom boom acka-lacka boom boom.

...another fine mess you got yourself into.

I'd better stop sharing these cutscene moments. I'm almost there.

I'm pretty sure I got the save feature working, though I don't know if three save files is acceptable.

Then again, the save features are for Casual Play only. Arcade and Caravan Modes don't let you save your game, for hopefully obvious reasons.

Whoooooa, we're halfway there!

...in terms of cutscenes.
