Hi! I'm working on a new action platformer for the NES (code name: Project Lotus), inspired by games like Zelda 2, Mega Man, and Metroid!
Here's a short video showing where it's at today! This is all running on an NES using the MMC3 mapper chip!
Next up
An NES crossover!
The Kraken from my first NES game, "From Below", will make a cameo as one of the bosses in my next NES game, "Super Sunny World"π
Super Sunny World is a new pixel platformer, and a love letter to the original Super Mario Bros.π
WISHLIST!
It's the FINAL push for From Below!
Sale ends 11:59PM PT!

This "week" stretched a bit long, due to going away on vacation right in the middle for a couple weeks.
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!
