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!
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"🌞
Super Sunny World is a new pixel platformer, and a love letter to the original Super Mario Bros.🍄
