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!

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.

It's been tough to find time to put together a Super Sunny World 🌞 update video this summer, so here's 3 months worth of features condensed into 2 minutes! Enjoy!
