Both down AND up screen transitions appear to be working in my new NES homebrew game. More testing required but an encouraging first attempt at the implementation. #nesdev

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!

Here's something you don't see in every NES game:

A platformer with ZAPPER support! Super Sunny World allows a 2nd player to kill enemies with the Zapper Gun.

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.πŸ„

WISHLIST!
