Super Sunny World is 3 weeks old! Check out what features went in this week.

Super Sunny World is a brand new NES platformer in development.


Progress this week has been awesome and a lot of fun to implement. There's also been a lot of CPU performance work behind the scenes, to make sure it runs great. In addition to that, we are cranking away on music and art which should hopefully show up in game very soon!

The original goal for Super Sunny World was to deliver the game in just 4 weeks! However, with only 1 week left, it's clear we're not going to hit the "make NES game in 4 weeks" goal.

TBH though, the game is too fun to rush it out now and progress has actually been great, despite taking longer than original planned!

We will slip past that 4 week limit, but I think the game is going to be awesome!

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!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as β€œa little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."
