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!

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 the FINAL push for From Below!

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

I love how in Super Mario Bros. 3, they added the ability for shells to SMASH bricks. It leads to some great "chain reaction" moments.

Super Sunny World (my upcoming NES game) now features this gameplay mechanic as well!

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.
