A forest maze of mushrooms, breakable blocks, and a treasure chest holding a random item! All this and more in the world of Swampmaster, coming soon* for the NES!
*okay not THAT soon, but eventually!

Having a blast composing 8-bit music for our upcoming *Swampmaster* NES adventure game! This is likely to be used as boss (final boss!?) music.

Creating some ominous underworlds for Swampmaster
Think I finally got the HUD sorted out so that everything fits! Plus we now have location names 😎 Now, were it not for all the trees, we'd still know to a certainty that we are clearly in the WOODS.

As a big fan of oldschool game randomizers (Zelda 2!), I'm working on scripting as many randomizable elements as possible in Swampmaster to enhance replay value. No telling what item this treasure chest will give.
