It was brought to my attention just recently that there was a quiet Zelda II fan-remake released a few years ago and most people never heard of it!
Painstakingly recreated in Gamemaker, I love the widescreen support!

Yeah, this one is notable for having a small assembly routine that updates the PPU scroll register so that the background scrolls as you fly through space. Nifty hi-score name entry, too.
I do wonder where they found out about these hardware registers back then 🤔

Nice one @ximwix.net ! There aren’t many “series” in type-ins, and it’s always fun to see how the author progresses as a programmer and how they fit them together. For Star Dust, you take off from a planet in 1, and have space battles in 2 and 5. 3 and 4 still need to be typed up.

People think documentation is hard. "Documenting a lot" has legit been career advancing for me
One trick:
If you're writing down an answer to someone in an email or an IM, paste that this into a page
Just do it. Copy-paste. A little cleanup if you're feeling ambitious. Bam, documentation.

Rolan's Curse 2's Zelda-like formula did a solid job on upgrading from the first with a party of characters, an automap, and a more detailed world while keeping up with the action. A solid dungeon crawler that did its best to improve on the past while providing hours of comfy fun on the go!
