SMS Experiment, Day 15. Not a lot today, but got driving around in 16 directions. The sprite is glitchy at a certain angles, which is weird. #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #graphicsgale

SMS Experiment, Day 14. Got the car sprite into the prototype and rotating. Stole lots of code from the old Ninja Girl project to import and display sprites. I'd like thank Past PW for his work. #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #graphicsgale

SMS Experiment, Day 13 con't. First rotation test. It's... not super great. Half the frames I eyeballed and the other half are based on the render. Inconsistency is awesome! #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #graphicsgale

Downland for NES Day 18, con't: Improved the sounds. I'm pretty much done, I think. I wanted to convert the game from regular unrom to unrom-512 but can't find a good example. I'll leave that for the future. #downland #tandy #coco #nintendo #nes

Downland for NES Day 14: Restored screen transitions. Code clean up. Moving out lots of data out from the fixed bank but still always hitting the 16k limit as soon as I implement new stuff. So frustrating. Only sound is left now. #downland #tandy #coco #nintendo #nes

Downland for NES Day 13: Fixed the background drawing. Restored part of the titlescreen by moving stuff around in banks. Restored jumping. #downland #tandy #coco #nintendo #nes

Downland for NES Day 8: Exporting banked resources. Brought in and now running the game main code. Drawing sprites. Might have a slight issue with backgrounds. Can't currently jump because enabling the flag somehow causes a linker error. #downland #tandy #coco #nintendo #nes

Downland for NES Day 4: Now exporting all the sprite tiles. Fixed an export bug. The high bytes weren't exported correctly. Figured out how to draw 8x16 tiles. It's a start. #downland #tandy #coco #nintendo #nes

Downland for ColecoVision Day 1: Tried out sverx's updated devkitSMS with CV support. Updated the makefile, added a few missing defines and it worked on the first try! No sound, though. And it freezes in GearColeco, probably sound related too. #downland #tandy #coco #coleco #colecovision

Downland for Game Gear Day 2: changed the timer and lives markers to be sprites. The lives display has been simplified to reduce flicker. Gotta fix bugs with scrolling when changing screens. Also, this game can be brutal. #downland #tandy #coco #sega #gamegear #devkitsms

Downland for Game Gear Day 1 con't: Added basic scrolling. Tiny screen is still tiny. Lives, time, and score can't clearly be seen. I will remove the top and bottom except the time, and display that with sprites in a corner. #downland #tandy #coco #sega #gamegear #devkitsms

Ugh, fine. Might as well...
Downland for Game Gear Day 1: Made a common game code folder for 8bit machines. Migrated SG-1000 and SMS to it. Created GG project. Updated makefile and game colors. The screen is tiny! #downland #tandy #coco #sega #gamegear #devkitsms

Downland for SG-1000 Day 8&9: Finally got sprite drawing working. Reworked the obj gfx, toned down the player to be more like the original. Making 1bpp graphics is hard. I think I'm almost done with this version. #downland #tandy #coco #sega #sg1000 #devkitsms

Downland for SG-1000 Day 5: Still working on the new player sprite. I realized that the black areas from yesterday's version are transparent. Reworked to have less transparency and I think it has a bit more personality now. #downland #tandy #coco #sega #sg1000 #devkitsms
