You can now pre-order the holographic edition of Triple Jump for the #NES. Only until we begin printing!. We hope it'll help anyone who ran into payment issues on our Kickstarter campaign. Ko-Fi also supports more payment methods. Thanks for your support!

Finally getting to do some optimizations :). Improved the engine to handle twice as many objects without slowdown. #NESdev. That's gonna come in handy for 4-player mode, which is especially taxing on the CPU.

You can find more info on Triple Jump's progress in our latest Kickstarter update:

We added another curse haunting the bottom screen edge in Triple Jump's bonus game. #NESdev. He just wants to play. 🦈

Sorry for the lack of updates, we'd been locked out of Twitter. Triple Jump has come a long way #NESdev. Bonus game now has 24 items, 8 curses and 50k lines of code (Micro Mages had 22k)🙈. Sorry for the delays, the game feels very solid now, but there is still some work left.

Faking chromatic aberration on the NES with a combination of screen shake and palette cycling on the sprites. #NESdev #TripleJump. Shaders won't be a thing for another 20 years or so.

And maybe didn't give enough info: The reason this works is the NES graphics chip has hardware support to flip sprites vertically and horizontally. I.e., it is FAST. You could rotate sprites programmatically by 90° using CHR RAM, but it would be very very slow.

Looks like we got confused with the flipping directions here:. frame 3: 1st sprite flipped vertically.frame 4: 2nd sprite flipped horizontally 😅.

Did you know that two sprites are enough to create rotating objects on the NES? #NESdev #MicroMages

First #NESdev stream in a while! Working on the #TripleJump bonus game :).
