Sad I missed this kickstarter! I'd love to be able to buy the cartridge but it doesn't seem to be available anywhere now.

Just saw Arcus speed running this and was not surprised at all to realize it was by the same people who made Micro Mages.

Most of what you said is understandable theoretically. But how the heck do you implement it!!!

It would be awesome if you guys made continuations for the following nintendo consoles.

I hope there is a second installment for this new console I’ve heard about; The Super Nintendo.

I hope the music playing for this is the menu music on the cart!

Found this game in 2021 and been playing it over and over again ever since, amazing game the love and passion that went into it can be felt

I loved the game, I wish it had both, I beat it a bunch of times

Brilliant! The best NES game (after Gimmick!)

40kb damn. also multiplayer

When is the gameboy/color port coming

the amount of optimization is insane

On the first boss right now. The green ghost thing. So far its a stellar game.

Coding on notepad++ is chad

So can this apply to modern games? Where instead of using full textures they can just split it into smaller pieces and combine it to form the map?

Wow this looks fun!

*SHADOW WIZARD MONEY GANG* 🧙‍♂️💰💲 *WE LOVE CASTING SPELLS* 🪄🥶🥵

Please can anyone recommend me resources on these kind of sprite optimization?

Just played this at the Midwest gaming Classic '24 and I was blown away. I had no idea it was only a 40K game and the tricks used to build it were so clever. This makes the game even more impressive. It's an attractive game that is ridiculously fun in a group. Some of the design choices from a gameplay standpoint were brilliant. The multiplayer mechanic with players turning into ghosts that can temporarily stun monsters was a fantastic idea. Not only does it keep players engaged in the game, but it allows less skilled players to keep participating and having fun. I also like how the bosses are scaled to how many players are still alive. I don't own any NES homebrew yet, but this one is definitely one I'm looking to pick up to play with my kids.

If this was released back then when the NES is hot and new, this game could revolutionize the whole game industry because how creative on both gameplay and Visual style, this just to show people's imagination back then are not there yet and still figuring out what makes a game good.

Im literally just getting into the nes scene and discovering these homebrew games exist is incredible. I can't wait to get my copy of this.

Love your work, dude.

SO COOL 😺😺😺

This looks like another 40 kb no memory mappers

There's a teal shade in here that I didn't realize the NES had. Congrats on a great concept and execution!

You, sir, have my support. Just purchased the game!

Now you need to make a GBC game! :D

you shouldve fit this video into 40kb too!

Nes can have only 2 controllers used at the time

I just bought an Evercade VS, and so NOW I'm SUPER excited to get this cart. :)

cool

40KB is actually a lot in a different scale. For my electronic projects I got only 2K and when need to do LCD stuff that's barely enough for anything :(

I downloaded the ROM, and I've just tried it out. It's really good, but I give a minor criticism towards the difficulty. Final Score: 9.75/10.

As a critic, I feel this demo still holds up. Final Score: 9.75/10

if you make 10k game then it fit if you make 40k then you need 40k. if you mean you have 60k game and try fit 40 you need remove something so its 40k. todo it you make it 40k it means optimize you can write RAR routine lol

I would love to see these games on the x16

We must hespect the programmers who wrote these games in the hardest programming language. Imagine what they went through with the primitive technology they had. I love my NES

40kb.. that’s freaky

Thanks for the reminder.Missed the KS.But I don't like the black box and Hello Kitty art design.Will you (not Broke Studio-they charge too much for shipping) also sell a regualr edition later with a different art design?

could you maybe remake this for original gameboy

This game was on track to not just being the best NES homebrew, but one of the best games in the entire NES library. So much potential here, I really hope this concept is revisited at some point.

You can say yes to spices!

I just got this game. It really is a great one and is more fun with multiple players.

First thing I'm doing when I get a time machine is giving this to the first kid I see on the playground in 1983

It would be very cool if you progressed by doing snes next, then n64.

optimization is such a lost art, it needs to come back

That is incredible WOW

if this released back when the nes came out i bet it would have sold so many copies

You are incredible, it is very difficult to program in ASM. I have only managed to make Mario able to throw fireballs upwards in SMW... Although thinking about it, he should have more freedom doing it from scratch than modeling. Obviously I subscribe! ​You give me hope that I can make a game for the Snes that can sell.
