Boing Ball for NES

[@soviut303]

I'd love to see a video that breaks down how you did it.

@@alainchristian There'd be more than 8 sprites per line, given how wide the ball is, so it might be a background. I'm thinking it might be a palette trick where each column has a separate palette index and gets swapped between red or white.

@@soviut303 The ball and its shadow do fit under 64 pixels. The sprite is maybe disappointingly normal, but yes there's some description in the link Miranda Lung gave.

[@soviut303]

@@Sakanakao Ah right, the limit is 8 sprites per line, not 8 tiles. I still think an explainer video would be great!

[@Blacksmith52]

there are really 3 dimensions within the realm of 8 bits and 256 colors. When pushed to the limits many thngs can do the unexpected.

Wow nice graphics!!!

[@mattisheretonight]

Love this!

[@RoddyDev]

that is such a clever way to simulate shadow

[@lucasmachain]

Quite smooth animation frames

[@RobertKreese]

Impressive! Oh, you have an Atari ST background too. I didn't know.

[@Dedicatedtolivinginthepast]

Why does it have the Nesert golfing background?

[@Sakanakao]

I needed something to fill the sides, though it actually shares some code with NESert Golfing too.

[@Dedicatedtolivinginthepast]

Cool

[@skydevxyz]

YES

[@JeanQPublique]

Any color pallette trickery happening here?

[@Sakanakao]

Not much. There's a separate red-white and white-red palettes to capture some sprite tile redundancies, but that's about it.

[@tomyyoung2624]

cool !

[@defaultgenCQ]

Does it never perfectly hit the corner? If not, can you fix this bug.

[@Sakanakao]

I think it will, eventually.

[@MakotoIchinose]

I guess the bouncing Ball was the DVD logo of Amiga :P

[@SaadAzim]

Neat! :D

[@ProximitySound]

Haha, Ball go Boing.
