  3. Finished fixing bugs from the last QA run of Even Goblins Fall In Love, our indie NES JRPG.

    Now it's time for another round of parameter tuning followed by another QA run.

  5. This creature implements a lot of sequence break protection for Even Goblins Fall In Love, our indie NES JRPG.

    It varies it's behavior based on the player having certain key pieces of equipment.

  7. The Kickstarter starts today for Retro Game Forge, but the maker of NESMaker! If anyone is interested in making NES games easily, or even SNES as this will eventually support, consider backing! I've used NESMaker for a few years and it's a joy to work with, with a great supportive community!

  9. Each gear slot has 4 options. The player gets the first gear option in each slot by default, so we can ignore those when generating passwords only have to save 3 bits of data per gear slot.

    Retro #gamedev can be such a rush.

  11. The end of a game's dev cycle produces some of the most interesting bugs.
    I just fixed a bug where the last piece of equipment in each gear category for Even Goblins would disappear after loading from a password save.

  19. Recently finished a complete playthrough of the latest version of Even Goblins (all the way from beginning to end) and I have a slew of tweaks and bugfixes on my task list now.

  21. The Double Dose Potion is one of the stronger items in Even Goblins Fall In Love. It doubles the dose of applied status effects for the next attack Lin makes.

    In this case, Lin applies SHOCK to an enemy and the enemy remains affected by SHOCK despite recovering from one of the applied doses.

  23. I've reached the point where I am writing a draft version of the manual for Even Goblins Fall In Love.

    It makes sense when you think about it, but the manual for a game itself is an important part of the QA process.

  25. Just experimented with running Even Goblins Fall In Love in our in-development app shell for Steam.

    If this works out, I might be able to launch Even Goblins simultaneously as a ROM on itch and on Steam.

    Cross fingers for me and wish me luck!

  27. Times like these* call for the guillotine!

    * I was referring to trimming draft manuals for my NES games. What were you thinking of?

  29. Shout out to Compress Tools, a suite of compression algorithms particularly suitable for #nesdev.

    The Byte-Pair Encoding implementation was crucial for me to fit text and map data into the ROM for Even Goblins Fall In Love.

  31. Our indie NES JRPG, Even Goblins Fall In Love, is getting a little guest cameo from the protagonist of Nekomancer of Nowhere!

    It seems this magic cat has some sort of gift for Lin.

  33. Notice the little "0.9" in the corner of the screen. Our indie NES JRPG, Even Goblins Fall In Love, getting that much closer to version 1.0 completion!

  35. Got this tech demo to the point where it can render a screen of tiles, and it runs through logic where it looks at the floor and decoration on each tile and uses a lookup table to determine what tile numbers it should use for that combination, though there's no decorations in this screenshot.

    Check out my fancy autotiling, including being able to put inner corners on "+" shaped structures. Water also connects to bridges so you can have piers. Scrolling and map editing and actually saving to Turbo File can come after Art Fight, probably.

  37. #Bézier spline on the #NES proof of concept
    (wikipedia calls this thing a "composite bézier curve")

    half a kilobyte of lookup table, 150 bytes code, "only" ~1500 cpu cycles, image shows the path the sprite takes in the video

    i dont know why i felt the need to do this, and now that i have done it, i dont really know what to do next

  39. If you can't afford to stay at an inn, you can always go back to your mother's house to rest and save your game.

    This is not, not a commentary on life and our modern economy.

  41. One final bundle of doodles by bsky.app/profile/ursamajorgamm of main character Lin that will be sprinkled about the manual for Even Goblins Fall In Love.

  43. Crossing a bridge towards the final castle while carrying the requisite Macguffin sword will spark a boss battle that will open up a path to the end of the game.

  45. I noticed that there is only one place in the Even Goblins Fall In Love that uses stairs as a dungeon exit (a special metatile). By re-working the cave a bit, I can now use that metatile data for something else.

  47. I feel like my #screenshotsaturday posts are going to get a bit dull because I'm at the stage of development and game tuning where I basically live in Excel.
