I guess that's why "how it started / how it is going" became popular.

In Koopa calendars, there are always 29 days in February, sometimes even 30, but March hops from 9th to 11th ... noone ever says why.

Enjoy your #Mar10. Not much new about mustachied jumpy character on sylvainhb.blogspot.com/search/label... since last year, I'm afraid, and mostly about other's videos ... but there are still a few sketches of mine if you feel like scrolling down to 2022

that's completely unfair. I can't even pretend the EU is compensating that with welcoming you at Eurovision, because I don't think they let you vote there either.

Ah. Side effect, I tend to end up with multiple copies of the tile in pages and they eventually end up all used in the levels ... then I have to schedule a clean-up phase because I'm reaching 90+% of available tileset space :P

Could it be ??? ...

you mean so far all SNES sound drivers were written directly in binary code !?

(my C64 coding is very rusty, but I see 0xc000-0xffff isn't in the map ... any chance you could swap out KERNAL or BASIC ROMs and use RAM instead ?)

CJ's Quest : Mind Conquest, by Cyborg Jeff from the album Cyborgelis =20th Anniversary=

@cyborgjeff.bsky.social , any plan to make a SID cover of "Dungeon Business" cyborgjeff.bandcamp.com/track/dungeo... ?

Oh! and they'd have a SID cover of "Mind Conquest" for boss fights ^_^

Well, now that I can actually play music, I guess I need to talk to a C64 SID composer-for-hire with Goattracker experience.

does it make a distinct sound when poked with your sword ?

ooch. And I guess you don't have any bank-swapping options left :-/

hearing SMB level clear fanfare when I sent an SMS definitely made me reply to my mother more often ;)

Ah. And now with color cycler patched. That makes a decent #ndsdev #screenshotsaturday, I believe...

Maybe one day we'll have #ndsdev studio, but we haven't yet ... So I'm using #imagemagick snapshot and zoom instead :P

ever checked videos about Sid Factory 2 ?
it seems like C64 titles could skip some features depending on what part of the game is running, to save either bytes or cycles...

I guess it could be like .vgm files: a timed stream of registers/values to set .. but given how most SID tunes so quickly switch between values, I don't know whether that'd end up more compact...

A funny alternative to joystick shaking of EA summer games challenge :P

I will need at least the following SID tunes:

β€’ Title theme
β€’ Overworld theme
β€’ Cave theme
β€’ Dungeon theme
β€’ Game over theme

I wonder what that’s going to cost me?

the nearby Linux Users Group might help you combining one of these goals with "have a social life", I guess...
