[Temporarily logging back in to repost] I'm super happy with how the cover art turned out and Vesuki was absolutely wonderful to work with :) MGC was a blast too!

I had the honor of making cover art for @cross_cutter 's Crosspaint! You might have spotted the artwork if you were at Midwest Gaming Classic in Milwaukee where Crosspaint was on display. Crosspaint is a paint program/game for NES and its honestly very fun and interesting project you should keep an eye on! (it even supports SNES mouse with adapter, and zapper too!)

Today I made pixel fanart of @cross_cutter 's Crosspaint helper fairy Dawn on Wplace. CutterCross is working on a interactive art studio/ paint program for the actual NES! With SNES mouse support! I think thats pretty cool! 97 - Dawn (Crosspaint)

Heads-up, I will most likely not be active on this platform anymore. Please follow me where the skies are bluer. Thank you for all the support.

I've implemented autosaving for certain game data in CrossPaint, and I felt compelled to talk about UNROM512 / GTROM flash saving in general. [And some methods for detecting errors.] youtube.com/watch?v=Pd4_HFvF… #NESdev #NEShomebrew #8bit #ファミコン #indiedev #gamedev #retrodev

It's been a while. Long story short: - Old laptop became unreliable. - Built my first custom PC. - Finally ditched Windows for Linux. - Many days spent learning Linux. - More days spent transferring my dev workflow to Linux. Now I'm ready to get back into NESdev proper again :)

CrossPaint is planned to have 16 included sample images to load. I finally slapped together some routines for loading them :) These sample images will be compressed in ROM, while user-saved images will be uncompressed. #NESdev #NEShomebrew #8bit #ファミコン #indiedev #gamedev

I'm adding a menu for some misc. settings in CrossPaint. It occurred to me that the static canvas screen could benefit from having a screensaver to prevent burn-in on CRTs. So here's a lightweight starfield effect :) #NESdev #NEShomebrew #8bit #ファミコン #indiedev #gamedev

Working on the first boss in CrossPaint's Virus Buster minigame. The rotozoomer gained awareness and is fighting back! 😱 I've wanted to do this idea for a LONG time! #NESdev #NEShomebrew #NES #8bit #ファミコン #indiedev #gamedev #retrodev

The viruses have learned to fight back 😱 Still working on enemy behavior for CrossPaint's Virus Buster minigame, but I like how these damage effects turned out! #NESdev #NEShomebrew #8bit #ファミコン #indiedev #gamedev #retrodev

CrossPaint's Virus Buster minigame is starting to come together. Finally implemented hit detection for gamepad / SNES mouse AND Zapper support! Now it's time to start designing interesting enemy behavior and patterns.. 🫠 #NESdev #NEShomebrew #8bit #ファミコン #indiedev #gamedev
