Today I fixed some odd bugs in the way mirroring worked on real hardware, the way that the status bar flickered on real hardware, and then took on the task of getting the map export to properly export metatiles in the correct order so that we had a consistent way of loading palettes into the PPU. I discussed how we will handle loading the palettes directly from generated on the next stream as well as how we will likely handle multiple levels. Hope to see you Thursday! Thanks for those who watched!

In this rather short stream, I updated our palette to match the color palette of FCEUX, and added the ability to select and update the colors in the metatile and sprite palettes. Sorry for being thick-witted tonight, but hopefully I’ll be back to my normal self Monday. As a reward for your patience, if you watch to the end you’ll see what I have in store for the game’s core mechanic. Have a good weekend. See you Monday

This week some honor roll grunge kids are trying to sell us the 32X. We find good things to say about two 90’s movies that starred Angelina Jolie. Street Fighter 1 almost made it to the NES and someone beat Super Mario Bros with one hand behind their back. We’re accidentally sinking our own island and we’re keeping the spirit of Castlevania alive in this episode of the Retro League.
