@DavidCaruso I could watch that background transition forever
This looks like a Konami game straight from the Genesis and I want it.
Apart from a snarky comment I like what I see
Well, I did say I was gonna be the mean one =P (everything else is perfectly fine honestly)
Thanks, guys! Here's some more level art:
Wait why caruso is making a hipster pixel platformer
Wait, hipster? It's not like I've put in poetry readings inbetween levels (or well, not yet...?)
lol =P
Honestly gonna be the mean one here and say that what irks me the most is that the color count and sound scream NES when everything else doesn't =/ (honestly I'd prefer taking it full blown 16-bit, but I can imagine the mess that would be redrawing everything now x_x)
Technically everything in that GIF is possible on an NES... with the caveat that I have infinite cartridge space to dedicate to CHR-ROM banks, lol. I like parallax abuse way too much to let restrictions get in the way! I guess we're going for a kind of "NES evolved" thing here (though we do have an
actual detailed style guide), full 16-bit style is out of our budget and time commitment range sadly.
