The @kickstarter.com campaign for Beyond the Pins: The 2nd Frame is now LIVE! A new point-and-click adventure for the NES, PC, Mac, and MS-DOS, with bowling!? 🎳 Traverse Cinema Hills and mingle with the town. Is something strange afoot? Nah, it's probably nothing. #nesdev #indie

I just backed Beyond the Pins: The 2nd Frame on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/kha...

Wrapping up the year with December’s Homebrew NES Calendar pick: 8-Bit Xmas 2021 by #RetroUSB, the perfect NES game for the holiday season! 🎄 #NES #homebrew #nesdev #indieNES #indiegames #gamedev #ファミコン #同人ゲーム @scrobins.bsky.social @deadeye.bsky.social

I made a Doom source port that runs within a PDF file. PDFs support Javascript, so Emscripten is used to compile Doom to asm.js, which is then run within the PDF engine. Input/output is done by manipulating text input fields. doompdf.pages.dev/doom.pdf github.com/ading2210/do...

Surprise, I'm working on an official guide for the original Mega Man! Hand-Drawn Game Guides: Mega Man is coming to Kickstarter next week thanks to @nfpublishing.bsky.social! I'm excited to share more with you all in the coming days!

Well, everything comes in the end... We are pleased to announce that, after more than 5 years of intense work, #malasombra is entering its final phase of development. So here we are now, fixing bugs and making performance improvements. Very happy to share this milestone with you! #nes #nesdev

Did some work on the opening moments of Even Goblins Fall In Love where Lin departs on their quest after getting gifts from their adoptive mother, Misia. #indienes #gamedev #homebrew #retrogame #nes #nesdev #indieretro #screenshotsaturday

For the past 5 years I've been using this tool I made called Binxelview to reverse engineer game graphics and map data from all sorts of different games. If you're curious about it, here's a visual tour of the program. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GAP...

To close out the year, this month is dedicated to the 8bit Xmas 2018 game from RetroUSB! 🎄 Happy holidays to everyone! Can’t wait to see what 2025 has in store for us. #NES #homebrew #nesdev #indiegames #gamedev #ファミコン #同人ゲーム @scrobins.bsky.social @deadeye.bsky.social

In '22, @frankengraphics.bsky.social and I ran a 12-week NESDev Weekly Graphics challenge series, over which a participant would create the vast majority of the graphics needed for an authentic NES/Famicom platformer. Those challenge prompts have been collected here: www.mteegfx.com/learn/challe...

I’m a little late, but it’s November! And this month, the spotlight is on OverObj, the superb and challenging shmup developed by Little Sound for FAMICOM & NES! 😍 #FAMICOM #NES #homebrew #nesdev #indiegames #gamedev #ファミコン #同人ゲーム #自作ゲーム @deadeye.bsky.social @scrobins.bsky.social

I'm so excited to play this!!

Did we dig up a totally unseen Atari 2600 game from 1984, programmed by one of the few women creating console games in the early 1980s? And did we interview her? Yes we did. Atari 50's "The First Console War" DLC, out November 8.

Thanks to the folks at @retrotainmentgames.bsky.social I will stream a demo of Haunted: Halloween '87 (Year of the Witch) at 10pm Eastern, in honor of Halloween and the HH87 Kickstarter closing *tomorrow*. Then I'll play HH86, which, I uh, still haven't finished. www.youtube.com/live/Zw0BlOZ...

Awesome indie game dev thread! 👇

Here's my first starter pack! Immerse yourself in the world of current NES and GB development. A small curated list to get your toes wet. Bsky provides a handy "follow all" button. go.bsky.app/PD1jWn4

Some of you i know from tw/x, but lots of you are new faces, so i’m just going to start dripping my best-ofs. This is 100% NES displayable without cartridge expansions on its own. Cat & gold chain as sprites. Using emphasis bits to narrow colours towards cold. Intended for one of my game projects

Welcome to all new Twitter refugees! I'm Nathan, a retro homebrew developer (NES, 2600, GBA, etc). Many of my games are free downloads, so come check them out. www.bitethechili.com

Hi Bluesky, meet my game. Courier is a cyberpunk adventure game originally designed for the NES. Upgrade your gear by taking on jobs from seedy employers and hack your way through the world to get all the info you need to take on the evil Ankh Industries and save the city. #nesdev #gamedev #Indie

The long awaited third installment in an excellent series for the NES. Loved the first two, platformer / side scrolling beat'em ups, and this is sure to be just as great. Help Retrotainment out by backing Haunted Halloween '87

I've been doing all kinds of Orange Island asset management and engine design for weeks. Here I'm showing my best effort to match the motion of the chimney smoke on the NES. The entity system is coming alive. Lots of glitches because major things are still in flux. #homebrew #retrodev

Just a reminder that I went and reprogrammed the NES version of Courier from scratch to run on modern platforms. In the process I got to add a lot of cool modern features like lighting effects, achievements, optional modern soundtrack, etc. Would mean a lot if you could wishlist it. Launching soon!

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jqta... NEXXT studio 3 is finally released! That took a while. Here's (almost) everything new with it. (for newcomers, NEXXT studio is the most full-featured NES graphics studio around. Draw, layout, animate, manage, export to project).

Finally received my copies of The Storied Sword! Making NES games still feels like wish fulfillment after my 2nd release 😂🤓😎

Happy June Day! ☀️ This month, we're showcasing Super Sunny World, an upcoming NES platformer by Matt Hughson Gorgeous platformer game! 😍👍☕️ #NES #homebrew #nesdev #indiegames #gamedev #ファミコン #ファミコン同人 @deadeye.bsky.social

Lunch break 🥪 And you know what that means – NESdev time! I've been continuing to work on Cyber Rogue, the upcoming NES game by Raster Wizards (TenShu) 😍☕️ #NES #homebrew #nesdev #NESmaker #indiegames #gamedev #ファミコン #ファミコン同人

Interstitial screen from the Storied Sword, an establishing shot for the villain’s citadel fortress. Hoping to release this game sometime this year on the NES, but don’t want to rush the polishing phase we’re currently in. I’m extremely excited about the way this game is turning out! #neshomebrew

This January 2024, I am proud to present Chibi Monster Brawl, my NES game where up to 4 players battle for the highest score 🏆 With the help of my friends @raftronaut.bsky.social for the music and FJ for the graphics 😘 #NES #homebrew #nesdev #NESmaker @deadeye.bsky.social
