Question for any #retro #gamers If you take a game off of your #SNES mini, will all its related data be lost too. I ask because i want to play a few RPGs on it, but i also use it to run a gaming event at my local library. I usually edit the games on the system to only include the ones that i want the patrons to play for that day. Would i lose data if i keep installing and uninstalling star ocean or something long?
I'm exploring adding more polish to the mode 7 levels in my SNES game. I made it so that the player zooms out a bit when the camera does, in order to make it make more sense visually. I also adjusted the camera so it doesn't zoom out quite as far, because when I had the player scale with it how it was she got really tiny and it looked super silly.
I've been exploring trying to figure out how to make it look visual sense that you can't jump over walls even though they're flat, which has been tricky. Ultimately it might just be fine anyway because people will have to take into account that it's a SNES game and I'm dealing with a lot of technical limitations.
I am definitely getting the impression that polygonal 3D is probably a lot easier to deal with than this sort of thing haha. Eventually I'll play with Godot and try to do this kind of gameplay with polygons...
Finally had the opportunity to do something in my main project (Nova the Squirrel 2) that wasn't just drawing yet more stuff: I added a line to the fishing rod ability. I had a realization of an easy way to implement it last night and put it in.
I just took the difference between the rod and the hook, divided it by 8, and added the divided distance several times to get each circle's position. Also the circles are just the hook drawing itself additional times, temporarily changing its position.

I made a little golf game for the #SNES. It's free.
This is not how PdP #SNES normally drops garbage... this appears to be a previously unreleased revision of the game. #NintendoSwitch
higan is good for prototyping a snes game you're developing when you don't have a flashcart yet, right?
Apparently the SNES Classic Edition was on Amazon Prime Now for ~$80 so my sister just bought it for me, shoved it into my hands, and said, "Here asshole, fucking play your Zelda game you keep not playing, no excuses now." and that's how the first day of this year went for me.
I honestly thought these things were sold out? I went NES->Genesis->N64 so SNES is the only Nintendo console I haven't played and it's my greatest shame.
Now how do I #stream this thing?
