I have a simple question, will you this time make a PAL optimised version? I mean its really a pain to have to play this game in slowmotion like the first game :S

Thank you

[SivakD]

@konio83 It's unfortunate, but it can't easily be done. It'd require rewrites of practically everything, and even then, the speeds wouldn't be perfect due to 5/6 being a number that just doesn't divide well into an integer.

Can I be expecting to see anything related to the game at MAGfest in January?

[SivakD]

@Bravosama Screwattack will probably let me be in and out of their booth like last year, but I haven't received notification yet that they've approved my panel.  I will make a Magfest-related news video when I know more.

Can you not combine the death count password and the password into one string?

[SivakD]

@bigun89 Well, I figured the method I did here would just be way easier to make. Some folks might not care to log their death count.

@SivakD It serves europe right for refusing to pay for the 60 hertz license. they had to go and be different and go with 50 hertz.

@SivakD I understand its already hard to code an intire NES game from scratch. Thank you for the quick response and please keep your awesome work you really are a great developer thank you for the awesome games you give us :)

I can guess that one of the passwords will be something along the lines of "BK2MUSIC"

[smbmadman1]

Is there going to be a beyond-easy difficulty in which the game would be more beatable? /:-)

You removed the jump counter? I can understand it being a bit distracting, but I've gotten a good amount of use out of it. Don't you think you could give the option to turn it off/on instead of removing it completely? That's what you did with the wall grip controls.
