Making an NES game, part 2

This is the 2nd demo from the NES game I am developing. The working title is "Explorer". This one shows off player movement and background collision detection.

I plan to make several videos like this as I code the game, documenting the making of an NES game from start to finish. For more gritty details, check my NES development blog: http://www.tummaigames.com/blog

Very cool. I'm experimenting with 6502 asm on the NES as well... I've managed to find a lot of information, but I was wondering if you knew of any particularly helpful tutorials or documentation on animating sprites? I guess what I'm most interested in is finding some way to keep time, then I suppose I could swap the individual sprite tiles in the multi-sprite. Otherwise I seem to be finding things pretty well.

@HoneydewHuey I'm not aware of any NES tutorials that teach sprite animation specifically, but I think you'd use a frame counter for timing.

Still working on this? Seems really cool.

[tummaigames]

I've put this one aside for a newer, less ambitious project (see my newer videos). The idea is to finish a smaller game to gain more NES development experience. I'll come back to this project.
