Screw it. Gonna spend time reverse engineering Kung Fu for NES. I can't find any existing disassembly anywhere. #nes #kungfu #screwit

SMSRally, Day 18. Smspower folks suggested a "double buffered" car tile update solution. Copy the car's 16 - 22 tiles over two game frames into a "back buffer" area while using an "active" tile area for the current sprite. Switch when the copy is done. #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #devkitsms

It took a while to birth, but here's a new entry in the Downland Unearthed series.

I seem to remember wanting to work on a project over the holidays. It seems so long ago. Now I would rather cocoon on the couch all day killing thousands of monsters in Vampire Survivors. Where has my hustle gone?

SMSRally, Day 17. Worked on improving the world to pixel to screen space transformations. The car follows the ground better now. Sprite still glitchy at certain angles. #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #devkitsms #gslib

SMS Experiment, Day 16. Worked on bugs. The car wasn't able to go to the edges of the map without glitching. #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #graphicsgale

SMS Experiment, Day 15. Not a lot today, but got driving around in 16 directions. The sprite is glitchy at a certain angles, which is weird. #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #graphicsgale
December 17, 2025 at 2:36 AM
SMS Experiment, Day 14. Got the car sprite into the prototype and rotating. Stole lots of code from the old Ninja Girl project to import and display sprites. I'd like thank Past PW for his work. #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #graphicsgale

SMS Experiment, Day 13 con't. First rotation test. It's... not super great. Half the frames I eyeballed and the other half are based on the render. Inconsistency is awesome! #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #graphicsgale
December 15, 2025 at 1:41 AM
SMS Experiment, Day 13. Basic 16 directions done for the car. Now it's to put it all together and see how all the frames mismatch while rotating around. #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #graphicsgale

No pixel car drawing tonight. Working on a Downland article. Pixel car tomorrow.

On vacation! So much free time! Will now sit on the couch and watch anime!
“But pw, don’t you have projects to work on?”
So much anime!

SMS Experiment, Day 12. Another two more directions. (Top right corner) The angle and the low resolution is really making this hard. Four more to go. #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #graphicsgale
December 10, 2025 at 3:22 AM
SMS Experiment, Day 11. Added two more directions. Slowly but Shirley. #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #graphicsgale
December 9, 2025 at 1:47 AM
SMS Experiment, Day 10. Worked on the up/down/left/right car sprites. Half done, now for the eight other (much more difficult) directions. #sega #mastersystem #homebrew #graphicsgale

I have acquired a Wii. This opens up the possibility of a Downland port. Sometime. When I get to it.

I talk about how Downland uses CRT artifacting to generate its graphics

With this economy I hope I don’t lose my job. If that happens I’ll be dropped into a market where I’ll have to compete against tens of thousands of people who are younger, smarter, and less attractive than me.

I’ll do better next year!

Ah yes, I remember all those hours I spent watching videos about the Switch 2 Welcome Tour.

SMS Experiment, Day 9: I've started a rally racing game test project meant for the Sega Master System. Will give myself until June to work on it. Just have a basic GSLib project running at the moment. Currently working on graphics. #sega #mastersystem
