...How much of the 16MB ram are you using to store all the sprites you might need for the current fight? 😆 That's gotta be a decent amount of memory to keep things looking soooo fluid!!

Yeah, doing that and a few other tricks, the wall rendering is super fast!
I've not found a nice way to get the floor / ceiling rendering anywhere near as fast though, since the memory reads there aren't very cache friendly :(

wow the bluesky compression really didn't like the heavy noise on this one huh?
playdate has a black & white screen so I make heavy use of blue noise for dithering to get a greyscale feel 😅

Thanks for the kind words! Glad the level transitions & polish stands out 🤩 We put a lot of work into them!

Funny story: Journey had no automatic shadows. I painted them all by hand. The shadow texture was not hi-res. To get the iconic sunset columns to cast sharp shadows, I made sure that they aligned with the pixel grid of the texture. Here you can see the shadow map I painted.

Takes a bit of manual effort to skim through the results so probably not great when you're following a huge amount of people! (It gets a decent amount wrong but it's pretty obvious when it's right)
