Oh boy, here we go again #NESdev

You know how with 32k switching in #NESdev you don't have a fixed bank and have to duplicate some code?

Thanks to gratuitious SRAM, 2k RAM remained free.

"Wait, why not just load the duplicated code into SRAM? SRAM won't switch banks. SRAM IS a fixed bank?!🧙🪄💡"

savings across all ROM banks 🥲

That looks neat! I have a similar thing for FCEUX which got a little out of hand over the years.

What's your reason for not using Mesen btw? ;)

Simultaneous multiplayer games on the NES can be a tough nut to crack. #NESdev

Current game lags a lot in 4-player mode! To aid in optimizing, I made a little profiler that lets you track CPU cycles spent down to the opcode level.

Will post more about this game over at @morphcat.bsky.social :-)
