Old VS new. Video game distractions and unnecessary peripherals gone. Simplicity.

Back to The Magical Quest starring Mickey Mouse on SNES 🐭✨ Beautiful animation, fun costumes, and classic Capcom polish. A timeless platformer that still feels magical. Did you play this back in the day? 🎮 #magicalquest #retrogaming #nintendo

@DanFessler Hey, somehow yes, Chasm on the Snes !!! It's been a few years that I'm doing various proof of concept about porting Chasm to Snes. This allow me to build a platformer engine using wonderfull assets and pushing Snes to his limits (or almost).

@SNESTesterAlex Progress is quite slow, time to time I get back on the project. It's been a month I'm back on Super Chasm ( it's a demake of @ChasmGame ). Still working on part of the engine. Currently getting the worm boss in place, with some new tricks sprite + BG sprite. Thanks for asking.

@iNCEPTIONALNEWS @retrogaminggeek Argh ChatProutProut (I don't trust IA and might never will...)... I wonder what are his sources for hardware production costs, and also the costs of the team that made the software. If you got any realliable source, I'm interested.

@Lint_ @retrogaminggeek Super Mario World So, I asked ChatGPT—trust?—to use recorded sales at inflation-adjusted prices, estimate adjusted costs (production, retail, marketing), subtract those from inflation-adjusted gross revenue, and calculate net profit, with all figures fully inflation-adjusted.

Somehow we've been brain washed into thinking video games have always cost £40-50 and that we're now being ripped off. I have news for you. Adjusted for inflation: 1992 Gremlins 2: £105 1997 Super Mario 64: £109 2000 Metropolis Street Racer: £76 2007 PGR4 £68

...sigh. It's less me & others are surprised & more & more as time goes on it's just pretty disappointing $70 is the baseline for all 1st party Nintendo games now. Assuming Nintendo's holiday truly was that bad & expectations were exaggerated, idk if Fever's gonna sell well too.

@iNCEPTIONALNEWS @retrogaminggeek I have 2 questions : 1- What is World on Snes ? 2- Where do you got those costs to develop, produce, distribute and market from ? Thanks.

@retrogaminggeek For a rough comparison of total costs to develop, produce, distribute, and market 20M copies (all-in, 2025 dollars): World (SNES, cartridge) — ~$713M Turismo (PS1, CD) — ~$267M Odyssey (Switch, 40% physical / 60% digital) — ~$310M Going more and more digital changes things.

@Jaume96749222 Can't you use a dedicated 16 color palette per frame ? Even if the length is a bit less due to the data of each new palette. But as it is it's look barely usable. But it's already a great tech demo.

@RetroNES_Soft Right there you got two4bpp gfx layers (BG1 / BG2) + one 2bpp gfx layer (BG3) with 4 hdma channel that update the palettes of the BG3 to render hi color even if the layer is 2bpp. The achievement was to mix it all together after I did a POC for the hi color BG3.

@Lint_ Excuse my ignorance, but... What exactly should I look at in that image to appreciate the achievement?

Finally implemented my High Color BG3 with the other BG's. It's using 3 HDMA channels to update 4 palettes every 8 scanlines. Next step, HUD integration, I need to be more flexible with my IRQ handler. Let's code an IRQListHandler ! #snes #snesdev #indiedev #retrogamedev

@SNESTesterAlex Ha ha real life constraints currently make me do small progress… I recently took a few hours to implement lzsa1 compression to level maps and tiles. Next big steps are finishing collision code (25% done) and finishing the « outpost » level integration (60% done)

@iNCEPTIONALNEWS Currently, the 2 4bpp layers are used for the foreground due to original tiles layout by Chasm. But yeah those 2 layers could be totally different and could allow an additional parallax effect.

@Lint_ I'm curious — since you used the 2bpp background for the lovely distant hills and sky, and I only see one 4bpp foreground layer here, does that mean there's another 4bpp layer you haven't shown yet that could be used for an additional layer of foreground parallax or whatever?
