Hi there! I've finished my NES game, feel free to try it out, it's free and open source:
github.com/shinryakuwu/-the-su
It's also about 15 minutes long.
I've been running it on FCEUXD SP all the time, but technically, any emulator should work.
I'll try to release it somewhere as soon as I draw a cover. Would be happy for any feedback.

Castlevania III: Dracula’s Castle

Year: 1989
By: Konami Kukeiha Club (Hidenori Maezawa, Jun Funahashi, Yukie Morimoto)

The Castlevania series is noteworthy for its baroque-infused tunes. The third major entry in the series for the Famicom went a step further by making use of the VRC6 soundchip, right into the game cartridge. This allowed for deeper saw bass and complex harmonies thanks to the extra audio channels. Unfortunately, this is only true of the Japanese version — the NES counterpart had to be cut down significantly, but still retains some charm thanks to the strong original compositions shining through, as well as some clever adaptation tricks and choices.

Comparisons between the two versions would be worthy of an entire blog post, but for the sake of this selection, I’ll only feature the original Famicom soundtrack here.

By the way, this is not the only time you’ll hear about Castlevania in this thread…

I have a bit of a #famicom collection. I don't chase the pristine cartridges and pay a fortune, I'm opportunistic and grab the cheaper 'well-loved' carts. Most of them are damaged in some way and have grime that can't be easily removed without risking cracking the shells. You can see that here on the side seams and how the label is peeling away at the top.

I'm planning a little web/video project to share my love of 'medium-condition game cartridges' and have been taking some test shots.

Hi everyone!

Loooooong overdue move to the fediverse.

We're a small collective of people trying to do new things with old things. We have released an indie game for the NES and Famicom consoles. The game is about whistleblowing and corporate/governmental manipulation of public opinion in relation to ecological issues. There are good jokes too :)

You can download the game on itch.io (pay/donate what you want) iodinedynamics.itch.io/whatrem or you can build a cartridge yourself! See moddingfridays.bleu255.com/Wha
