Mario Kart-like game could be made with usual pseudo-3d road, actually - that way Street Racer (a Mario Kart clone) was made for Sega Genesis. On SNES it uses Mode7, and on PSX and Saturn it has polygonal 3D. So it looks very different on every system, but plays similarly.

What I didn't liked is the acceleration in the air. Like, I make a jump from a stand, and the character suddenly accelerates while in the air, before touching the ground. It is impossible to increase acceleration in jump in real life (if you don't have a jetpac), so it look and feels not natural. SM...

Not enough for a fast-paced game, for sure. This was achieved with Z80 @7 MHz, a lot of RAM, and framebuffer directly accessible for CPU at any time, and the code was well optimized.

I recall a pirate cart with a motorcycle 'fake 3d' racer with Mario characters.

tepples, I know what the MSDN is, etc. Just tell me what exactly you need, not what common practices are. Alternatively, you can do the changes by yourself, the place is /src/machine/nsf.c, line 383.

tepples, I can modify it if you have certain request - like 'put the file in .. dir' or 'display message box'. Also, I can't check if it works under non-administrator rights. Bregalad, low average time is important thing, but peak time is also important, because usually it is few times greater than ...

In WinAmp (or other player you use) folder.

High quality picture conversions and few animations were discussed in this thread.

I don't get how to use the thing, it is really cryptic. Regstered. Downloaded ZIP - a folder with three other folders, one of them is full of exe's. One that seems the one I need asks password, then tells that hub is not found or something. There are a lot of options in the window - open file etc, n...

Didn't noticed it is jsr, not jmp. Well, ManicGenius probably had reasons to add this. It wasn't like this in the original version.

Seems it is just an unnecessary line, added by some reason. It still works the same.

Maybe not good and not GPL, but free - FamiTone

15% is normal for a sound driver - check these numbers, they are for music only.

I've made a minor update, without changing version number. Now text2data and nsf2data can output files in NESASM, CA65, and Asm6 formats. More details about TextExporter usage added into readme.txt, as thefox suggested.

What Zepper said + big explosion at the end.

Actually, this makes sense if you want to make very authentic looking NES-style retro game or demake for PC or other modern system - emulate PPU and APU, with game code in the system's native code.

I use Graphics Gale for most of pixel art, sometimes GIMP as well, and my custom tools, of course. Generally I just draw graphics with Gale following system's limitations, and then convert it with my tools into needed format. I've used MS Paint for long time. It is not very suitable for pixel art, a...
