I'm proud to introduce my new romhack, The Legend of Zelda: Ancient Dungeon. It's a hack of Zelda 1 on NES that changes the game into a roguelike! Venture through an ever-changing dungeon with randomized battles. You can download it now at https://t.co/Idu3JJDgYC

Finished Rock ‘n’ Ball last night! 208 games completed. The battle pinball boards are such a cool idea for two player, but they were pretty annoying against the CPU.

Next up is Faxanadu. I’ve never played this! I’m pretty hyped about getting into it.

@yuzokoshiro One of the very best on NES/Famicom, both soundtrack and game

@NESFans1 @NES_Professor I still have mine! I’ve beaten 3 of the 6 games for it

[arnpoly (208) @arnpoly]

Blogs should return sometime soon as well. I have many written up already, about half the backlog cleared in drafts!

[arnpoly (208) @arnpoly]

I’ve been bad at updating but I’ve also been good at clearing more NES games!
- 204 Kickle Cubicle
- 205 Goal!
- 206 Super Pitfall
- 207 Last Action Hero
- 208 Rock ‘n Ball (in progress!)

@pastel_orbit That’s such a clever trick, thanks for sharing!

The first in a series of #blog posts deep-diving into #Faxanadu for #NES, going over how it all works.

We're starting with IScripts (Interaction Scripts). These compact binary scripts are run whenever you interact with an NPC or item.

@NES_Professor Rock ‘n Ball is next on my list 😁

[arnpoly (208) @arnpoly]

@PeteSkerritt What level did you get to? There’s a tough boss in the middle of the game

[arnpoly (208) @arnpoly]

@mrtastybao @johnblueriggs Slackanater has beaten this damageless already 🙂

@AndrewGspeedrun You know someone tried to eat it
