how do i use it?
(dumb question)
Hello; unfortunately it's not currently in a very usable state; if you run "index.js" using node, it will read "original/example-project.html", convert and export the third map into "experiment/data"; then, the "Makefile" on the "experiment" folder can be run to generate a SMS ROM that shows the converted level.
For now, it's on a very early experimental state.
Brilliant idea. Yesterday i got my Master System, so i will watch this space :-) Many thanks for your work!
You're welcome!
Just to let you know, Pocket Platformer has some new feature revealed. Check the devlog when you can to see what's up?
woah! for someone with a Mega EverDrive X5 that can play SEGA Master System games, this look REALLY interesting. :O
question, how does this handle PAL, NTSC etc?
Hello! At the moment it is in a very early stage; in the feature it may implement some form of detection.
thank you.
Haroldo is one of my favorite programmers on the planet :) He always shares his source code with everybody!
Thanks! :P
I'm very glad you kept working on this and my idea aren't in vain.
I'll check this out later down the line. <3
Thanks! :P
