What happens when a Haniwa commits to a exercise routine and puts in the work? You get the Gigahan, one of the enemies you will encounter in Even Goblins Fall In Love.

Shout-out to the person at last week's IGDA DC event who noticed that I had used "researches" instead of "researchers" in one of Even Goblins Fall In Love's NPC lines.

That typo had escaped notice for quite a while.

I do not understand how the NES system bus works, even after reading multiple tutorials. Only one way to find out... #electronics #NES #NESdev
Open question in NESdev: measure the worst-case setup and hold time for the NES PPU, so we can have a proper timing diagram. Apparently it has never been done, even after we have transistor-level emulators. You need many hard-to-obtain samples across revisions and date codes, and the question only matters if your cartridge ROM is slow enough to walk on the edge of stability. This is irrelevant to emulators and 99.99% of homebrew developers with <= 150 ns chips (unless you're a stubborn developer like me who wants to bitbang the NES bus), which is why nobody has done it. #NES #NESdev

Crossing a bridge towards the final castle while carrying the requisite Macguffin sword will spark a boss battle that will open up a path to the end of the game.

Here's a first look at the Jabberwock, the final boss of Even Goblins Fall In Love.

It took a lot of work and a bit of trickery to get this image into the game, but it was totally worth it.
