I hit a milestone in one of my personal projects, so I wanted to share! I’ve finally completed the new Background system for my homebrew Nintendo DS project. The video illustrates the end result (Streaming hardware backgrounds with multiple parallax, animated tiles and smooth scrolling), but the system itself comprises of a full tool chain for building and compiling/optimizing map data, through to better management of them at runtime!
You can download the rom and try it for yourself!
I hope to make some of this tech available as a stand alone tutorial at some point in the future, time permitting 🙂
