Considering the cart size, this is<br /> probably the only version that will hit lexaloffle.</p> <p>When I was 9, I was obsessed with Nintendo and wanted to make my own games. Using sheets of graph<br /> paper, I constructed Mario-style levels with what I imagined were near impossible jumps and tons<br /> of spikes. That's really where it all started for me and this is my love letter to the genre.</p> <p>This game would not exist without countless incredible games, most notably Mega Man, Super Mario<br /> World (especially the works of the talented people on smwcentral), Celeste, Kitsune Tails,<br /> Super Puzzled Cat, and Sylvie Lime. </p> https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=147883 https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=147883 Mon, 17 Mar 2025 05:17:13 UTC Chaotic Computer Music Emulation Engine <p> <table><tr><td> <a href="/bbs/?pid=161672#p"> <img src="/bbs/thumbs/pico64_ccmee-2.png" style="height:256px"></a> </td><td width=10></td><td valign=top> <a href="/bbs/?pid=161672#p"> ccmee</a><br><br> by <a href="/bbs/?uid=90197"> fantasticfox</a> <br><br><br> <a href="/bbs/?pid=161672#p"> [Click to Play]</a> </td></tr></table> </p> <p>This is a music composition tool of sorts.
