As you guys know, I make chiptunes for the NES and release albums on cart. I've ALWAYS believed in my heart of hearts that there's more artists out there and in the bottom of my heart secretly believed that one day I could organize a compilation album. That day is today. well, this is the easy part, generating hype. I'd like to just use famitracker for the ease of famitone exportation- and i'm sure they'll be instrument limitations (like only use x number of instruments), but that'll get tagged in the below (upcoming) table. Who's in? have a song (or two) in your heart that you'd like pressed and released to the world??!?!?!? I have my website (bleepbop or bleepboprecords) as a platform for distribution and we all have a lot of social media presence for marketing... who's in? @TylerBarnes @Jaden @KHAN Games?

wow. hey, that's some solid shit right there. you dont even need the extra fx track, you can stack some of those effects one after the other... I got the forked FT, and immediately shook my fist at the cloud- I've never found anything in the original FT to inhibit my work and really like my selection being stopped at the end of a frame! Anyway, i screwed around with some stuff - have you considered offsetting and lowering the volume when you have two tracks doing the same thing? specifically, pulse and triangle in frame 29 (pattern 28 for both)? Having spent a solid ten years with NES chiptune, I love to see artists embrace FT. Do you have other tracks? I think we officially have enough artists for a comp cartridge... A few songs, a little animation... I already have a pretty clean distribution system in place... I'll start a different thread and begin bugging people

@Jaden posted some tunes, put em up here! Also, I tried to load your ftm file and was given the error message that i wasn't using the latest version of FT- I'm using 0.4.6 (the website's latest), is there a newer build?! if so- link?

hey, welcome! Let's continue this in the privacy of the club... step this way.

great job on the graphic!!!

So. Jealous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm gonna be still drunk at 8am in the greater toronto area if you need me to stop by and help liven things up....

INL has the warning "NOTE! This game utilizes 4-screen mirroring which is not compatible on most clone consoles. High end clones such as the AVS & NT should support." Anyone play this on an AVS? it cool?

THAT too. also, moar likes, bro.

A+B+select

hey- who's doing your music?!?!?

12 days of xmas mutha fukaaaaaaaa!

I thought 2013 was the best one

right after the 4th of July until Aug 1st- it's the four or five weeks whence I do retrousb's xmas cart music.

I got a chance to play this at retrogamecon- it's so damn cool. I couldn't hear the music because of the voices in my head general noise, but wow, great soundscape @Digit2600!

my BRAIN chooses to. i choose my brain. so the... wait, who's this guy?

my chiptune production company's logo!

let me take a shower and think about it... @Gloves

the problem is, when presenting "nesmaker" as a label, it looks like a warning- it makes "nesmaker" a pejorative term. Is a Nesmaker game the same quality as a 'from the ground up' assembly game? i've heard folks snipe-in and say the nesmaker is glitchy. meaning: there are glitches embedded in the the tool itself that effect the game, which can't be fixed in a way that a ground-up assembly game can be tested and fixed. so... IF you can show a video, screenshot, whatever, of a nesmaker game that is unfixable glitchy because of the nesmaker system itself, THEN slap the "nesmaker" warning on it. IF you can't provide such evidence and no one should can tell the difference, THEN this is divisive elitist home-brew gatekeeping that makes the community look bad. The differentiation between tools is an argument that disrupts the focus of effort: making a video game. The only reason to put the NesMaker sticker on it is to advertise Joe's path towards home brewing- anything else feels like a warning or judgement of quality, whether intended or not.

Damnnnnnn! Thanks for giving it a shot it’s a very cool idea and I hope they continue to explore different avenues of music production and distribution!

now THAT'S baiting the hook!

damn it, the changes look amazing and I hate sega. Now it looks like a solid stupid video game movie. well done, sega, well done.

shoveled this morning- a little over a foot on the driveway. the kids and cousins played all yesterday and it made my heart happy. also, fucking shoving sucks.
