Vectrex28 | 366 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 (edited) Well, you've probably already seen this on Twatter, but I'll share it here as well anyway. Here's my 3D engine on the NES with textures! Still has a few issues but I'll leave it at that for now and focus on Space Soviets for a bit. Enjoy! raycaster.nes Edited September 11, 2020 by Vectrex28 Typo 1 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadeye | 1,596 Homebrew Team · Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Any plans for a full game using your 3D engine in the future? Also, NES Doom? J/K, I know been said many times already. Very impressive stuff you have here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vectrex28 | 366 Posted September 11, 2020 Author Share Posted September 11, 2020 Well, if I ever go back to it I might try doing some sort of dungeon crawler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH | 4,898 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 That looks amazing. Is there a YouTube video of it for us mobile viewers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vectrex28 | 366 Posted September 11, 2020 Author Share Posted September 11, 2020 It's an older version, the new ROM has slightly better FPS and more tiles 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, seriously, this is unbelievable. I can't wait to see the demo "finished". Regarding making a game, I think this could be quite useful, but I'd recommend dropping the idea of an FPS (unless you can make it much faster.) Instead, brainstorm and get creative thinking of a type of game that could utilize a 3D environment but not really benefit from twitch reactions. Maybe an escape puzzle or possibly something like Shadowgate or a turn-based RPG. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaC | 104 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Pretty neat. I always wondered how one rasterizes into a framebuffer on NES when it has none. Thought everything was done with tile tables or some such thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a total wildcard, work up something like The Witness (previous NES demake just involved typical overhead RPG view, from what i recall -- but with raster you can work in genuine perspective-based environmental puzzles) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
