I’m proud to announce that my first NES game, LightShields, is complete! I submitted it yesterday to the 2017 NesDev Coding Competition, and now you can try it out for yourself.

A couple weeks ago, I streamed myself playing Nintendo Entertainment System games on Twitch while using a peculiar emulator script. This script, which I wrote using the Lua language, can be applied to any NES ROM, allowing the game to be played as normal. However, every time the ‘A’ button is pressed, more and more glitches start to appear…

Here’s a peak at my first NES game, LightShields. Originally called Spong (a portmanteau of Space and Pong), the game is a space-themed shooter that pits two players against eachother in a very bouncy battle.
