Hello #retrogaming fans and #nintendoDS owners: #BilouSchoolRush finally has a itchio page:

pypebros.itch.io/bilou-school...

Help the world notice it ;-)

Bilou School Rush by PypeBros Run fast and find the ink gates before the library is flooded

Wednesday's #gamedev talk & drink pushed me into making me an itch.io page ... And preparing one for #BilouSchoolRush. Which might become the first ever #nintendods game on the platform. Does it looks like a nice page to you ? Any tip ?

I wonder whether it would run #TwinbeeRainbowBellsAdventure ...
(or #BilouSchoolRush, for that matter :P)

My proudest achievement on the #NintendoDS is the platformer #BilouSchoolRush that has been under development between 2013 and 2018. Mostly because I got feedback from real #gamedev people like Romain Claude, Eric Zmiro and Philippe Dessoly

I could make "attach" the #onetagperweek... sylvainhb.blogspot.com/search/label...

It gathers #gamedev posts about how my engine allows some entities to adjust their behaviour to others. Many of #BilouSchoolRush mechanics were using it: grabbing, hanging, riding ...

Back in 2020, following suggestion by @caseportman.dev , I described #BilouSchoolRush as #DonkeyKongCountry-like running (hopefully) in a #Zool -like world. Hopefully with #SMW -like moves.

okay, so that's essentially github.com/hydr8gon/noods #nintendoDS emulator ... curious to figure out with @cyborgjeff.bsky.social whether that'd allow to run #BilouSchoolRush on his big screen ^_^

October update Building our dream games from the nineties on NDS. From bits to gameplay.

( if you want to give it a try, there's a #BilouDreamLand demo in sylvainhb.blogspot.com/2024/10/octo... and the latest game #BilouSchoolRush in sylvainhb.blogspot.com/2018/12/scho... )

If you do, I hope you'll have a copy of #BilouSchoolRush nearby ;-)

Hop, Grab the sponge, follow the balancing move, jump of, bounce over a pencil-soldat, bounce agai... oops. missed. That was the ink pool. Quick! hop out. Jump over that second penci- oops. Missed again. Aah now he's chasing you! rush! jump over the ink! there. In the inkpot. Let it throw you up and get that glowing blue ball to recover one hit point.

And of course, there was #BilouSchoolRush, my latest completed #platformer game. Expect 30' gameplay once you've mastered mechanics... Maybe you can beat it in 15' with #speedrun training.

Round 3 (sylvainhb.blogspot.com/search/label...) where SMW and SMB3 analysis were used to fine-tune the gameplay of #BilouSchoolRush ... (and some reverse-engineering discoveries of #nesdev and SNES mario titles)
