How long before the Nintendo lawyers strike it down?

There's a reason why that guy completely rewriting Mario 64 to run at 60FPS on original hardware has said that he's never releasing it.

I was actually just wondering about how A Fox in Space can exist for so long without Nintendo getting up the creator's ass.

It's a series of cartoons featuring the cast of Star Fox. It's been featured on Adult Swim.

This video is really entertaining and well made.

Well that’s fucking cool.

Yeah, what's nice is he does tweak the levels a little bit too to make it feel more like the original (even though it's in 3D). Like some enemies follow you, or bullet bills appearing from the clouds below (to avoid adding new cannons).

At the end you really start to understand how differently you need to approach 2D vs 3D platform design.

This was a fun watch, even though I don't think it would be worth playing. I don't know anything about making games, what engine would one use to do stuff like this?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Most 3D engines would be suitable for this. Unreal was used in the video but the same could be done in Godot or Unity.

Gonadtendo? Who names these sites? They beat me to it, whomever they be
