I have an article series planned for this, but I figure since my brain works more an a “just make the thing why write stuff down?” mentality, I figured it’d be best to keep tabs on my progress here in the blog part of my website.

I’m currently working on an NES nonogram game to showcase and utilize the basic functionality of the MMC1 Mapper for the NES! I’ve gotten a lot of stuff out of the way- UI flow, storing and solving puzzles- but there’s a lot of things to do before it’s finished!

below is a video show casing the current state: we’ve got a main menu, a game screen, and even a game over screen- all lopping seamlessly into one another!

compared to most projects I start and abandon, this one seems to have pretty good start and stop points that make it easier to not over do it, and I think this will definitely be a personal project I finish.
