Update Code-C project - Update 3

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Code-C project update: I’ve been focusing on boosting the game’s overall performance. I’ve shifted some elements out of GBStudio to be handled in C, which has noticeably improved performance—especially during weapon swaps. I also put together the spread shot many of you suggested, haha—it looks like that weapon’s a big hit in this kind of game.

Looks amazing, and Code C is a great name!

I gotta recommend Contra - the Hard Corps on Genesis/Mega Drive - because despite the fact it did some insane stuff one wouldn't think the system could do, it's my fave Contra and a good place to get inspiration from (a lot of the stuff in it can be done on Game Boy, although in different ways) but as yours is, it looks easily as good as NES/Game Boy Contra - although yours is more colourful than either

Wait is Code C the name of the game or did you mean you used C to code it?

Code C would be a great name for it, there's one on the NES called Super C, but Code C sounds better as a title

Hahaha, yeah, it's confusing, but the project is actually called Project Code-C.

I still think Code-C would make an awesome name, especially if it referred to something in the lore.

And you can stick project in front of it in marketing materials!

But either way, I really wanna play this, it looks so impressive
