Wack a Mole! My first NES game :P
by on (#238815)
Hello to everyone,
after a lot of battles finally my first Game for NES comes out to some public test. The goal of the game is to hit the moles before they goes out, more moles you hits, more time you gain and more points you gets. Every feedback is important for me, especially on the graphics side. The next step is to release the source code and put the game on a Cartridge. All game is written with NESASM 3.0 on a NROM.

Very cute little game!

If I may offer some artistic criticism, I'm not a big fan of the featureless (for the most part) player sprite. Might I suggest a common predator, like a cat, or some kind of canine?

I grew up on a farm, and our animals were always bringing us the moles that they managed to catch.
