Humm... not sure! I haven't sat down yet to count how much I made. But let's say I sold almost 800 games (including the physical edition), I must be close to 10,000$, which is not bad for a small indie retro game.
Sorry for the late response, I just saw your comment. You make a very good point. The physical edition is done, so it's a bit late to make any change. I will think about it, maybe updating the ROM... anyway, thanks for the nice feedback and for taking the time to make this suggestion.
Hey kn56k, just a quick update to let you know the Kickstarter page is now up and running. You can preorder the physical edition here: http://kck.st/4atBRJu

Nice tribute. I would have made the goomba more flat on top so it doesn't look like a spike that's gonna hurt us. When we are standing next to a pipe, we shouldn't bump our head when we jump. Otherwise it looks nice and the sound fx are really cool.
I'm using 2.1.4 and when I use Patterns -> Save 1K from $C0 (or $80) it scrambles the CHR file when I include it in the game. If I open the CHR file in NEXXT it's ok.
Making good and intuitive game mechanics is an art I have yet to master! Your comment is really helpful. I did put a small explanation in the haunted village, a ghost is telling the player to press START to choose a path, but it should probably be at the beginning. Thanks a lot :)
When you finish a level for the first time, the navigation system automatically appears, letting you choose from the different exits available. You can cancel this navigation by pressing B, this is probably what happened. Just press START to bring back the navigation.
At some point early in the development you could make the navigation appear by hitting an opened exit, but this was annoying when you wanted to replay a level, so I removed this feature. In the full game there will be some 'maze' levels that you must hit the exit to get to the next level, but for the normal levels in the demo you have to press START.
