I’d love to include our NES homebrew, Banana Bash!
Free demo ROM is here:
work3studio.weebly.com/free-demo125...
It won Best Gameplay at MAGFest!
Thanks for putting this together — it’s such a cool initiative for the homebrew community.
I hate to say this, but Banana Bash will need more time.
We’ve made incredible progress, but final code still isn’t complete.
It’s frustrating, but we want this to be the best it can be, and worth your patience.
We now expect "code complete" around Q1 '26
Sorry. 😓
Life's too short for shit movies.

I've been working on packaging solutions and final promo stuff in between.
Been looking for a job primarily. Lots of leads and dancing around, but no signed contract yet. Western industry is a slaughterhouse ATM, so looks like I'll be at a JP company again..

Since Banana Bash stars cartoon animals and I only have myself to rely on, that’s tricky! But after months of head-scratching, I think I finally came up with a solution. Hope it’s fun!
