gba felt like a diet version of uxxl to be honest
I think it was found on Laforest's own website? But not this exact version tho. This one sounds different about 50 seonds in.
yeah, I know about the one on Laforest's website, but this one sounds more finalized and higher quality
Indeed. You said it does play in a GBA emulator when you test it?
Cuz that really doesn't feel like something the GBA should be able to do, at all
How big is the prototype file?
The release final is 8 MB
this .gba-file is about 8MB as well
I'm really lost as to how it's possible.
The GBA has no soundchip. The CPU does everything
I wonder if ROG has more insight into that, since he's already ripped the track
The CPU is supposed to be quite busy enough with the 3D graphics in a quite high framerate...
Allister Brimble is the final composer for XXL GBA if I recal right.
maybe they had special GBA's for debugging that had better chips? 🤔
If you make the GBA play music with good samples, like the Final Fantasy Advance games, Mother 3 or Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, it leaves less power to the graphics, often causing lag.
Mario Kart Super Circuit had to use low quality samples to retain 60FPS mode-7 with 8 racers and other items on screen.
Still, the emulator can play it...
What if they had some sort of emulator back then to quickly work on the game and check the modifications in the computer
This is just blowing my mind.
