Super Tilt Bro

Nintendo's consoles before the N64 do not have their Super Smash Bros game. Let's fix it! Super Tilt Bro is a NES hombrew project aiming at porting the "versus platformer fighting" to this good old system that made our childhood.

Last tagged build is playable here.

Building

Build dependencies

  • XA cross assembler for 6502.
    • Actually a fork of it, with increased memory limits. You can find it here.
  • 6502-gcc
  • Huffmunch
  • python >= 3.2
  • pillow library for python

A script to get all dependencies built and setup is in deps/.

(You may still want to install python and pillow by yourself, the script will install it only it it has root privilege.)

$ deps/build-deps.sh

Building

If you built dependencies in deps/, from the source repository run

$ XA_BIN=$(pwd)/deps/xa65-stb/xa/xa CC_BIN=$(pwd)/deps/gcc-6502-bits/prefix/bin/6502-gcc HUFFMUNCH_BIN=$(pwd)/deps/huffmunch/huffmunch ./build.sh

It will generate the game as Super_Tilt_Bro_(E).nes. If any problem occurs you may find clues in the build.log file.

Note: Super_Tilt_Bro_(E).nes requires the support for the RAINBOW mapper, which is not yet included in any emulator. You can play it with a fork of FCEUX here or play tilt_no_network_unrom_(E).nes (without networking) in any emulator.

Playing

You will need a NES emulator with two controllers configured. Each controller controls a character and the goal is to send the other out of screen.

Controller mapping:

            Move right                            Attacks

You can use different moves by holding a direction when pressing the attack or special move button.
