This looks cool. Definitely want to try it out when it gets finished! Love Gauntlet! I wonder if anyone will ever have an in game level editor for their own NESmaker game?

The most interesting thing about NES Gauntlet is that the monsters are animated background tiles, not sprites. That's how they get around the small sprite limit. They move jerkily because it has to be eight pixels at a time.

That is so cool! If I can figure out how to do it, I'm making Gauntlet V!!!!

I've done this with my strategy game (WIP still) with the enemy AI... but it's 16x16 tiles so I dont think that'll help much

Awesome stuff!
A few years back I wanted to do a game based around Ghost Month in Taiwan. I was chatting with a good friend of mine, and he suggested the obvious - just make a Pac-Man clone. It didn't feel right though, and when we got working on things, we opted instead to do a game called Hungry Ghost Night. We took the main inspiration from Gauntlet, then added an exploration component like you'd find in Zelda.
