Thank you everyone for your help! I couldn't justify spending time making these videos without your support.

So that's why Bowser fight takes place at a dark bg with no detail?
The quality of these videos is absolutely insane.
I find this extremely engrossing but I'm to stupid to understand all the information presented. Its important work though to preserve this information.
I really want to make a "why not?" joke, but all that math seems to have melted my brain and I can't come up with anything.
I had no idea the pendulum in CT was a mode-7 background, this video just blew my mind.
When people always complained in math class, "when will I ever use this in real life?"
As a developer I really like your presentation of this information. If I didn't already have a hobby, making a homebrew game would have been a fun way to go.
Also worth pointing out, despite what people think, Axelay does not use Mode 7 for its screen 'melting' effect. That is done by line scrolling.
Look at all this matrix multiplication and trigonometry and hex. And I still understand it. Are you a wizard?
This is the best Mode 7 video ever created!
You just tricked all SNES gamers into learning some linear algebra I'm sure they hated at university lol. Well done man!
Today, I learned that Chrono Trigger's title screen's pendulum was NOT an Object, and that Bowser was part of the background the whole time.
>the pendulum never swinged at all
....this is the first practical use of the culmination of everything I've been learning in classes over years. I'm actually interested in graphics now, and at a crossroads where I can pursue that. Thank you so much for these videos.
Speedrunner: it's called a subpixel
It was nice to finally put my linear algebra skills actually to use! :P
Brilliant visual communication as always!
Pretty good explanation.
When you said X naught and Y naught the first things that popped into my head were the X-Nauts from TTYD and Wynaut from Pokemon.
Do you have a paypal address for one-off donations?
