Status of Update 2.0

Famidash 2.0 is taking a lot longer than i thought it would. turns out rewriting the entire game from scratch is very time-consuming, especially for a college student working full-time. i'll try to keep yall posted

In the meantime, check out gd3ds! it's your favorite square game on the funny dual-screened 3d device!

Update 2.0 is in the works!

Famidash is, well, let's face it, bloated. Lots of bugs to be fixed, lots of small quirks to work around.

Compiled using the much better LLVM-MOS C compiler, and powered by SniperEngine, Famidash 2.0 will be a complete rewrite of the game intended to improve graphics, sound, playability, and most importantly, BANISH OLDER EMULATORS.

Okay, jokes aside, the emulator thing has been a problem plaguing our community for almost 2 years now. We've had FAR too many people complaining that the game doesn't work on Delta, which is based on a VERY inaccurate emulator known as Nestopia. Starting with 2.0, the game will display a warning if you're playing on one of these emulators, as it is an absolute nightmare to support all of their edge-cases.
