Did you know Mario Kart and F-Zero never actually had a Lap counter in the HUD? They just told you the lap number when you passed the line. It was NEVER an issue. #gameDesign #nintendo

I think I've nearly perfected this VFX sequence that I've been using for video outros in this latest video. I'm pretty happy with the tile-based transition to GameBoy graphics/hardware. It gives me enough time to talk yet it's not subtle, so I'm hoping it can keep attention till the end
