- NovaDudely 3y agoHa... look at that. Not bad at all! I wonder how many machines at the time could power through that? ;) Talking about these little tile and scrolling tricks. Golden Axe on the Master System had to get around the sprite size limit by having the entirety of the graphics live on the background layer. This meant everything sat and moved in an 8x8 pixel grid. A neat little hack even if it made the whole thing a little chunky.
