Witch n’ Wiz NESDev Competition Build

I just released the ROM for Witch n’ Wiz:

This is a new NES game I’ve been working on for a few months, and this particular release is a sort of “demo” version of the game. I put it together for the annual NESDev Competition.

Update: March 2021

The competition has come to a close and…

Witch n’ Wiz has taken 2nd place!

About the Competition

For those that don’t know, this competition has been the starting point for many of the big name homebrew games of the last few years, such as:

  • Nebs n Debs
  • Project Blue
  • Twin Dragons
  • And more!

About the Game

The NESDev competition has some much stricter restrictions from what I am targeting with the full version of Witch n’ Wiz, so please keep that in mind. The final game will include far more puzzles, gameplay mechanics, characters, locations, music and story!

This version features:

  • 30+ Levels
  • New Puzzle Types every 5-10 Levels
  • Password Save
  • Art by Kenneth Fejer and Haller Zoltan (Wolfling, From Below)
  • Music and Sound by Tui (From Below, Flea, Tapeworm)

Explore 30+ levels, lay waste to countless monsters, and discover cursed artifacts.

But most importantly… find your lost friend, held captive somewhere deep in the castle!

Full game coming Fall 2021!
