By pledging just a small amount, you get early access to videos on YouTube. If you watch the video before it goes public, you can watch without ads! Additionally, all patrons are granted access to the patron-only channel on the RGME Discord server, and get a weighted opinion when I ask for ideas for upcoming videos.

AVFX 03 - NES Background Parallax
The NES only had a single background layer for placing tiles, but so many games made use of certain features in order to make it look like there were two or more layers present. This video will explain how that was done!
I'm experimenting with adding sound effects to go along with the video animations, so please let me know what you think! It's my first time doing anything like this, so I'll take all the feedback I can get. :)

Pokémon Sprite Decompression
Today we wrap up the Pokémon sprite trilogy with a full blown explanation on the exact decompression algorithm used in the generation I games. This is a pretty long one, but I hope you don't need a computer science degree to understand what's going on since I take a step back to go over some more basic data manipulation techniques.
I have made a webapp that goes along with this video--you can find a link to it here: http://www.dotsarecool.com/rgme/tech/gen1decompress.html You'll probably want to watch the video first to know what's going on!
