This project allows you to play the Mario Drawing Song from the Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros. on your computer. This is used for debugging any replacement animations that you might be loading in. It is designed to run very similar to how it's implemented on the Game & Watch. Some differences include decoding animation frames in one update instead of several, using array indexing instead of a running pointer, and some code reorganization. However, it should be generally representative of what you'll find on the Game & Watch.

Getting started

Please put the decrypted external flash image as external.bin in the StreamingAssests folder. If you are customizing your animation, you may want to adjust the animation and audio length in Config.cs.

Controls

Arrow keys: select language. This is available while the animation is playing in addition to being available on the language menu.
Enter: starts animation when on the language menu.
Escape: pause/resume the animation.
F5: reload all assets. Useful if you have changed external.bin while the program is still running.
