It seems to work, but some glitches are there. e.g. some gfx garbage below the witch.

My question would be do all the frames have the same size and are they all been drawn at the same scale ?.

If all the sprites have the same dimension and at a scale for 1:1 then you may have the height wrong.

If the sprite does not fill the space top to bottom ( say you have a couple of blank likes at the top , but none at the bottom )  then after the last frame you have other stuff then you will see this.  Frames 0 -> n-1 will display at the bottom the top lines from the next frame, Yet on the last frame you dont have the the gap and so you see garbage

the assets are generated by Aseprite, on a full row so I'm sure every frame is the same size (and 8 based)

 

BUT

 

loaded from ROM and scaled, so it's possible bug comes from the way JStudio/Raptor handles the REMAINDER (like we saw on the thread about the scale bug)

in this case, already scaled asset unpacked from ROM to RAM should fix the issue
it's the only scaled animated sprite so it won't broke a lot of code

I'm clearly disqualified so I'm not part of the contest anymore.
Contest was a reason to jump on the Jaguar dev wagon, the cherry on the cake.

I can officially remove me of the contest if you want, I don't care now, I'm on the "I want it to work" way
 

And this could help futures developers too

Cheers man! I totally get your frustration and it is a pity that the game does not run on original hardware - yet. But as you're delving deeper into this, it will be great to see it finally run on the real Jag. Don't remove yourself from the jam, though! I am very glad it gave you an incentive to start coding on the Jaguar, and I hope you'll stay on that wagon, exploring other ideas in the future! Because this is what I can already tell you: There being five (and so very different) entries to this jam is very delightful to see, and it makes me want to do this again next year. I'm glad that knowledgable people here can help you improve things, really looking forward to the game when you're done. So don't give up, stay positive and thank you very much for being a part of this Jagjam!
