New to NESMaker here, and don't know ASM but hoping to learn. I'm following tutorials but already have 2 questions I don't understand.
First, I would like to know how to have a simple Lives system. I see this done in other tutorials but it is not explained how to make it work. In the Maze tutorial, touching a monster resets the game. How do I make it so that touching a monster loses 1 life, and just resets the current room? After 3 lives are lost, then it resets the game?
Last, I see something weird with the input that I would like to fix. When moving left, I can press to diagonals Up/Left and Down/Left, and the player still moves left. This is perfect. But when moving right, pressing diagonals Up/Right moves right (perfect) but Down/Right moves the player Down. How do I make it so that rolling the input to Down/Right acts the same as the others and continues to move Right
