A NES rendition of the original Monte del Diablo art by Inkiluanna

Doing this involved refactoring the core to work in both a browser environment and a headless nodejs environment. The webapp is featureful and easy to use.

Additionally, I figured something was missing: the images we were generating where technically correct, but there was something on them that didn’t evoke the original NES art… and I think it was the fact that I was generating full screen images which, while possible in the NES, would likely have taken a prohibitive amount of ROM! so in reality the images where much smaller in the screen. I added some controls for that and they look already much more NES-like.
