The Amazon Jungle - Development Thread

Recommended Posts

The Mayan culture was signficantly much north of the Amazon(as). The culture most associated with the Amazon would be the Chachapoya, but that is hard enough to spell, much less that most Intellivision gamers would catch the reference.

 

That is assuming the game takes place in this region, and is not about a jungle full of female warriors, a.k.a. Amazons. Or for that matter a game about the hoops one has to go through to buy something from Amazon.com, which sometimes can be a real jungle.

It is do able in BG/FG mode as it is the first 8 color of the FG pixel, and 16 color of the BG color. Red/black is fine, Red/Orange is fine, White/Orange is also fine. Colorstack mode isn't doable.

 

It's also doable in Color Stack. You just have to be clever. ;)

You could do it in colour stack mode as follows:-

First set the colour stack to :-

 

C_BLK, C_RED, C_BLK, C_ORG (or STACK_BLACK, STACK_RED, STACK_BLACK, STACK_ORANGE in IntyBASIC)

 

Then at :

 

1 - Mix in STIC.cs_advance (CS_ADVANCE in IntyBASIC) and draw the flames in orange.

2 - Mix in STIC.cs_advance (CS_ADVANCE in IntyBASIC) and draw the gap.

3 - Mix in STIC.cs_advance (CS_ADVANCE in IntyBASIC) and draw the "coals" in white.

Haha! We thought alike! My mental Color Stack was: Black, Red, Black, Orange. The beauty of Color Stack is that you could employ GROM drawing cards as well, which perhaps on this screen may not be necessary, but in others may make a difference in alleviating GRAM requirements.

Heck yeah, that was a cool game, they should made in to a movie instead , of the crystal skull. IMHO. But anyway , if u decide to do it in the future. I will be gladly to give u the real and true history of the continent of Atlantis. Maybe a suggestion at the end of this game. Sydney needs to teleport In a time conveyor. Transported back in time with a alien guide to assist him in his quest . ;)

How many Sydney Hunter games are there? I know of Shrines of Peril and The Lost Tribe, but the Special Collection for sale has "The Cradle of Death" as well. I'm just curious.

 

Here's the Sydney Hunter games list

 

- Shrines of Peril (INtv)

- Sacred Tribe (INtv, ColecoVision)

- Caverns of Death (NES, SNES, Colecovision)

- Curse of the Mayans (Steam, Modern Consoles)
