2023 Homebrew Releases: Gameplay video by Papa Pete
Black_Tiger replied to cmadruga's topic in Intellivision Homebrew Awards
I don't understand why anyone would ask someone to proxy message a community you don't want to be a part of and tell them how to do their own community event. This isn't Mattel Electronics in 1982 holding a contest. Feel free to create your own GOTY polls in facebook groups. You can even amalgamate the results. If you're the only publisher who has found a way to make selling Intellivision homebrew games lucrative, you're also in a position to offer up cash prizes and free games to the winners. To show your appreciation of the homebrew scene. Similar to what the publishers who are lucky to break even on homebrew sales have been doing for programming contests. There is a programming contest on right now until the end of April (thanks nanochess & Rev!). They could use some more prizes. https://forums.atariage.com/topic/364177-intybasic-tiny-contest-2024/?fbclid=IwAR0NQ0tyRzlc6OJHGI_aQ8AMksqQK7YWJYNhlAl3PYdWOPoosTQTFkImT9U -

The nomination process put an end to a bunch of inactive accounts logging in once a year to vote for the same publisher's lackluster releases. I think that more than anything justifies the current system. -
POT O' GOLD for the INTELLIVISION : a work in progress
Black_Tiger replied to timdu's topic in Intellivision / Aquarius
The Mame emulation seems pretty poor. While taking screenshots I got pics with different types of glitching and duplicate sprites far apart. There are also only 2(?) labeled dip switch settings and a bunch of unknown. -

POT O' GOLD for the INTELLIVISION : a work in progress
Black_Tiger replied to timdu's topic in Intellivision / Aquarius
While trying to recreate the arcade stages accurately, while still incorporating the barriers, houses and the tower, I got 19 - 42 trees per stage and only sacrificed anywhere from 1 - 6 trees per stage compared to the arcade. To put it into perspective, the Intellivision demo that Papa Pete played has 12 trees per stages without barriers, house or the tower. kells.bmp cannemara.bmp cork.bmp limerick.bmp munster.bmp dingle.bmp tralee.bmp donegal.bmp -
POT O' GOLD for the INTELLIVISION : a work in progress
Black_Tiger replied to timdu's topic in Intellivision / Aquarius
The layout of each stage is always the same except that the pot of gold begins at a different set position each round/cycle of stages. The order of the stages per round/cycle stays the same. The Lephrechaun can grab the pot and move it to mess with you. I used 3 sprites each for the Sleuth/player, which leaves 2 sprites free for the pot. The trees have different "hit" color palettes depending on the stage. The dead trees only remain hit for a short period of time, adding some variety and challenge. -
POT O' GOLD for the INTELLIVISION : a work in progress
Black_Tiger replied to timdu's topic in Intellivision / Aquarius
A separate game mode ("Mysterious Forest"?) with randomized stage layouts would be cool. It defeats the point of having stage names without dedicated layouts or unique assets. Maybe an arcade mode could have the arcade's dedicated stage layouts in a random order, followed by a single random "Unkown forest" layout each round? -

List of ports u want from other systems...
Black_Tiger replied to ZillaRUSH's topic in Intellivision / Aquarius
We need more games with at least optional dual action contoller schemes. Something similar to Gauntlet/Dungeon Explorer would be nice. -

Black_Tiger replied to timdu's topic in Intellivision / Aquarius
I made a set of arcade style assets for Pot of Gold if you'd like to use them. I'm just converting everything and making guides for it now. -
SNES TV
Black_Tiger replied to 0078265317's topic in Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) / Super Famicom
There was more than one SFC/TV combo covered in North American magazines bitd. One was supposed to be exclusive to hotels. There is no regional lock out for SNES/SFC games besides the physical shapes. You can buy adapters to use carts from the other region. -
Can the intellivision use a light gun?
Black_Tiger replied to 8bitwidgets.com's topic in Intellivision / Aquarius
The Zapper sucks and the Light Phaser works great. If a classic light gun is targeted, please use the Light Phaser. -
