Raptor Basic

[Mega Man 2600 $$$ Double Dragon 2]

Post this in the BB forum,someone will offer to code.

[River Patrol great game]

Always liked the arcade game

[Ready for a homebrew Game Gear game?]

Awesome looking forward to it.

Not trying to derail the thread but...what's Lemon Drop about?

[Ready for a homebrew Game Gear game?]

I like how large the giant house looks.

[Hyper Sentinel now on kickstarter]

The funding was unsuccessful,maybe for their next kickstarter they don't ask for such an insane amount.

[Hyper Sentinel now on kickstarter]

Then there's the hipsters. And I'll just stop right there.

 

This game looks like it's geared toward them, with their ironically 3D low-res pixelated models with realtime light and shadow so you can see how retro it is! BIG hit at Starbucks I'm sure. Unless I hear that the game is actually fun in its own right, I doubt I'll be interested.

 

 

 

 

 

That sums up how I feel also,this is a big skip for me.

[Ready for a homebrew Game Gear game?]

If your not comfortable with adding the code above that's fair,will give it a play a little later today..good job on the fix.

[Commodore Programming Question]

Nowadays 99% of programming is done with cross assemblers.I would assume most all code was done on a c64 unless you worked for a company,feel free to correct me though.

Very professional looking Brian O

[Ready for a homebrew Game Gear game?]

The whale stage looks neat,It plays pretty good although I'm not crazy about the jump physics.If your using states for player,enemies you could have this in the Mr.Ultra Jumping State.Take a look at alex kidd in shinobi world,this code is the function it uses.

  ld hl,(_MrUltraYVelocityPtr)
  ld de,68                       ;Gravity
  ld a,(_JoyPad)
  and Button1

  ld a,(_MrUltraJumpAccent)

[Panky the Panda - new WIP homebrew]

Thanks for the reply LS_Dracon it's encouraging to hear you attained authorization for your homebrew.

[Panky the Panda - new WIP homebrew]

I like this game so much that I'd love to see it on the c64,I've messaged the author about permission to recode the game..fingers crossed he's ok with it.Anyway I've only done alittle so far as I didn't want to start putting hours into this if it's not going to happen.

[Carrot Kingdom™ - Work in Progress 32K! - New Demo 10-16-2017]

Thomas is correct this is quite easy in assembly

  ldx _JumpAccent
  beq +
  dec _JumpAccent
  lda _Joystick
  and #JoyStickPressedUp    ;adjust for atari 2600
  bne ++
  ldx #0
+:
  stx _JumpAccent
  lda #32                   ;adjust gravity as needed
  clc
  adc _ObjYVelocityL
  sta _ObjYVelocityL
  txa
  adc _ObjYVelcoityH
  sta _ObjYVelocityH
  bmi ++
  cmp #SomeLimit            ;Adjust as needed
  bcc ++
  stx _ObjYVelocityL
  lda #SomeLimit
  sta _ObjYVelocityH
++:
  rts

Good job on the game

[Atari 7800 Programming: Help?]

7800basic is a good choice and you can make some impressive games with it.Don't feel shy to ask questions as we were all beginners once,it's going to take some patience from you to learn but stick it out and a new world will open up for you.

[Atari 7800 Programming: Help?]

If you're not heavily familiar with 6502 assembly I'd start with c64 to begin with until your knowledge of 6502 is good enough to develop for a good system.Their is also 7800 basic if you choose the basic route.If you can understand some of my code than 6502 is for you if not basic is the correct choice for now.

What is your obsession with Papi Commando? :Dgame looks good.

[The Wanderers WIP]

Any update on this project Link?

[C64 crap game competition]

That may seem quite large for older consoles,computers but it isn't all that large for c64.I guess it depends on how versatile a person wants the charset,sprite frames.Some people sent in their entries in a day or two so I'm expecting some very low quality games.Of course compression is a rule I think"exomizer,pucrunch ect.."my own entry is handled in 2x2 blocks instead of 1x1 to save on space.I'm sure some mediocre and good quality games will be entered also,kinda fun to implement bad ideas and it's encouraged

Are you the worst game coder ever?here is your chance to prove it.

[Jaguar 2 vs nintendo 64]

I guess simply put, the reason people are so against comparison threads like this is because everyone already knows the Jaguar 2 was supposed to be a "blow your socks off machine!" - I mean, even Sam Tramiel said it himself. Personally, I've never heard of an N64 blowing the socks off any gamers but would be impressed to hear of such stories.

lol it must be true then.

Life happens and is more important than anything else..it's just a hobby anyway not sure why the hate in this thread.But since your

expecting shit talkers anyway I'll start..Eat Poop VladR <--take that and have a semi great weekend.

[Ready for a homebrew Game Gear game?]

It looks good so far I really like how the Candyville level looks.

Ok the colored circles are life savers,the pink stuff is cotton candy.
