[My 7800 Vertical Shooter - Heofonfīr]

Here's the latest build. As said before, you guys are free to look into the code in-depth to find anything I did wrong.

[memcpy question]

Wow, you got to team up with legendary programmers? I have to say that you chose wisely to hire them.

[Question about Maria and custom cartridge chips?]

Those look amazing! However, finding practical uses for those effects, would be a real challenge.

[memcpy question]

I think I could learn something about programming levels from you, Fulton.

[Simple Plasma Demo]

Reminds me of Earthbound.

[Lynx Prototypes Found: Rolling Thunder, GeoDuel, Vindicators, MORE]

Loopz and Eye of the Beholder have excellent music, and Geoduel was impressive despite being cancelled.

[Jeremy Parish's Atari Lynx coverage on Game Boy Works Gaiden]

I never found Parish to be funny at all.

[CPUWIZ in hospital]

I hope you recover from this.

[RAPTOR API 2.0.00]

Cyrano, have you considered going a series of tutorials on using Raptor API? Starting from Hello World, to sprite movement, to sprite scaling/rotation, to additive/subtractive transparencies.

[Arkanoid [WIP]]

Trakball + Arkanoid = slick!

Parts of my current build:

    characterset vertical_shooting_font

    alphachars ASCII

I decided to switch from atascii from a font I made just so it can display properly.

[Handy Music waveforms]

Karri, have you considered doing a series of video tutorials on using chipper?

[Lynx Prototypes Found: Rolling Thunder, GeoDuel, Vindicators, MORE]

Maybe we could talk to those working on them to finish what they started? Then again, that would be a huge could.

[Spire of the Ancients (WIP)]

This is sounding ambitious, and further looking forward to.

[My 7800 Vertical Shooter - Heofonfīr]

The good news with this new release: Explosion animation is a go.

The bad news is getting it to function right and figure out what is causing it to crash.

[Lynx Prototypes Found: Rolling Thunder, GeoDuel, Vindicators, MORE]

I look forward to video footage of at least GeoDuel, Cabal, Rolling Thunder, and Vindicators.

[E.X.O. [WIP]]

You did a good job at the demo cutscene at the end, Muddy. By the way, interesting room names. Were you inspired by L'Abbaye des Morts?

[My 7800 Vertical Shooter - Heofonfīr]

Hmm...that's odd. It compiled and run successfully, but upon running it in regular A7800, it doesn't. I've included the latest source file in this .zip file, so if you want to take a look at what's causing that bug, you're free to do so.

Update: I ran it on the outdated and inaccurate ProSystem emulator, and it works, but with graphical glitches.

[Morf [WIP]]

The latest screenshot looks really good, Lavalamp.

[My 7800 Vertical Shooter - Heofonfīr]

Confirmed: Collision detection with the enemy now works.

[Atari 7800 Homebrew: Into The Void / Number Crusher]

That's a pretty slick demo, Fulton.

[Atari 7800 Homebrew: Into The Void / Number Crusher]

You, sir, have done a better job programming the credits in your game than what I have done with mine.

[Knight Guy in Low Res World: Castle Days]

VHZC, you get points for originality. (I am not being sarcastic.)

[Trying to bankswitch ... having troubles]

So, for example, Bank 1 can be level 1, Bank 2 can be level 2, etc.?
