That looks awesome! The music is great too

I really want to write music for the XM's Pokey and YM2151 FM synths, anybody crazy enough to make a tracker or something that some of us not so great programmers can write some compatible music in? I've got plenty of experience with both sound chips as far as understanding how they work. I'm good at creating instruments and sound fx with both, and writing music with certain trackers that support them. I can also provide a translated manual for the YM2151 for anyone interested here: http://www.gorenfeld.net/lou/VOPM.pdf

Hey Swainy! Long time, I love this version of DD! It plays crappy, but after you learn to do the reverse jump kick timing you can use it to pwn all the way through the whole game. I just love the pixelated graphics man! What are you up too anyway? Still trying to get those graphics in a completed remake? What a shame man they've been going to waste all this time

I tried 2 of the versions and all I get is a little dude to control, I've played with all the switches and that's pretty much it... ? Am I missing something?

Eugene Jarvis himself said that there was a bug in the AI for them that he left in the code, and that's what created their cool behavior. Hard to reverse engineer something like that

That's awesome, If I had money to throw around I'd buy one. Warlords is the best multiplayer game ever

It's also because CRT's have color bleeding between pixels, lcd's don't. So you get sorta smoothed or natural antialias sort of picture instead. LCD's don't bleed so you get a sharper picture. I gotta say, I do miss CRT's. LCD screens bug my eyeballs.

Quite interesting way of doing it, but I wonder if it would introduce trouble with showing sprites visibility order for the z-plane doing it this way? Just a quick thought.

For me, Homebrew... I'm fascinated by how these guys are pushing the limits on these old machines limitations like never before. So that's higher value to me personally.

Hey man, I like your trashmania remakes btw.

We're now blood brothers, Congratulations to us.

I listen to a lot of 90's and 80's crap. Soundgarden, Garbage, Porno for Pyros, The Doves, Oasis, Veruca Salt..etc

That's cool! right on man, thanks for posting it.

Damn that's nice!

Nice

Looks cool!

I made an Arkanoid screensaver a few years ago called Breakanoid. Aren't we original

I'll help if I can. I'm mainly a sound, music n & gfx person, but a jerk of all trades. I've made a few games and remakes in the past

And it's a great idea, never let anyone talk you out of it. It could be super awesome.. Matter of fact it sounds like a good Sourceforge project. You know others would get on board.

man I'd love to pokeyize the music, or use the 2151 on the expansion mod

For one, include emulation of all the cool sound chips. SID, Pokey, TIA, ym2151, SPC. There's already source code library's for these out there. Also, presets for the correct resolutions/color palettes for different systems. Just a thought

I like it. Shootin' seaweed is quite fun.

Nice work!

I'll second Vanguard.

Yeah, you can make some killer sounds with it. The only weak point I've had with the 2151 is Drums. It's hard not to make hollow sounding toms and weak kick drums. It's freakin awesome for metallic sounds.
