Nukey Shay #2 Posted September 14, 2008 http://www.kittencannon.us Would one of these distance type games be possible in BB? Yes. Replayability is kinda low, tho (* see Human Cannonball"). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CurtisP #4 Posted September 18, 2008 It could be done. Side scrolling isn't real smooth on the 2600. Not sue bBasic would be the way to do it either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nukey Shay #5 Posted September 18, 2008 Only target objects really need to scroll, it doesn't need playfield scrolling at all. Because the "kitten" sprite doesn't necessarily need to occupy the same scanlines as targets (except maybe when colliding...which could use dedicated bitmaps for that)...you have 2 smoothly-scrolling 8-bit sprites to use. Make that 4 if you use 30hz flicker. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
