Happy Holidays from Opcode Games!

Recommended Posts

Hello retro-gaming populace!

 

T'is the season to be jolly, and I'm doing my part today with a long-overdue new blog entry on opcodegames.com! Read it and you will discover what's in store for Opcode Games in 2009!

 

Now I hate to have to use this opportunity to bring up bad news, but it's important that all of you be aware of this: Because of unfortunate circumstances, Pac-Man Collection will not be made available before mid-February 2009. I'm not at liberty to discuss the details right now, but I can say that this happened because of a stupid snow storm that came along at just the wrong time. I'm really sorry about this, and I do extend my apologies to everyone here who have expressed their interest in this highly-anticipated Opcode title, but there's simply nothing I can do on my end, and it's going to take a while before I can explain what happened.

 

Still, Eduardo and I wish you all some very memorable Holidays! :)

Hi Pixelboy... :)

 

I understand about PMC.

 

I read your lastest blog from december, and i read about the project "Burn Rubber".

 

In 2 player mode are there only one screen possible.

 

If one car are far from the other one, how can you play/see the other one, if he are out of the screen.

You can only see some cars on the screen, but not if the one is far behind you, or... :roll:

The 2-player battle mode is quite simple really: If one of the players falls too far behind (or in other words, if he touches the edge of the screen), the race stops for a moment and the other player gains 1 point. Both racers are then reset in the center of the track and the race continues. The player who cumulates enough points wins. With this system, there's no need for split-screen action. :)

Happy Holidays to Opcode games as well!

 

Instead of a late X-Mas present I'll just have to make PMC my early birthday present :). I hope all the kinks get worked out soon. Best of luck!
