Games with "Flimbo's type" Parallax scrolling

[emkay]

Well remember that one month included learning how to do a 3D game in C64 char graphics to a scale nobody even did previously, Commando was his previous game which had nothing to re-use code wise, nor did any of his older games like Z.

 

If you know coding, you know how less expense is needed to create a game on the C64, because the hardware offers easy usage of the Sprites and the character movement. The "3D" is very coarse when using the charmode resolution aswell, which is still 40x25.

 

Maybe it is a question of the pespective of view.

For me someone is more talented who is able to draw a landscape per hand, than to push a trigger on the camera.

 

 

So with respect Chris Butler is a genius coder not just a professional coder, maybe some fan boy would try and water it down but then unlike such idiots I can appreciate genius coding on ANY machine because I take an adult impartial view to each machine after intelligently researching their limitations.

 

Good point

 

The point was yes anyone can program something, some can eventually learn advanced programming given years, but few people just know how to write amazing code in a matter of months. And some people don't have years to devote to it.

 

And many people think they were big because they stand on the shoulders of giants

This is one piece of great intelligent research of limitations and adopting....

Not entirely true. Maybe you should visit FormatWar more often :-

Should have written "smooth" scrolling

I'm seriously having to rethink my stance of 'the CPC was a pile of crap' after seeing that...
