sometimes99er Posted December 25, 2017 Author Share Posted December 25, 2017 Excellent addition to the growing list of 8K games you've written, @sometimes99er. A lot of people forget that these games are perfect for the console-only crowd as well. Just pop a cartridge with the ROM in it into the cartridge slot and game on! And thank you.

sometimes99er Posted December 25, 2017 Author Share Posted December 25, 2017 (edited) Super game, but I cannot get my joystick to work with it. Does it require joystick 2? If so, I'll have to get into the closet and drag out the splitter and the Wico. Thank you. Well, I'm not even sure which joystick it works for. Back in the day, I had an Atari-type adapter, and I don't know from where I picked up usually using only one of the ports. Maybe it was indeed Joystick #2. In the CRU it's column 7. But it looks like Joystick #1 in Classic99: Options, Options... And I think it may also be Joystick #1 in MAME: Hope it works out for you.

ti99iuc Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 And thank you - for your feedback. Oh, well, games kind of have things moving around, - but I'll make a special version for you. ... - I guess different on screen effects can have different effects on people. Sure it's only the stars that make you dizzy? Seriously though, what about all of the scrolling games? yes, i am sure that probably i have somepersonal head problem of course... i'm dizzy also with virtual reality for example, lot of other people not. I haven't problems instead with scrilling games generally. I only had the same problem with SkyShark from Rasmus but not for the standard scrolling in the game but with the move of the sea waves in one of the earlier work in progress versions, now solved. I really don't know why it happens to me, maybe i will do some medical exams . Hope this is better for you. A special edition for your eyes only. rest.ciro.c.bin Really appreciated this is the first time that someone personalyze a game dedicated just for me only :D I does not exclude, however, that this modified version may also remain useful for someone that will have the same dizzy problem like me in future and i am sure he will appreciate it like me today with this new version i already exceeded my personal record without dizziness Thanks Sometimes99er 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Hope it works out for you. Well I've been sick the past few days so I've not dug out the Y adapter and Wico yet. I only play on Real Iron, so normally if a game does not work with joystick one, it does not get played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sometimes99er Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 That's a very nice score. Now try and get past level 9, and you're done. After that you can try and better your score. Unlike Astro-Panic (C64) you get higher scores for hitting aliens that are high up the screen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sometimes99er Posted January 9, 2018 Author Share Posted January 9, 2018 While playing the game for about half an hour, ... And thank you. However, I propose following: Please use more and/or different colors for the objects, especially for the aliens, because that is something what I am missing in your game. Here's a version with colored aliens. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because a lack of levels, it is very easy to end the Restless II game and to make a high-score. It's frustrating. However, I think that not much is missing to make a longer game and a greatest game. For example, by adding a second level where monsters have to be hit two times to die then three times on a next level. The monsters could also get the transparent color during a split second to be invincible... In fact, reproducing the game play of Parsec. Please! Could you work on it? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An easy to pickup, sweet and short shoot-em-up. Something that is quickly over, and something where you may want to try and beat your own high score. I think most people find the game rather hard (opposed to easy). I often die before getting the trophy. But again "practice makes master".

That's certainly ideas that shouldn't take much to implement, and even keeping it within the 8K barrier. On 12/9/2020 at 12:26 AM, fabrice montupet said: Please! Could you work on it?

sometimes99er Posted June 12, 2021 Author Share Posted June 12, 2021 Level 1 has 3 aliens, level 2 has 4 aliens and so on. With each level the aliens can move faster. The last level has 11 aliens. You’ll get a trophy if you shoot all 63 aliens. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabrice montupet Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 Thank you very much for the update! ? ? I just was surprised to see all the monsters becoming white as the ship we play with, instead of plenty colors as I was before. That makes the game a little sad. Why havind removed their colors?

fabrice montupet Posted June 12, 2021 Share Posted June 12, 2021 I quickly finished the level 9 and hoped to reach a new stage after having the trophy but.. The game returns to the main screen. No more. So, this new version of the game is finished as quickly as before, no new level, and lost colors, it is frustating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
