My first steps into making Intv GFXs

[Rev]

Even if they never get turned into a game, its interesting to see what an Intv version may of looked like. :-)

I guess Metroid would look awesome on Intellivision

But, I'm clearly not the one who's gonna do it

That looks great! Even if a few graphical sacrifices had to be made, looks fine.

Frankly, If I do this one, it would look about the same

I can always do it, but trust me, these are rather simple GFXs so I don't see how they would look different on Inty

Hey, I'm not spending that much time to not see those pictures into real INtv rom files

 

Well, I admit some are just made for fun but there's few of them that will turn into real games

 

It's inspiring, in the least... perhaps some people will pick up the ball and make a few of these games.

That's exactly what I'm hoping for

 

I also hope to see others making INtv mockups as well

Im going to make a mock up of Pong.....you guys get ready for this.

Why not!

That's a good start to be familiar with

 

I remember making all scenes in pixels graphics for Clockwork Orange back in 1995

I wanted to make a video game out of it

Today, If I was going to make a Clockwork Orange game, I would make a 16 bit Beat em up

[DZ-Jay]

There you have it

I'm sure I could do better, but to be honest, this game doesn't appeal me much

So, I'm done with it

Noooooooo! I lurv this game in the C=64. Make it so, please!

Any updates?

Here's a list of graphics J-L posted so far in this thread:

• Tarzan
• Montezuma’s Revenge
• Cabbage Patch Kids
• BC Quest for Tires
• Karateka
• Ghost ‘n Goblins
• Head2Head Racing
• Knockout
• Antarctic Adventure
• Jungle Hunt
• Pirate Pete
• Cashman (Bagman)
• Inty (Time) Pilot
• Inty Sprint
• Elevator Action
• Cosmic Raider (Avenger)
• Chopper Command

I know J-L said some were just for fun, but that means the others may be games soon - any of which would be awesome!

Metroid FTW! That was my first NES game and still one of my favorites.

You want me to make more?

 

BTW: it's J-F

Sorry Jean-Francois, I knew that... Don't know how I typed it in wrong - was just too excited about the list of potential games!

[Rev]

I think Cabbage Patch Kids will end up being Garbage Pail Kids.....

No worries

 

 

What you guys want to see next?

[pimpmaul69]

Super mario.. I suppose i could do it myself but hey if you are feeling up to it. I could send you an nes mario bitmap full of mario stuff that i made pixel to pixel identical to the nes version if you want it to play around with it to take on the task of making an inty screenshot.

just farting around here with my limited knowledge (need to read up on all the info groovybee sent me) but i think super mario could be very doable. i have to make corrections to the blocks if it was even going to ever be done. i just slapped this together.

Looks great man!

Looks great man!

this is done using the standard inty palette. I dont know how to mix colors and im sure i need something better than ms paint. I only have used photoshop very little. Im a pixel artist. Everything i have done has been done 1 pixel at a time. You would be amazed at what i can "photoshop" 1 pixel at a time. All the other games i have done pixel art in have always had 256 or 16.7 million (or whatever it is) color palettes so i have never been restricted by the colors. So i need a better understanding of that. If i go back and read my pm from groovybee i got a while back i believe he tells me all about it.

Looks good but you are wasting a couple of MOBs on the pipe ends because you have 3 colours per 8x8 cell and only a foreground and background colour are allowed by the hardware. You'd have to let the background show through (like in the bottom image). Then you could use those MOBs to add extra colours to the player or baddies.

if you could post 2 intricate character mobs that go together it might help me to understand that whole part. not totally sure i understand the pipe issue. The top is an 8x8 with green and a black border on 3 sides x2 (flipped) and the bottom is 7x8 with green and a black stripe on one side x2 (flipped). Im not totally sure where the limitation is. Sorry to ask im just trying to learn how to get it right. I feel i can artistically achieve this as i have years of experience doing pixel art. I just need to understand the limitations a little better.

 

Exit: i think you might be saying i am wasting mobs needed for the good stuff but i am not understanding the 3 color issue. If it is the bottom part i have no problems making the pipe straight down from top to bottom. is this better or should i completely ditch the second color altogether?
