+darryl1970 Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 New_pac_man_cart V2.png I like this retro look. Regardless, don't forget there is an 8K version on its way. I am thinking the 4K is standard, and the 8K will simply add a marketing splash of >>8k<< 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Nathan Strum Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I'm assuming the programmer would probably want to have some input on it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian O Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 I just whipped up those designs for the fun of it (like I always do). Completely up to DINTAR816 whether he wants to use. After all, it's his game 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DINTAR816 Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 Hi all, I added the code for single, double and triple item bonus, it took about 16 bytes, I also saved other bytes more, now are about 37 bytes free, I might add a mesage of "game over", or perhaps another thing. Also going to improve a bit the intermissions (at least the last, changing the color of blinky when he returns). I'll post the rom next week. Now I will continue with the version of 8k. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nukey Shay Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I was a bit confused about that part myself. "Item bonus" s/b "bonus item"? (in reference to post #90) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iesposta Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 "Item bonus" s/b "bonus item"? (in reference to post #90) Thanks for finding it was post #90. Most of what I post is invisible. I an glad to see that suggestion made it in because it was odd that after you finished the Orange fruit board the next one looked identical.

sandmountainslim Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 This game is amazing! Also amazing is the quality of new Pac games for the VCS over the years. First in 82 we had the original Atari Pac Man and just thought that was the best they could do then Ms Pac was released and was so much better. Then came Ebivision Pac Man then A Better PacMan hack then Nukey's Pac Man hacks then Debro Pac Man which I THOUGHT was the pinnacle and now THIS which in my opinion is more like the arcade than all of the rest. Bravo! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andromeda Stardust Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) Somebody please, loan me their Delorean. I need to travel back in time and drop a certain game cart off at a certain programmer's desk.

+darryl1970 Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Or didn't have a two player or settings for kids? I was thinking of the children's "Teddy Bear" myself. Atari eventually did away with two player games though. Ms Pac was only one player. I remember the original bragging point was the multiple variations of game play. I probably only played about 8 of the 122 Space Invaders variants, and that was just to see what they were all about! I always thought the color cycling was in the hardware. Was it something that coders had to use up space to add in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
