Adventures of the 50-foot-tall Stalk of Celery (2600)

[+atari2600land]

Not to be confused with the Odyssey 2 game also starring the tall celery stalk, this 2600/VCS game is a platformer. The basics for level 1, "Broken Bridge", are there. I need to add some music for the title screen and in game. I hope to have this game be at least 32k. So with 4k per level, that would mean 8 levels. Level 2 will be an underwater level, but I'll start on it once I'm done with level 1. Anyway, let me know what you think of the game so far. Left/right used to move the celery left and right, and up is for jumping. You can go backwards, although I don't know why you would want to. At almost the end of the level, you can go back to the beginning of it and do it again. Once level 1 ends, you'll go back to the title screen in this version, though. I tested this game on Harmony and it works.

I think your game is off to a good start! Something about the super tall skinny main character is unique and interesting. Level 1 is pretty boring right now though, and the unique dimensions of the character don't really have much to do with the game at this point.

 

keep going!
