WizardBone Posted July 22, 2017 Author Share Posted July 22, 2017 I downloaded the "TRASH_Game_2017.bas.bin 8KB" June 30th .bin (on the first post of this thread) on my AFP. Perfect. Glad that is the one you were trying. I been wondering how the original file played with the stick on hardware. People were having issues with the controls on the keyboard.

WizardBone Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 It has been raining for a couple days. So I been working on the game a bit. You can now walk into buildings, and a couple alley ways. Also been working on the first boss!Sorry no playable update yet, thought I'd mention it for anyone that has been following. Better something done than nothing (as planned for the summer, lol) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly sure what I will call the next version. Maybe up to the boss? or maybe more. Gonna try and steal some time again the weekend. I been feeling the pull to work on it lately.

WizardBone Posted September 4, 2017 Author Share Posted September 4, 2017 (edited) I need a name to release games under, that is not WizardBone. Can we change user names here? WizardBone was suppose to be wizardbones, with an S lolll for starters, my bad. But yeah, still would rather a better user name if it's to be associated with my games.

WizardBone Posted September 5, 2017 Author Share Posted September 5, 2017 (edited) Aaaaaah!!! Enough trash talk, we've bin waiting too long for more updates!!! hahah that one made me laugh! I love the puns you guys make about/with trash. The bin was funny too I'm trying my best to get it done for yall! I got a few updates done actually. As much as I'd love to share, it all isn't really tied together proper yet because It's like little parts for different things here and there, to release as is, would be an odd thing to play loll. I'm glad there a few of you still watching! I know I'm not making a typical atari type game, but it's still fun to try and achieve a game I would be interested in! I do know for sure it will be 16k, no more, because of my sprite, playfeild and items. I got the last bank pretty close to the wire past week, so I wouldn't be able to get much more than I have now, so now I'm mainly just trying to bring it all together, there's lots I couldn't fit, and lots I managed to fit. Crosses fingers I can work it out all decent. Edited September 5, 2017 by WizardBone 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I made it a habit to check myself now lol Hahaha you are now a cheerleader in my eyes BUT GOOD, I think we all need a lil push and few words sometimes.

MrBeefy Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 This is easily in the top two games I am most interested to see developed. I could see a game like this done on the 7800 but it continually amazes me to see what the 2600 can be pushed to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny you say that, I had a convo with Jinroh a few weeks ago and I mentioned something like, it'd be cool to let t.r.a.s.h. evolve on other systems. Of course that's a time consuming dream lllolll as this is the first game I've programmed. But yeah I'm pretty sure after I get this one done for the 2600, i'll bump it to another system. But 2600 was the first system my dad ever bought for me lol, starting here has been fun. Edited September 10, 2017 by WizardBone 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WizardBone Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 I been doing too much talking lol I'm gonna try my best to get an update by the weekend. Mostly an update on the level. Might not be the best update, but something more to look at. The level/city is probably twice it's size now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VCS -> A8/NES -> Atari ST/Lynx/Genesis something like that. At very least if you stick to 6502 based systems you don't have to re-invent the WHOLE wheel. ;3 Edited September 13, 2017 by Jinroh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure i'll figure it out if I get a strong enough desire after this one I'm pretty sure I'll release an update for 2600 sometime the weekend; if free time continues to allow me. A near complete update I'm thinking, there isn't much left I can do. The game will be pretty short, which for me is the biggest down fall. But i'm ok with that as a first game. After that, I guess I need to work on the evil flickering lol Downfall #2 EDIT: if you wanna call it a flicker. I find it to be more jittery, it's not rolling either. It reminds me of when you put the drawscreen in an awkward place, everything looks like it's jumping or running cycles weirdly. I GET A FEELING that is the issue, because I am using two sprites sets (two drawscreens) so I might have stuck that command in awkwardly... you'd think I should know but I been building and not really looking back over the script for bugs YET *brain rambles* Edited September 14, 2017 by WizardBone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not really that random I guess considering we all know where that game ended up Edit: Too bad ET couldn't be the last boss, king of garbage hehe oh I love that lil guy, poor thing. I never thought about the mere relation before, now I wanna hide him in a wall somewhere among the trash as an easter egg to find ;p Pretty sure that's illegal though lolll Edited September 17, 2017 by WizardBone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanJr Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Got some time to play tonight. Really enjoying the progress. Some notes: TV Guy instant kill is still a fun killer. Almost all of my deaths come from the sudden appearance of the TV guy and it's just instant GAME OVER. The game then becomes how long can you go until you get the instant kill screen. The hit box on the trash pick-ups is too small and finicky. Can you enlarge it. I've been right on top of trash bags and cans and unable to pick up the garbage. A couple of times I've seen two eyeball monsters on the same screen, one yellow one green. The green one seems inactive and disappears when you kill the yellow one. Is this a bug? Fairly often the generated enemy will die immediately upon my entering the screen, without my doing anything. Sometimes when the enemy is killed the trash can sprite appears briefly and then disappears. Are you still planning to allow the player to enter the buildings and search for trash? This would add some depth to the game play. You had hinted at surprises in the buildings, either power-ups, bosses, or high point value trash. I think that would take the game to the next level. Thanks for letting us play! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can! hmm I get a feeling you downloaded the old bin? You can enter buildings and such in the new bin. the new one is called TRASH_Update 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
