AgentOrange96 Posted July 5, 2017 Author Share Posted July 5, 2017 Were you guys planning on fleshing this out with more gameplay elements? I was not. I'd like to make the kids look better, but I'm unsure of how to do that without flickering. But as far as game play, that's pretty much all I had planned for it. RIP those fire buttons!

DirtyHairy Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 (edited) A monster truck jumping over a line of children? That's seriously sick, dude. Goes right there next to Custer's Revenge on my personal disgust-o-meter. Sometimes I wonder what is wrong with people...

Not gonna lie, that was the first game I immediately put on my Harmony as soon as I got it... It's not something I'm proud of... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swami Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Maybe you should add "devil worshiping children" or "psychopathic chain-saw wielding children" to make the title less disturbing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So is this! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyChris Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Why not clowns or barrels? Score by how many you jump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andromeda Stardust Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Why not clowns or barrels? Score by how many you jump. Barrels are cool. You could use one of those flicker kernels to excited the sprite count so it looks like a lot of objects. Or stick figures... Here's an idea. Two kids per sprite. Using P0 and P1 sprites triplicated simultaneously for up to 12 children displayed onscreen simultaneously without flicker. 24 children with flicker. children.bmp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swami Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Why not clowns or barrels? Score by how many you jump. How about children wearing barrels, because they are poor homeless orphans, like in the cartoons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I might have had more limits with the timer bars, but I forget. Either way, I don't want to truck to flicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoring by how many kids you jump is a planned feature whenever I get around to re-making the PC version. Although, I'm using the score actually to give the directions in the Atari version with a custom score font, since I didn't put in a real score system.

JeremiahK Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 No way! Wisdom Tree is still around? I used to play Exodus and Bible Adventure on DOS. Pretty good games, I had a lot of fun playing them. Except that they came with a 10x10 password sheet that you needed in order to play the game, otherwise you could only play the demo, and we lost the sheet for Bible Adventure. I guess they wanted parents to have the ability to have a lock on the games so their kids didn't get addicted to video games. You can play DOS Exodus on archive.com here, and they might have the other games, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andromeda Stardust Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Piko currently owns the license to exclusively manufacture Wisdom Tree repros. But I hate using the term "repro" becuse that implies copyright infrindement,which is definitely NOT the case here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
