atari2600land's Blog - Score!

[RSS Bot]

So last night, I finally put a score in the game. I could make a longer one if I wanted, since the score is basically just showing numbers, like in my Game Gear games. I was so wrapped up in thinking that a score needed to be a variable that I forgot about that option, displaying numbers on the screen like that. So NOW I'll take a break because I don't know what to do in the game next.

Of course I'll put in different levels, which require different colored background colors, but of what, I don't know yet. The Commodore 64 only has 16 avaiable colors, low color counts are a theme I am sensing in these old consoles, the Intellivision only has 16, and the Odyssey 2 has only 8, and the Channel F only has 4!
