+cmadruga Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Very early development version for those interested in trying it... no sound, no music, no collisions yet. Controls: - left/right to move the penguin - press button to jump - or to fly ?... this will be eliminated. - 0 to 7 will test different backgrounds... on the finished version those would alternate automatically based on progress. antarctic01162020.rom 21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cmadruga Posted January 19, 2020 Author Share Posted January 19, 2020 Updates: - Antarctica map added - Pesky sea lions! - player won't be able to jump over them. - Flags and jumping fishes - will provide bonus points when collected - Increased obstacle spawning frequency (still fine tuning the spawning logic) 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+the1hatman Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Is it possible to name the penguin Duncan? Seems appropriate, lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmadruga Posted January 20, 2020 Author Share Posted January 20, 2020 The penguin from the original Antarctic Adventure was named "Penta", but I agree that Duncan is the #1 penguin on the Intellivision! Maybe they are cousins, or something? ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+the1hatman Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Well with either name the tradition is upheld so it's all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cmadruga Posted January 24, 2020 Author Share Posted January 24, 2020 antarctic01232020.rom Here is another work in progress rom for anyone interested. Pressing up will accelerate the penguin. Still no collisions or sounds. I will probably get the flag raising sequence completed over the weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artrag Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 (edited) ln the first frame of the outpost (at farthest distance) I would align the roof to the horizon (as in the other frames) and center to the right the building. Maybe a gray line done with sprites could mark the shadows of the snow on the roof in order to outline it with respect to the snow in the background. Great work !!
