+SpiceWare Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Yep, you can shift and resize the ball (and the missiles) to create other "sprites". I cover that in my presentation, using Hunchy II as an example as all of the bells you have to collect were drawn using Missile 0. Tip: If you download the presentation in Keynote or Powerpoint format you can access my presenter notes. They can even be used as moving "sprites", Dark Cavern uses that to great effect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+SpiceWare Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 You can shift the objects left/right on every scanline, it's how I drew the dragon in Medieval Mayhem. This early build shows it off with the red and yellow players in the middle http://atariage.com/forums/blog/148/entry-1462-dragon-drawing-routines/ Yes Donkey Kong would be using an asymmetrical playfield.
