youki Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I'm impressed by the smooth movement when you rotate the items ? How you did that? you jungle between sprites and characters? when you rotate the items are sprites and the white selection is characters? in other cases it is the opposite ? Very nice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it all sprites when rotating since it's within the 4 sprites on a line limit. He probably made the selection sprites like, So the group of sprite don't shear when they are rotating in the middle. I like the smooth movement too. Also I like the overall presentation of this game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When looking at the Atari Jaguar game, we can see someone who was color blind could still use it. That's not true of your game. I don't imagine color blindness is much of a concern, but it will be easier for everyone to play if you use that as a benchmark. In other words, it's more comfortable to visually separate objects with different colors and shapes than colors alone. This correction seems easy to implement.

1980gamer Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Wow, I love this! I want to do this on the TI99 now. I am super impressed with the smooth animation also. I don't think I could do that on the TI. I would have to define a ton of characters patterns. Even If I did, it would be SLOW. Any chance you could provide the different screens? I am going to use different graphics as I have a themed puzzle game going already. I am guessing you load the screens into an array and compare source array to player array. I think I could do several screens this way before space becomes a problem. I might do a random version? If I cannot get the source layouts. AH! I don't need a ton of patterns... I just need to move the 4 sprites at the same time! Duh. LOL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric M Posted January 1, 2023 Author Share Posted January 1, 2023 Hi 1980Gamer Well, I use charsets pattern AND sprites pattern How it works ? When I rotate a 2x2 fruits/veges block - I copy the correct fruits/veges in sprite pattern (4) according to the player's cursor position - I display those 2x2 sprites block - I clear the screen 'under' those sprites - make the complete rotation until it stop - then I copy the fruits/veges at the new position using their charset pattern - and clean sprites it's how everything is smooth in DTS, the fruits/veges are in 2 or 3 colors but the sprites are only in one color so you have to choose the good colors for each fruits/veges each stages are composed of 72 bytes (36 for the left pictures and 36 for the shuffled right picture) and I have 16+32+64 = 112 stages, 8512bytes ... > originals stages are coming from Atari Jaguar version done by Matmook. thanks I would love to make something on ti99 but I think there is no SDCC for it and I don't want to learn asm language (I have no more space in my old memory system full of z80, 68k, ppc, 80's music, souvenirs, etc... lol) see you veges = vegetables 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1980gamer Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 1 hour ago, Eric M said: When I rotate a 2x2 fruits/veges block That is exactly how I pictured it. I do a similar (smaller) method for a KICKS like game to get more than 4 sprites on a row. For the TI all sprites are 1 color, so I am not worried about that. Unless I layer them.

1980gamer Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 So I made this for the TI99 but only made a few levels. I just looked for the source code but could not find the level data source files. If you could send me the link or file name either here or PM. That would be great. A fun little program to make. I love puzzle games. I need to add the touches.. timer etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
