melody/harmony games: how can we develop them

[nitrofurano]

i have 2 questions about melody/harmony games:

1- how can we develop them? where from can we find documentation, tutorials, etc?

2- which games were developed for melody/harmony, besides Galaga and Mappy?

thanks in advance!

I can answer the second question for you.  Here's a list of games that are currently being sold in the AtariAge Store that use the Melody:

• Chetiry
• Draconian
• Epic Adventure
• Evil Magician Returns II
• Galagon
• Mappy
• Scramble
• Space Rocks
• Stay Frosty 2
• Super Cobra Arcade
• Tyre Trax
• Wizard of Wor Arcade

Check the Harmony/Melody club.  In the General section read topic Start Here that covers how to set up a development environment - basically you'll create a Linux virtual machine. Then in the CDFJ section read topic Start Here for a tutorial that'll get you started.  I'm slowly making progress on the next entry, Part 9.

 

 

 

 

There's also an older DPC+ tutorial in my blog. The forum upgrade messed up some of the blog stuff, but Dionoid created an index of all the entries to make it easier to go thru them.
