Over the weekend I read the article about Hobgoblin in Kieran Hawken's small ebook A-Z of Atari 8-Bit Games and thought that I might give it a try. What a coincidence.

Mathy Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Hello DjayBee 3 hours ago, DjayBee said: Hmmm, what might that be? ? Aha, that's what disappeared so fast. When I start H2 in Atari800MacX 5.2.1 ("Limit to normal speed") there's just enough time to see that something was printed to the screen before it disappears. Now that I know what it should read, I see that is says Hobgoblin 2. Sincerely Mathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snicklin Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Those are fast software sprites. Are you using a bitmap or a char mode? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxl Posted August 19, 2020 Author Share Posted August 19, 2020 character mode but with a fixed screen memory, so you make any changes to the character set. therefore I have no limitations of 128 characters in the set and can still enjoy some of the advantages of text mode and some detailed graphical operations can be done faster. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beeblebrox Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Just been watching the Zeropage Homebrew Halloween stream. Hobgoblin 2 seemed to have escaped my attention and after seeing it being played I found my way to this thread. Downloaded and played a bit of the demo. Great work. I wonder if this game is likely to be finished and released? The demo is much more playable IMHO than the original Hobgobin on many levels. Very fast paced. Love it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
