Mclaneinc Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 3 hours ago, Tezz said: Boulder Dash II was one of mine again, that was back in 2009. Whilst I was enjoying creating the loaders for the XBIOS examples in 2013 I did one for BDII also. I wanted to have a raster effect during disk IO, something that I was told was impossible back in the 80's It's a shame that loading sequences and pictures are redundent now with modern high speed solutions. Arkanoid was my conversion of the c64 loading picture done in the early days of G2F which is in the archive, someone added it to the executable many years ago which I wasn't aware of until recently. I did redraw an Arkanoid title based more on the arcade, I should have that backed up somewhere. xbios_bdii.atr 90.02 kB · 4 downloads That dli colour bar is just so damn nice and as an active loader as well.... ..Tis Majik (said in best Catweasel voice) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atapol: Was looking for file to test out, came across https://archive.org/details/a8b_Kariera_Hammurabi_1987_Atapol_pl_BASIC which has a torrent, but only some of the files download. If you happen to know where I can grab a copy, let me know. Wladca: Great pic! Astilox: Great spooky intro pic, and it will be fun to unlock the in-game pics, which are awesome, thanks!

invisible kid Posted July 27, 2021 Author Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) Oops! Thanks DjayBee, you are quite right! Edited to add: Now that I think about it, some churches are very castle-like right? In NYC, an old church was used for various night clubs(The Limelight), it was very castle-like in architecture.

invisible kid Posted July 27, 2021 Author Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) To clarify, I more meant castle-like for the purpose of the thread. Any thing spooky, castle, haunted house. So everyone is right, it was a church, but still fits for the spirit of the thread.
