Atlantean: Deep Blue's Sister!

[Nando]

UPDATE:

The game has full collision detection and player deaths.  It's been going through some bug-fix and testing phases.

It's almost radar time.  I hope it's in for CCAG.   I don't know how bad that shit will be.  It might be easy.


Who are we kidding.

It's going to blow.


I might post a 3rd update video, but it won't be much different than what you've been seeing.


Only now you can die! BWHAHAhahaheeueehherhhrhrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

So what is release "schedule" for the final game?

Looking damn great, I honestly can't believe you're using that many sprites to simulate parallax, I thought something on that level would produce some hardcore (read: ugly) sprite clipping, as in R-Type.

Meanwhile I still can't figure out how to display a tile on screen, I have a long way to go hahaha.

There is some clipping, but luckily, the way I set it up, the thing that ends up clipping is the big dopey coral towers, as opposed to stuff you actually care about!

It's something I'll try to fix, but I might just live with it.   It's not too bad.   Usually only happens on the bottom row because of the rooftops.

Looking good. I really need to scrounge up some extra funds and buy other homebrews that are available, and specifically Insanity and Pyramid Plunder

Update:

It'll be radar time by the end of the week. 

and then, another round of testing.

I'm expecting the CCAG demo to be pretty much the full wave progression demo (3 waves, ad nauseum).

Do you guys really want a highscore save feature?   There's currently a high score.  But, it dies if you turn the game off.

Remember, it's a HuCard.  So, you'll only get the save if you have a Duo, basically.

[Necromancer]

f*ck yeah, we want high scores!

[Arkhan]

There are highscores, just, do you gimps want it saved to BRAM?

[Necromancer]

Unless it's really difficult to implement or will make a huge file like Sim Earth, HELL YES! 

[Arkhan]

I'll make it as huge as possible, and also make it delete everything thats already there.

the file name will say "LOLSCOAR"

More importantly, will I be able to export the BRAM to cassette via RCA?

[Arkhan]

yeah.  and then you can load it on a Commodore 64 and play a secret hidden game called Atlantits.

[Nando]

did you add any pixel boobs? do they have Bouncy?
