TROGBlog

Looks pretty cool, will check it out tonight.

 

In Medieval Mayhem the scanline would show 262.

Z26 is very realiable on such things, so I'd better fix the display.

 

Where have you been so long, I had already unpinned your blog?

Glad to have you back and coding again! Your games all hold a lot of promise, and I hope you can complete them.

So do you file "Master of Arcturus" just as a learning experience? I always liked that

Yay more TROGGames. How about starting a Cthulhu 2600 game?

 

Actually, yes you need to finish a game. They are good stuff. The way you are going, you might finish them all at the same time and cause a glut!

It's like an artist looking at a painting they did in high-school, and knowing all the things they could have done better.

Or even looking at something I finished a week ago, knowing all the things I could've done better.

Yes, the trick is to declare something finished at one point, else you will never finish anything.

 

Though, who am I to tell (Thrust, Thrust DC+, Thrust Platinum...).

I'm surprised that Z26 would be more accurate, although I've heard it's often used as the gold standard of 2600 emulation. Given that development of Stella is still on-going, and that the emu is so mature, I would have expected Stella to be at least as reliable as Z26.

I think most of the on-going development in Stella over the past couple of years has been (G)UI stuff. There are several TIA/RIOT issues that have been known for a while now.

 

EDIT: Oh, and: I'm also very glad to see you back. I also wish you would finish/release MoA, I love that game. I've also spent probably hours playing your Hunt The Wumpus almost-game; it's just a lot of fun.
