Bob's Blog - So many ideas...

[RSS Bot]

WHEN I SHOULD HAVE been working on my Elevators/Maids game during the past week, I was instead working on this:

RType20070329.bin

 

I was inspired partially by Manuel's post about the NES' lack of R-Type clones and partially by the idea of writing one for the 2K minigame competition.

 

I started with my Metroid code, since it conveniently had an asymmetrical playfield plus intelliflickered sprites.

 

I've pared it down from 32K to about 3K (and halfway given up on a 2K minigame) and instituted randomly generated terrain. It works pretty well.

 

Thoughts?
