www.atarimania.com Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 I just hope Crownland lives up to expectations in terms of gameplay, replay value and that's it's more than just three or four levels you finish in 20 minutes... -- Atari Frog http://www.atarimania.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
analmux Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 @ Abbuc people: so, for clarity, when will the stuff be available for download for most of us humble people that don't get ABBUC mag. and thus no floppy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE abbuc won't provide the contest downloads. But after the contest (27th of october) the authors can do (@Mathy:) with their programs what they want. Maybe the authors will give you their programs!? Edited September 14, 2007 by Bunsen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 and as abbuc member...when do we get the stuff? do we vote at the jhv? or will wolfgang ship many discs with the entries to the members with the next paper mag? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathy Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Hello Heaven and as abbuc member...when do we get the stuff? I'm a member too. I guess we'll get it with the next paper magazine. do we vote at the jhv? Yes, but the next paper magazin will probably contain a voting sheet, so you can send in you votes before the JHV. Which will be held at the 27th of October. The votes will be counted at the JHV. (For those who read this and ask themselves what JHV means: It's the yearly meeting of the members of the ABBUC) or will wolfgang ship many discs with the entries to the members with the next paper mag? I guess so. They usually come with a paper magazin. I'm not sure if it will be the regular or the special magazin. I expect to find them on my doormat before the end of this month. But that's just an estimate. Greetings Mathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunsen Posted September 14, 2007 Author Share Posted September 14, 2007 I confirm Mathy in all points. Beetle posted the details already in this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a opportunity for non-members to get the programs of the contest NOW. There is a so called sneak-membership. It costs 7,80 EUR and includes the paper mag and the disk mag with the programs including shipping. The sneak-membership lasts three months but you have to cancel six weeks before ending (or better: keep staying in the ABBUC ) Sorry for advertising here in the forum. But we are not commercial, only a club of atari-loving people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathy Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Hello guys (and girls) You can find all about the trial-membership at http://www.abbuc.de/modules.php?name=DocTr...=y&dtId=218 In German as well as in English. But you can also contact Wolfgang via wolfgang xxx abbuc xxx de. I guess I don't have to tell you what to do with the "xxx".

Beetle Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 (edited) My Abbuc Magazine arrived today. It comes with 2 disks this time, full of software Don't start to play "Yoomp!". That game is so addictive, you won't try anything else , hehe. Great music, fits the game perfect. Very good control of tha ball, so if you loose it, you never feel like its been the fault of the game. The levels get harder slowly, the game will keep you busy some time. I got up to level 9 in the meantime. I love it! PS: I'd appreciate a version that saves Hiscores to disk...

Beetle Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 I suck totally at "Eckn". I can't do such puzzle games very good. What i like about is that little face. Its animated, looks at your gameplay and talks to you if you do something wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 beetle...no comments until voting... Yes... Eru did nice job... but Crownland is good as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emkay Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 beetle...no comments until voting... Yes... Eru did nice job... but Crownland is good as well... Yoomp tops both of them. By code, game speed and by playing fun. The tube really seems to be 3D calculated (at least looks like this) and what you see in the screenshots is smoothly fast rolling action on the real thing. It's no tricky DL or dli changes with "per line depth effect" changes or blocky character movement in the tube ... ! But DL - changes are added to give some nice screen FX. You can see that crownland uses 32 bytes width only (the demo used 40 bytes width) and I don't know why. Because it doesn't use midline changes ("sprites" flicker when more than 2 on one scanline) and the DLIs seem to be used by standard, beause no vertical movement of the screen is used. Well, the game is highly (if not the best jump and run for now) achieved peace of software, but it seems, the coder has run out of time .

Heaven/TQA Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 MK, agreed.... Crownland seems to got finished for the deadline. with some additional weeks i guess it could be made more "perfect" but it's really fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEtalGuy66 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 could someone send me a .ATR of that ABBUC disk? I joined ABBUC about 3 years ago, but never paid them any money. They sent me free disks and magazines for about 2 years, and then I guess they finally got pissed off and quit sending them. I never could understand that Wolfgang dude's emails because I dont speak German, but I guess he was pissed off.. Anywayze. Somebody send me the disk. heheh..

The rules of ABBUC say, when one doesn't pay the monthly fee, he will not get a copy of the ABBUC Magazin. I hope, people take care about this and leave you alone with your faulty manner. Pay the monthy fee and you get the stuff. It's an easy thing. Edited October 21, 2007 by emkay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miker Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 @Emkay & Heaven: So maybe quit discussing the entries here unless they are available to the rest of audition! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
