tjb Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) I downloaded the avi file but Windows Media Player couldn't play it for some reason. Anyway, the screenshots look great! I think it's great that you'll be releasing the sources at some point. I'm excited. tjb Edited June 25, 2009 by tjb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's DIVX6 codec, so I guess you need to upgrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I was able to watch it with Windows Media Player without incident - but I have the DivX codec installed.... Looks good so far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+remowilliams Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 And let me say that the pics and video do no justice to the incredible smoothness of it running on real hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerosquare Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Congratulations ! It looks very good, and the result is particularly amazing on such a short time period. And the decision to release with source, for free, is very kind of you. I wish you the best of luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STGuy1040 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) It looks nice! I tried to visit the link in your post but the service is not available. Edit: Nevermind, I was finally able to connect to the website. Do you plan on releasing a cartridge version? Please say you will!

im_reg Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) Good work. I know this is very early but for me the enemy bullets were a bit hard to see in some situations. Could just be the quality of my monitor so please don't think I'm picking faults. Edited June 25, 2009 by im_reg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I also thought the 'bullets' were faint and hard to see against the starry background - but it's just a video. I might suggest cycling the intensity of the hue used for the various bullets so that they flicker against the background..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
promethea Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Hi folks and thanks for the kind words, As the original video didn't do it justice, we just released a high quality video (30mb, encoded with x264), please visit our website to grab it!

Pocket Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Really promising, it reminds me the good old ST days, but on steroids And thanks for sharing your work with others for free ! That's really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctorclu Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 This does look really cool!!! I thinks I need to try out this Reboot group a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Just watched the high-res version of the video. This looks like the start of something really great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paolo Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 (edited) If I may nitpick, I would suggest to move the more coloured, galaxy-filled layer on the background and move it slower than the current almost-star-only deep layer, while getting another front-layer with sparse stars moving quicker. Also, I can't imagine what's going on with the collision detection active on the player sprite! I hope we will have some shields I love it. True ST shooter on steroids. did I say I love it?

The_Laird Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Its a real shame nobody from Jagware or Reboot has chosen to come to Jagfest as it would have been really good to have seen your latest work and it would have got you all some excellent publicity in Retro Gamer magazine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kZa- Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Its a real shame nobody from Jagware or Reboot has chosen to come to Jagfest as it would have been really good to have seen your latest work and it would have got you all some excellent publicity in Retro Gamer magazine There are 3 members in Reboot active on jaguar, I'm the only one who lives within 2000 miles of Jagfest & I'm returning from holiday on that Saturday. I did plan on going with the latest Beta (or even a level 1 release, it should be done by then) but then realised the dates clashed. :/ Maybe we'll still have a release for that date, I know someone who is going so maybe we can still send something along with him.
