yuppicide Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 (edited) I was reading this from 2003 on Andrew Davie and Interleaved ChronoColour. http://www.atariage.com/features/Stan2003/achievement.html Did any games actually use such a beast? I'm a lowly bAtari Basic programmer, but that looks freakin nice. Would be nice to use just as an intro screen or something (obviously not with a nekkid lady tho).

There are very similar atributes to IC in the 2600 version of boulderdash which Andrew also created. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Yup, the graphics of BD are heavily relying on interleaving colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 It sounds similar to the Colrview method on the A8. Has anyone tried something similar to APAC? Alternate scanlines with colour info on odd lines (use registers with luma value 0 or 2), and luma info on the even lines ? Although, I guess you'd be fairly limited in picture size and how many combinations you could generate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+grafixbmp Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 I acually had been (on and off) working on a rather crude game that would use a form of the IC tech in a rather unique way for a unique game that I would hope would be one of the first games to actualy try to put a player on the edge of there seat. A dark, suspense thriller game. I would like to write up a discription sometime down the road and post it. with some hand-drawn artwork as well. I guess I will post one of the images and let you guys guess for a while. On a side note, the image does not reflect any game screens but an overall view of the world of the game.
