keithbk Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 We've all been here before...we love Adventure, but we want MORE... So, what is different about this new version of the beloved game of Adventure? Well, thanks to Nukey, quite a bit! 1) Enhanced Graphics, including flippable redesigned dragons 2) A sword that changes directions with you as you move 3) The bat now resurrects dead dragons (better keep tabs on that sword!!!) While this will contain additional rooms, I'm not trying to go overboard with this project, and I'm not planning on complete redesign of all the mazes. I have attached some images and a playable file (this is NOT complete yet-I want to do quite a bit more, but it is completely playable/winnable). Here are some pics, I'd love to get your feedback: anotheradventure.bin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorfy Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Awesome look to the castles and mazes! Didn't have time to play thru level 3 yet, but did check out the dragons' return to life---cool idea. The dragon images look a little disjointed to me, so I would suggest working on those a little more. Overall, a great job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pioneer4x4 Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Isn't it holding the arrow from the wrong end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithbk Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 (edited) Isn't it holding the arrow from the wrong end? The orignal has always been a sword. It's unfortunate it has always appeared to most as an arrow, but the concept is something like this: Original Sprite: X X XXXXXXXX X X Concept (if it were bigger, it would likely appear something like this): XXX XX XXXXXXXXXXXXXX XX XXX Problem (this when rendered looks like a sideways cross and not a sword): X X XXXXXXXX X X So, to make this look right, we went with the following design (which looks great when facing away from the player icon): X X X XXXXXXXX X X Edited February 18, 2011 by keithbk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yell0w_lantern Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Always welcome another version of Adventure. As long as the vicious fire-breathing ducks are still in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nukey Shay Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 (edited) Wrong forum. AFAIK, the programming/hacks and marketplace forums allow editing to non-subscribers...but all others only feature editing for a short time after posting. Could send the mods a message to move the thread into the 2600 hacks forum Edited February 18, 2011 by Nukey Shay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithbk Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 (edited) Okie, I will move over to there then... I just never seem to be able to find the hack forum. I would assume it would be a forum under programming, but I don't see it there. Ah, found it... Here's a link to that section, which will be maintained with up-to-date .bin files as I progress through this project.

keithbk Posted January 7, 2022 Author Share Posted January 7, 2022 Someone just asked me where the last "finished" file for this game was located and I found it here in this thread. There was another thread that had an older, unfinished version. This SHOULD be the proper final version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithbk Posted January 7, 2022 Author Share Posted January 7, 2022 Thanks for letting me know. I used to have the latest file on my personal website, but I decided to close my personal website and no longer have a direct link to the latest. I appreciate your help!
