+Philsan Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I am happy to see that I was not a fool when I enthusiastically commented April 1st news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olavese@online.no Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 That was just awesome. Not far behind the ST version at all. This is something I'd pay money for, really brilliant. whatever happened to the Wolfenstein thingy on the Atari 8-bit? That looked awesome too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fres Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Dubious. I would be very surprised to see this on any NTSC machine and would pay handsomely ($25) in case my doubts are placed poorly. [extra $5 if sound effects are included] (the dull look on my face is not accidental ... nor is my mustache) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spookt Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Man I hope that comes off. I loved this one on the Amiga and that Atari footage looks amazing. I'd happily pay money for a nice release on cart or disk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tin_Lunchbox Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 It does look almost suspiciously good, but I auto-translated the page and if it's not real, the person is fooling a lot of people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Looks real enough to me. It's not like the game is out of any realm of possibility - it's fairly simple and doesn't have lots of stuff moving around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creature XL Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Looks real enough to me. It's not like the game is out of any realm of possibility - it's fairly simple and doesn't have lots of stuff moving around. It hasn't have the "normal A8 problems" aka lots of sprites (with different graphics) and colorful graphic. So it is technically not impossible. However, I guess the game mechanics are not simple to implement and if I remember correctly it has lots of screens. On that note, I hope that not only level one is "convrted". I played this lots of times on the ST and Amiga. But didn't get too far in the 2nd level. So I would replay it if it comes to the A8. If with all level I would defo pay for a cart (and would donate some € if it is released as XEX). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emkay Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 I wonder how someone could doubt the Atari can do this. It's all there. 32 bytes width save CPU time for the software objects, and vertical scrolling comes almost for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted April 29, 2012 Author Share Posted April 29, 2012 yeah. uses "ST techniques"... scrolling only while flipping screen etc. hopefully it comes to real. looks really good and I loved to play the ST version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defender II Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 (edited) I would definitely like to get this as soon as it comes out. There have been some nice projects come out on atariOnline.PL and this game looks to be a quality production. Thanks for your work Xeen, etc., great job!

analmux Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=eeRZrysYrRU ... About the music in this video: The music track has some digital effects, and the video suggests that this track is in-game music. But, is this music track in reality also played in the in-game mode? Or was it added / mixed later to the video? Could someone please make this clear? Anyway, this tune seems to make use of some interesting synth instruments.

candle Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 (edited) have you bothered to read desc for this video? Atari Rick Dangerous Trailer 2. Audio track: "Brain Damaging Arps" by Ultrasyd. http://freemusicarch...music/Ultrasyd/ http://freemusicarch...rasy/Brain_D...

Heaven/TQA Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 btw. VBXE support should be easy when game ready? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
analmux Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 have you bothered to read desc for this video? Apparently. Thanks for clearing it up anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 I doubt the author will bother. If a Rick game was to be done for VBXE the best strategy would be to just go for 320 mode from the beginning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emkay Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Anyway, this tune seems to make use of some interesting synth instruments. Seems, they don't know how "POKEY" it sounds.... for real ..... It's really interesting, no one is writing a dedicated tracker supporting such sounds. If standard ear bleeding was wanted, they wouldn't add such tunes to the videos.

Yautja Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 You can compare the various versions of Rick Dangerous -check the slideshow, please: http://atariteca.blogspot.com/2012/04/rick-dangerous-para-atari-8-bits-en.html Graphical differences are evident -and by far, seems like good news for A8 users. - Y - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
