AtariBuff Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I'm no programmer, so Is it technically impossible on the Inty to combine two sprites for the main character to have him multicolored? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 (edited) I'm no programmer, so Is it technically impossible on the Inty to combine two sprites for the main character to have him multicolored? No, but given that there are only eight movable objects that can be used at a time, sometimes it is not possible to do so. Also, as opposed to other platforms, it is technically impossible on the Intellivision to "chase the beam" when scanning horizontally, so multiplexing objects is reduced to alternating their positions at 60 Hz (at most!), which doesn't look very good. -dZ.

+nanochess Posted August 19, 2014 Author Share Posted August 19, 2014 Just I've sent yet another beta for testing, apparently all bugs are solved of course, waiting for the next beta testing round. A new Intellivision fan has just helped me to solve some punctuation errors in story (thanks mthompson!) In other news, I've secured the artwork of the Colecovision box and it has been sent to Collectorvision for use in the design of the Intellivision box design 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+JasonlikesINTV Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 I just realized that when I read 'Oscar', I hear it in my head with an Americanized accent (like in Oscar the Grouch), but in reality it's probably pronounced more like "Oh, Scar" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're right. In fact to make it clear for people outside of Mexico, in my e-mail/PM I answer with my name with accent "Óscar" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder: is this the first platformer ever made for it? Yep, I adapted it specifically for Intellivision, not so easy as I thought I know very few Intellivision games yet, so I don't know if it's the first platformer.

Rev Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Is Pitfall considered a platformer? Also, maybe Tutenkham and the unreleased Rick Dangerous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
