feo Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Hello guys, Just found out about IntyBasic, it looks GREAT! I would like to get started on it and hopefully someday be able to do something as good as the falling apples or the jumping clowns. I am trying to get started but I am having a hard time getting going. Does anybody have like a simple pong program I could dissect to learn? or is anybody by any chance working on any type of getting started tutorials? do you need a very knowledge less guinea pig? or maybe some URLs you can recommend? I do have some Basic language experience, I think I just need a bit of push to get going. 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/228731-intybasic-getting-started/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Hi, feo, Welcome! I'm glad you decided to join the Intellivision programming community. IntyBASIC is a great tool to get you started. From what I understand in your post, you are all set-up and ready to go, but just need some guidance in getting your game started. Is this correct? Unfortunately, there is no tutorial at this point. However, user catsfolly has made available the source of his Bouncing Clowns game, which may help you start. I believe there are a couple of "demos" that come with the compiler as well that should aid. Do these help? -dZ.

catsfolly Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I put some sprite demos in this thread: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/223031-intybasic-sprite-demos/ These examples read the controller and allow the player to move an animated sprite across the screen. I tried to make them as short as simple as possible, but I suppose they could use some more comments. If you have any questions, let us know - we like to answer questions.

+nanochess Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Nice to see another developer for IntyBASIC The IntyBASIC package contains various tiny examples and also two mini-game examples, game1.bas (shooting a letter) and game2.bas (kind of Berzerk) Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/228731-intybasic-getting-started/#findComment-3052739 Share on other sites More sharing options...
