+Gemintronic Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Here is my homage to Balloon Fight for the NES. CONTROLS: Press FIRE to move forward and up. Set any difficulty switch to PRO for faster gameplay. RESET brings you back to the title screen. DEATH: Touching the mushroom demon or angry bee will deduct a life. Reaching the far left of the screen will deduct a life. Falling down off the screen will deduct a life. SCORE: 10 points for every red flame picked up 100 points for every joystick picked up NOTE: If you lag behind on the left hand side of the screen the cave will deteriorate and force you to rise. balloongrc.bin 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Random Terrain Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I'll only play it if I die if I touch any part of the playfield and only if I get to press the fire button so much and so fast that I dislocate the bones in my thumb. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I guess that's one vote for: * Faster scrolling * Touching solid ground makes you lose a life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Random Terrain Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 * Faster scrolling * Touching solid ground makes you lose a life. And it should scroll so fast that you can't even see the playfield. The only way to play would be to use the force. What happened to the adventure game you were thinking about making?

+nanochess Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I think the girl jumps too little when pressing the fire button. You could do a better animation for the girl, so it looks like she is running and another frame for the jump, and another for falling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its spiritual successor is Atarowg which John Hancock is handling physical copies of: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/223227-atarowg-atari-2600/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I like the floaty flying effect when jumping. It's like a cross between Flappy bird, Giana Sisters, with a little Dr. Mario (badguys remind me of that) mixed in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SpiceWare Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Your title made me recall this scene from Red Dwarf when Kryten, a mechanoid, was turned into a human during the episode DNA. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
