+atari2600land Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I just returned to work on Stickman after a two-month hiatus on it. Basically what this game is is a sort of Elevators Amiss-type game for the Odyssey 2. I am looking for feedback on the game to make it better. One of the things I will do is add a score. I haven't added a score yet. It's on the list of things to do to this game. So basically what you're doing is controlling Stickman as he goes up the page moving only left or right. Once he gets to the side of a page, he moves up until he gets to the very top, then a new page will start and Stickman will be at the bottom. Right now I can control the speed of the erasers in the code sort of in intervals of one (and no fractions). Anyway, I'm looking for feedback (and yes, I know, I will add a score.) Press ACTION at the thrilling title screen to start the game. stickman9.bin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Looks cool. And you started an intv version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+atari2600land Posted May 10, 2015 Author Share Posted May 10, 2015 No, there is no Intellivision version. The Stickman game on INTV is something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+atari2600land Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 Well, it took a while, but I finally added a score! Unfortunately, since there's a lot of stuff going on and it takes too much time as-is (i had to compromise a few things), I highly doubt I could fit a high-score function in.

+atari2600land Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 I've added a new bonus point system. It starts out at 9 and then ticks down the longer you stay on a line. This should encourage people to go faster if they want more points, but might lead to dangerous positions. Will you take the chance? By the way, now it is possible to get 0 points for clearing a line if you let the bonus timer tick down to 0! Let me know if you see any bugs. stickman12.bin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+atari2600land Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 I was able to put in an eighth row by changing some code. Right now, erasers 1-3 move at a separate frame than erasers 4-7. Here is what the game looks like now: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+atari2600land Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 Almost finished, if not now. The erasers have four different speeds. It starts out slow and then gets fast. stickman15.bin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
