retroillucid Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 Amazing job J-F getting these screens to look so much like the originals. I don't know how you do it. And the first babe looks hot ..... I can't wait to see more! This will be worth the wait. I never thought I would see LSL on the CV. Please take your time and make this one a classic Thanks! I'm indeed trying to stay as close as possible to the original game Now, how I do it... Well, I'm using a simple paint program and I use the Colecovision color palette to fill each screen (256/192) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoulBlazer Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Really impressive work! I'm a fan of the original game -- bought the VGA version (the upgrade) when I was probably too young to be playing it. Been a fan of the series ever since. I've talked to Al Lowe before via e-mail and he's a very cool guy. Has his own website and everything. I'm sure if you contacted him via e-mail he'd be very interested in the project and would probably even give it his blessing. I KS'd the recent re-make also, which was a very good game also in it's own right even if it didn't really add that much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retroillucid Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 All backgrounds done! Only 2 babes left and it's all completed! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youki Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 aaah! the Babes!!! ..that's become interresting!!! ... they are awesome!!! ;-) A side that, do you have an idea how you programmer will manage the fact that Larry when he walks can go behind some background and in front of others? On a PC and most of other computers it is easy to manage , but with the Colecovision/MSX VDP that's another challenge... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I understand why you changed the character's name and all (Toby will be forever immortalized!!!), but it just doesn't flow as nicely as Larry does. How about Leisure Suit Leroy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
privateers69 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Or how about "Leisure Suit Al"? In respects to Al Lowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinroh Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Wow very cool! I always wanted to port this to the Atari 8-bits, but this is pretty gorgeous what you have done with the Coleco! Can't wait to see more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks J-P As for Larry walking behind some backgrounds, we may just end up doing ''cuts'' instead of walking behind walls Oh, here's a new screen, just for you Edited January 15, 2016 by retroillucid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroillucid Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Here's the last background images Every in-game backgrounds are completed by now Edited January 15, 2016 by retroillucid 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+evg2000 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) So why is it with your images that when I click on the thumbnails they open up smaller? I thought the idea of thumbnails was that when you click on them they get bigger. and this looks amazing!

This must be because thumbnails on AA are higher than the native ColecoVision screen resolution wich is 256 / 192 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retroillucid Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 Any chance for a 18+ version? I'll be honest, since you mentioned this, I thought it was a very good idea I've always been against any form of censorship anyway so.... Can the ColecoVision community can handle an Unrated version of this game? I mean, it's just 8-bit tities afterall.... 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, if naked boobies offend someone, they sure as hell shouldn't be buying or playing Leisure Suit. ColecoVision boobies for the win... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
