It looks like they're no longer selling most of the titles now... When they're all switched on and running in demo mode it's quite the arcade-like cacophony! Unfortunately, they only stay on about a minute or so to preserve batteries. Very cool! Btw, I really like your Complete Peanuts collection. It looks “complete”. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My treadmill desk doesn't have room for a 3rd monitor, so on special occasions I'll setup the ladder-monitor so I can keep up with something during the workday.

+mksmith Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Congrats James! I saw this a little while ago and thought it would make a great 2600 port! It's a fun game - well done mate 😁 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dionoid Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 @ZeroPage Homebrew I just watched the latest ZPH recording and that Pac-Line game looks really good for your first game, James! I would be interested in a special episode of ZPH where you dive into the technical details, e.g. using Stella with debug colors to show which objects you used, etc 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would make for a really fun thing to include in one of the streams. I'll probably do that once I'm finished with all the things I want to include in the game.

Nop90 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Thank you for playing my game. I enjoyed the whole stream and was so lucky to guess the R letter. I can't believe you found the bug with the platforms, I had no time to fix it and I thought it was unlikely to happen 😅. Please tell me what do you think I should change or improve. The game will never be exactly like the C64 version, but I think some things can be done a little better. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're so welcome Gisberto and congratulations on winning the ZPH coaster! 15 hours ago, Nop90 said: I can't believe you found the bug with the platforms, I had no time to fix it and I thought it was unlikely to happen 😅. A very minor bug in the scheme of things! We tend to find bugs once in a while on the show when playing the games and it seems helpful to the devs so we're always happy to help! 15 hours ago, Nop90 said: Please tell me what do you think I should change or improve. The game will never be exactly like the C64 version, but I think some things can be done a little better. You've definitely captured the spirit of the amazing C64 version and I'm extremely happy with the look, sound and feel of the gameplay on the Lynx! Here's some suggestions/bugs we found: 1) I'm not sure if you watched all the way to the end but I think we found a bug with the countdown timer at the end of the last game we played. While we were piecing the puzzle together the timer went past the 6hr mark but allowed us to keep playing. When we exited the computer we weren't able to get back into the computer again and only triggered the end of the game when Tanya tried to enter a room from the elevator shaft area. 2) Depending on how much room you have left to implement this and how easy it is, you could give the option of an alternate Lynx colour palette in addition to the traditional (and limited) C64 palette. 3) This is a personal request but if you could make the B button and alternate way to get to the computer in the game, my consolized Lynx only has the A & B buttons mapped to the external controller. Tanya and I really couldn't find other weirdness or bugs you don't already know about in the game compared to the C64 version, you've done such an incredible job! Very looking forward to trying to beat the game when we play it again after the final updates! - James 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
