UHATEIT Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I def need some instructions for the first 3 I tried. On the assembloids I don't know what you press when you get a shape you already have and don't need. If you let it time out you lose a life and if you just put it somewhere you lose a life. Not sure if there's a way to throw the piece out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drludos Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Mini instructions for Growing Ties Patrons want to get custom ties. You'll have to cut them perfect-sized ones! Press A to grow a tie. Press B to cut it. The tie will fall down, and hopefully reach a patron. Be careful to cut right-sized ties! You'll get 10 points for a perfectly fitting tie, but less points if it's too long or too short. A perfect sized tie matches the height of the patron's shirt exactly. As the levels go along, you'll discover more mechanics explained in the game: combo system, modifying tie colors, limited tie supply, limited time, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's up now but there isn't much to it yet, give it another week until @LordKraken has had the time to put final touches on it. 9 hours ago, UHATEIT said: I def need some instructions for the first 3 I tried.

Instructions for some of the games have been put up on their information pages, Assembloids has built-in instructions when you run the game, it's selectable from the main screen (press up I think).

LordKraken Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Mini instructions for "The Inside World" You wake up in a strange place, surrounded by weird electronic machines. While trying to make sense of this new world, you're discoverd and arrested by the guards of the Emprocessor who send you into the silicon jail. Helped by a single wandering bit, you escape the prison and find a laser gun. Now corrupted PCB are on your way... Will you escape from The Inside World? Press A to run. Press B to fire (diagonal fire is WIP). Destroy all the corrupted PCBs! Note that the game loop is not working properly yet. As such you cannot die or win. Expect a fleshed out version by the end of the week, with multiple waves, and a final boss fight! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+karri Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I also burned a set of real carts for testing purposes. Now I just need a real label for every cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UHATEIT Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 On the site there is mention that some of the ROMs are not final ROMs and more updates may happen towards the end of the week. If that's the case why not wait to burn the actual carts? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case why not wait to burn the actual carts? Because my carts can be erased and burned again millions of times. The times for chips that could be programmed once belong to history. Der Luchs is also using that same chip in his carts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadest Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 My labels are just temporary ones, with 2 small adhesives to maintain them, so I can remove and replace them easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I also had access to the amazing cart programmer reader/writer hardware and 3D printed cart shells! ??? Hehehe, shameless self promotion there! Great job on making these! If you want to send me the labels you made I can put them on the website for download. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+karri Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 It would be very nice to have labels in the same style for all the entries in the competition. Just one variant for each game please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As said before, it is just placeholders to find easily which cartridge is which game. Apart Ynxa label done by @KevinMos3, other one are just the title screen game of the game, with a Lynx banner, and 5,5cm large. They are not making justice to the games, and I would be happy to throw them and replace them with a better quality label. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
