BydoEmpire Posted June 30, 2021 Author Share Posted June 30, 2021 I've mostly been playing with a Genesis arcade stick via emulators. For anyone who has played with a Proline, do you feel that the buttons are mapped right (I'm not sure whether fire or select is left/right)? I can't make it configurable. I wonder if, for example, fire is on the right button, would it be more comfortable with fire on the left? Or vice versa? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I either use one of several NES style controllers or my arcade sticks like the one I got a few months back from Bratwurst. I believe the left button which would be mapped to the left button on a proline, is the fire button. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BydoEmpire Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 I haven't made any changes to the game in the last couple of weeks, though I have made good progress on a final, official manual. I'll probably take one or two more looks at the game with fresh eyes to see if there's anything else I want to tweak, otherwise I'd consider the June 29 binary "release candidate 1." I figured I should share the source in case it can be helpful for anyone else. fantasy.bas 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BydoEmpire Posted September 23, 2021 Author Share Posted September 23, 2021 I want to give an update since it's been so long I have not made any changes since the last ROM. I tested a couple of weeks ago and thought I had a problem where it wouldn't let me start a new game after continuing, but I haven't been able to reproduce it. Probably not a deal-breaker, but if anyone has seen something like that I suspect there is a valid bug intersecting starting on level > 1, reaching a new level, continuing. I'm working with Al on an official manual, I've done some drafts and I've provided the text and artwork. I think it's going to be cool! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BydoEmpire Posted November 12, 2021 Author Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) A few minor data changes, no code. I expect this to be the final rom. - Changed grey bat's palette to red so it pops more. Too much grey on the castle level... - Mummies move faster when chasing. - Gem, Chalice and Necklace are worth more points. Also, I did a full play through last week (before making those data changes above). I finally got a perfect game (all 256 rooms) - so it is possible if you've got about an hour and 15 minutes to kill! wizd_211111.bas.a78 Edited November 12, 2021 by BydoEmpire 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edweird13 Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 I've been playing through this on my Dragonfly. First of all this game is great. I've waited a long time for a game like this to be on the 7800. I did notice one bug : Some times when I enter a gate room and the gates open. All of the gates dissapear except for one piece. Its a bug that doesn't seem to affect game play. Thanks for making a great game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems intermittent - sometimes it happens sometimes it doesn't. My timing math is probably off by one in some situations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 I've started a thread to keep everyone updated on the production of all the new pre-order games, including Wizard's Dungeon. I'm also posting photos as items arrive, such as the boxes, manuals, labels, posters, and other items once I've received them!
