donnerkuh Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 (edited) Talvisota Use sniper1_0 (Final Version) I want to show you my new sniper game, Talvisota. You are a sniper in Finland and the soviet army started a attack at your position. You have to hold your position as long as possible to enable the evacuation of civilians. The score shows how many people could flee because of your brave fight. Take a look at your heart rate (Heartbeat, Livebar). Every missed shot and every surviving enemy will increase your heart rate. A higher heart rate will make it more difficult to aim targets. If your heart-rate gets critical high, you will surrender and the game is over. The only way to lower the heart rate is to hit the tank. Enemys: Soldiers. The soldiers try to reach one of the two bunker in the middle. Try to stop them. Bunker-Machine-Gun - See the fire from out of the bunker and shoot it to stop Machine-Gun fire. Trucks. They will transport supply for the enemy - set it under fire Tank. Indestructable with your small gun, but every hit will reduce your heart-rate. Try to hit tanks as often as possible. Planes. Slow enough to try to shot them down. Machine-Gun - Small target but it will not disappear. You have time to aim and hit the target Every hit will be confirmed (red hook) and increase the score (fled civilians) Please tell me your opinion. My to do´s: - Release game (if someone needs this game?) - Version073 : Sound completed - hear your heart-beat and feel your increasing stress. sniper032.bas.bin sniper040.bas.bin sniper046.bas.bin sniper070.bas.bin sniper073.bas.bin sniper1_0.bas.bin Edited June 13, 2021 by donnerkuh 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+MarcoJ Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 This is fun. Thanks for posting. The crosshair offset after firing mechanic makes the game challenging. It makes the player try to find the best time to shoot rather than just mowing things down. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfredtdk Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 really liked the game. It has a lot of potential. A tip is not to shoot aimlessly, wait for the right moment, aim well and hit the targets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfredtdk Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Donnerkuh the reset key has no functionality to start a new game. Will this be fixed in a future update? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donnerkuh Posted April 16, 2021 Author Share Posted April 16, 2021 Switchreset should now work. And now you really get a lower heart-rate if you hit the tank often enough (little bug removed). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday during one of the matches when reaching the scoreboard 260 the game simply stopped, only the crosshairs kept moving, other enemies no longer appeared. I know the game is in development and that future fixes will come. It's just an account of what happened. I like this style of play, we don't have much of that genre in the 2600, as our friend chevy mentioned one of the classics just above, CrossBow. 20210416_015836.mp4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donnerkuh Posted April 16, 2021 Author Share Posted April 16, 2021 (edited) Oh, the reason is i have to add much more enemys, the "story board" has to be written 10 times longer. After that i will make a loop, maybe with faster enemys. I will do that this weekend. After that i will ask you to test the difficulty. Good score - try to hit the tank more Edited April 16, 2021 by donnerkuh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donnerkuh Posted April 17, 2021 Author Share Posted April 17, 2021 Update released - one more enemy, longer gameplay. In the next step i will insert hard-to-hit-paratroopers. And a loop - to get endless waves of enemys. A PAL Color Version will come, Al_Nafuur 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfredtdk Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Talvisota this is a game that moves your emotional. If you get carried away by the emotion, you risk losing everything and you will end up surrendering sooner than expected. Maintain common sense and wait for the right moment to hit the enemy target. Like a good soldier maintaining his emotional balance and everything. My score version 0.40 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donnerkuh Posted April 18, 2021 Author Share Posted April 18, 2021 Your score is great - today i tried to get a better score, but i wasn´t successful. Please try sniper046. If you are happy i will be near at Version 1.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfredtdk Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 (edited) 6 horas atrás, donnerkuh disse: Sua pontuação é ótima - hoje tentei fazer uma pontuação melhor, mas não tive sucesso. Por favor, tente o sniper046. Se você estiver feliz, estarei próximo da versão 1.0 Obrigado Donnerkuh. É difícil para mim quebrar meu próprio recorde, mas se eu puder, vou postá-lo aqui. Agora com as novas adições na nova versão. O que são esses objetos caindo do céu, bombas? Até agora não encontrei nenhum bug, relato para ver. O jogo está ótimo, evoluindo muito bem, mal posso esperar pela versão 1.0.

alfredtdk Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Does Donnerkuh accept a suggestion? This is a war scenario, what do you think about adding a grenade? To give that kaboom effect on the screen, an explosion of effect if you are unable to inactivate with your weapon? What do you think? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lewis2907 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Fun game so far. I thought at first it was a glitch until I saw the heart moving to simulate breathing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes -- the way it is handled reminds me of the biathalon portion of Winter Games -- which is a good thing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfredtdk Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 This game only gets better with each version. I thought it was great for you to hear your heartbeat from version 0.73, very well done, what else is missing? Mystery. My score has increased and I hope to break this new record. ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alfredtdk Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Listening to the heartbeat only raises your immersive experience . Excellent. So far I haven't found any bugs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
