+nanochess Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 (edited) Hi all. I was kind of bored so I started coding a port. Can you recognize the game? It requires extra memory provided by CC3 or JLP cartridges (or the -jlp=1 option in jzintv) I made all the introduction, overworld map, movement, missions, and even death screen. Next step would be the pseudo 3D dungeons, these are essentially a game inside the game. I wanted to record a GIF file but somehow the jzintv animation recording doesn't work in my Macbook Air 2020 (it is a jzintv problem because it only generated a 1K file that couldn't be processed by imvtogif cc @intvnut I hope this works better than Messenger! ) Enjoy it! Video update with my progress so far: aka1.rom Edited July 5, 2021 by nanochess 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mik's Arcade Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 as soon as I saw "Lord British" I knew what it was. Have no idea how this will be possible on the Intellivision, but if anyone can do it, you will. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
