xxl Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 TIX is an acronym for the names of three people? That's the only way I can think of to explain your three times as productive in graphics. --- When will we see a gameplay video? 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synthpopalooza Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Hopefully not too far down the track. This is really going to be a great game, playing to the Atari's graphical strengths. I've enjoyed making the music too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantômas Posted July 22, 2021 Author Share Posted July 22, 2021 Ok, you quickly discovered that ADM stood for « Abbaye des Morts ». It is indeed a port of the 2010 game to A8. So here are two pictures of our A8 version, the title screen and the first screen of the game (Jean you have to run away!). Of course, these screens will probably vary a bit between now and the first release... 16 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no legal obstacles I think (the original license of the game allows it [CC BY 3.0 ES]), but I don't know how to do it and I don't have any contacts... If someone who knows how to do it is interested in releasing the game in a box, let me know... 15 hours ago, solo/ng said: where do you see the need of vbxe/colormap? despite PNG there are antialias artifacts; I clearly see how its done (colors/pm/5th color etc) but the resizing antialias hurts ; ) looks awesome so far.

Will you be playing to the A8's strengths to pull off the stained glass multicoloured effects you see in other platform versions (via DLI's perhaps), like the C64 version below: IMHO it would be great to also see a full colour title screen rather than a reproduction of the low colour current one. Perhaps a graph2font, piccalo or Rastaconverted image, loaded compressed/uncompressed at the start to save space? Also, what is the target min spec for the game? 64k? Incidentally will there be enemy characters in it like the dragon? Good luck with the project whatever you decide, looking forward to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, if you look closely, you will see that there are 6 colours on the first screen of the game (green, grey, black, brown, white and blue) All screens are manipulated in G2F, although of course not all possibilities are used.

TIX Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) Hey, since I have already shared this with a friend, and some time have passed since the last news bit, I might as well post it here too.. So here is a sneak peek at the 4 screens that makes the monastery ! Have in mind that these screens will probably vary a bit between this and the final release... namely the dli colorization of the windows is missing.. Abbay is in a pretty advanced stage, but there are still lots to do.. graphics are 99% done, @fantômas has been working hard to fit everything in ?

The way they look now is, at at least to my eye, absolutely fantastic. The colour is just right to appear as though they're backlit only by moonlight. It really fits the mood of the game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fantômas Posted November 14, 2021 Author Share Posted November 14, 2021 Hey, Some progress, but as TIX says, there are still lots to do..

Colours and animation looking great. Tix working his magic. I was just wondering ... will the great little touches like the animated falling leaves and tranquil music on the a prayer of hope screen feature in this excellent A8 version of the game?
