"They are here" - Playable shooter

[Darthtom]

First look of my game - made with my own batari kernel

 

I managed to do asynchron playfield pixels within this one line kernel ( PF2 only). Color change on every playfield line 

 

Any suggestions and ideas for improvements welcome

Your kernel hacking has allowed you to make a game with an interesting look, for sure.

 

I can't tell why sometimes a thing goes after me after I hit a brick, and other times it can just delete multiple bricks without that happening.

 

Is anything supposed to happen after clearing the screen? It did not for me.

Hi everyone,

 

i completed my game and it's playable now. I had to skip the nice rainbow color effect ,because the missile had to built in. 

 

Now you have one-line kernel with asyncon playfield PF2, 1 missile,2 sprites ( 1-line hight)

 

I stuck in 4kb rom use, not able to manage bank switching with batari basic and my own kernel. Actually you have 6 different enemy types, there is no space for doing more enemies.

 

Feedback welcome

 

Have a nice day

 

Tom, from Berlin
