vhzc Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) Hi. First the kinda bad news: I am scrapping A roach in Space 7800 (ARIS7800) because I was not happy with how the game was turning out and I am reorganizing some old projects. But the good news is that I am rescuing an old project and mixing it with some ARIS7800 assets to work in a new game. CANON IN D - D for Defense. It's a really simple shooter (based in Cannonica, a game that I was programming for NES and 2600 ) where you move your cannon left and right and destroy stuff. I have programmed the engine, some enemies and basic stuff, so I have a first demo rom, but since I still don't have a DF or such I have only tested it on A7800, so testing on actual hardware will be highly appreciated. The demo is pretty short, but I want to test the engine before add more enemies. CannonInD.a78 UPDATE: New Titlescreen and more levels. cannonInD-demo02.a78 <-- CURRENT ROM UPDATE - Cosmetic changes. - More enemies. - Internal tweaks. cannoninD-demo03.a78 <-- CURRENT ROM out-40.ogv out-40.ogv Edited January 31, 2022 by vhzc 14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Back Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) I’ll test it on my concerto tonight. Looks really good! Also I like that you had to clarify what the D stood for Edited December 9, 2021 by Silver Back Added thought 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Back Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 I played this on the concerto a little bit ago and it plays well. No glitching or abnormalities to speak of. The colors looked fine as well, comparable to the video and screens I seen others post. It’s definitely a fun concept and I can’t wait to see what else you do with it.

Just the amount of talent and work in these games from the developers is incredible. Great drawing the pixel art version is perfectly translated. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Back Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 (edited) I just realized the new demo is a little different. Played it and this game is coming together beautifully from an outside perspective. Hope you continue working on this. I’m excited for this game.

+-^CrossBow^- Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 @vhzc I'm a little confused on the two wip BINs that have been posted? Which is actually most current? You have it listed at the the top one is current rom, but then in your postings you are referencing the one from Dec. 8th as being more recent?
