cd-w Posted August 29, 2022 Author Share Posted August 29, 2022 I can't find the post now, but I think someone said that the PAL colors were too yellow? Here is a version with some alternative PAL colors - let me know if this is an improvement? Chris boom_pal60alt.bin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris boom_pal60alt.bin 32 kB · 8 downloads Mmmh - I would say no changes in PAL colors (maybe walls are a little bit darker 🤷♂️). But still very greenish overall tone.

Here are some different background color variations - can you let me know which you think looks best (the number at the end of the filename is the PAL color value)?

Bomberman94 Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Here are screenshots of each version directly from my CRT (in the correct, ascending order). The first one has a different color but I like it because it has nice color (maybe a little bit too dark) and a good contrast as well as the most beautiful rock color (maybe it could be selectable in the menu to choose a different theme?). It is hard to tell what is the best/most fitting but I would go for the darker ones. Problem is (if i compare with the NTSC version) that the rocks looks too green and therefore too similar to the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: this looks fantastic, and #1 and #6 are certainly good options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamchevy Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 I really enjoyed watching this Interview. I've played Boom! and Zeviouz and they are both great! The ability to use both buttons in Zeviouz is great, this is the definitive version of Zevious now for me. I've never enjoyed Zevious until now. Boom!, how creative! I really enjoyed the added game mechanics as the levels progress, and I think the ability to continue is very nice! Thank you Chris! Just Fun! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilles_B Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 (edited) I don't know if anyone mentioned this already, but the one thing missing is obviously... multiplayer! Blast your friends to smithereens! Wishful thinking here, of course, but wouldn't it be nice? Edited May 11 by Gilles_B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e1will Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 Wow, this is an excellent game! Very addictive. Great job, Chris. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
