Of course I always feel like there aren't enough scrolling platformers with background parallax, something the Atari is pretty good at from what I've seen in demos and some games over the years.

Steril707 Posted December 30, 2022 Author Share Posted December 30, 2022 And one more little video. Added some animations and other stuff. Will have the Dragon shot a flame tomorrow, add a death animation for the player, and over the next week create the rest of the screens, and then I will get my little demo out for you guys to try. It's been a bit of a longer ride than I anticipated (although I had some long breaks inbeetwen), but it was a lot of fun so far. The A8s are really nice machines, and my 600XL is here to stay. 14 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/340214-dragonwood-little-game-for-the-atari-8-bitters/page/4/#findComment-5180645 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steril707 Posted January 4, 2023 Author Share Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) And one more. Added a death sequence and couple of other small things that might be not noticed immediately but are needed for the game to work. As you can see, a couple small glitches are still in there as well.. Getting rid of this, having projectiles (player's and Dragon's) and the player duck under them are the last steps, then my demo is finished.

Steril707 Posted May 19, 2023 Author Share Posted May 19, 2023 Hey mate. Have been through a bit of a rough patch lately, so didn't have time to finish my demo.
