Beeblebrox Posted May 5, 2023 Share Posted May 5, 2023 Nice. Very clever use of dithering and shade to give a sense of depth there. Coming on nicely. We'll done to all involved. Don't get me wrong as I love seeing these teaser images and videos but I was gonna suggest not giving too much away... don't wanna spoil the surprise after all.

+Stephen Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Not sure what this is about - when the video stopped, Youtube was gracious enough to present me with these 4 recommendations (none are shows I have ever heard of before BTW).

_The Doctor__ Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 (edited) that's not the suggestion choices I was given maybe it's tracking something you've seen tailoring it to what it thinks you might be interested in?

Jacques Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 (edited) Oddly I saw more posts and updates about Amiga version on PPA.PL than Atari on Atari sites... Edited July 27, 2023 by Jacques Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RafalDudek Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 I have to write, the game TONY was supposed to be for Atari, my brother XXL coder promised that it was not a problem, so I made graphics for Atasri, but my brother didn't have time, I found another coder but his work is also minimalist, I have a question what is the problem with coders from Atari, since the coder from C64 wrote the code for my game 2 months, the coder from Amiga wrote it in a one month, the coder from ZX Spectrum wrote it in 2 months... why is atari so complicated 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Amiga Coders normally figure out Atari 8 easier than Commie Coders. Atari and Amiga are same lineage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shanti77 Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 For the Amiga, such a game is not a challenge, so it can be created in some tool, e.g. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solaris104 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Tony demo for Amiga is written in Blitz Basic. Unfortunately, it sometimes flickers while playing and contains glitches 😞. I played version 1.0 and the last version 1.2.http://aminet.net/package/game/demo/TONY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speccy is interesting, it has many similar games done already, so my guess is that coder used existing code, or maybe even something like AGD engine to code it faster. Anyway, two months is great dev time for sure. The only way I can see Tony work on A8 is bitmap mode, with bitmap sprites. Let's just say games with such gfx are rare, which means that coders who can code that are rare too. All the best with the game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe because they're busy coding their own games? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I think he's asking what the problem is with getting coders for the Atari, since asking for them on other platforms normally yields plenty of volunteers 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 (edited) I'm afraid Amiga and C64 are much bigger scenes, therefore more potentially available coders. Edited August 7, 2023 by Jacques Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matosimi Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 also it is about personal preference of a coder... i don't find the game interesting enough, the graphics is of course wonderful, but from gameplay point of view it is about jumping over obstacles and opening doors with keys...like Montezuma's Revenge or Deimos. We have been here already. I'm missing something special here like portals, teleports, altered gravity, character metamorphosis, alternate realities, world alteration... just some sauce. I'm crossing fingers for anyone who decides to pick up this project, it's just not my cup of tea. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I kind of see that, it could use some nifty traps, flying darts, and magic... mayan magic like a flaming skull portal... cool thoughts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony could become some kind of Rick Dangerous, since it looks like Rick takes quite long to arrive on the A8 (unsure if it ever does)...

RafalDudek Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 in TONY game we have various traps, spears, skulls, spiders, scorpions, snakes, skeletons, indians, flying masks, flying arrows and big falling stones, there are 5 different levels each with different graphics and different sprites. Magic is an elixir that protects us from various enemies... Here is an example of falling stones and arrows, this level "Montezuma's Pyramid" is in work progress, and not all objects are available yet. 367985738_836005204443576_5205165696084483499_n.mp4 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beeblebrox Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 @RafalDudek Nice. Just for reference is the video of the progress of the Atari 8-bit version, (A8), or the Amiga? (The music being superimposed over the top of the A8 version just for the purpose of the video). Can I ask what is the current state of play for the A8 version? Is it being coded? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(the difference is the music). Yes, the coder is working on the Atari version and there is progress in the work. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
