+Muddyfunster Posted February 8, 2023 Author Share Posted February 8, 2023 Thinking about Bernie & the Tower of Doom's future development. I'd really like to add some music to the game, but music is not one of my strengths (far from it! - my past efforts were described along the lines of dentist drills, cats + hot pokers etc. you get the idea). If anyone is interested in collaborating on the project from a musical perspective, preferably POKEY or POKEY via RMT then I'd love to hear from you. A version with Dual POKEY or even YM isn't out of the question either ! 6 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/345295-bernie-the-tower-of-doom-wip/page/2/#findComment-5204977 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcoJ Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 Nice game. I just tried it for the first time today, with the Trebors 7800 rom pack. The overall presentation is really nice and gameplay begs one to play another stage. The characters have smooth animation. 3 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/345295-bernie-the-tower-of-doom-wip/page/2/#findComment-5260741 Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there still may be other individuals whose interest may be piqued. Bernie and the Tower of Doom is already looking and playing wonderful, some great melodies would make it all the more richer. 4 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/345295-bernie-the-tower-of-doom-wip/page/2/#findComment-5264233 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Muddyfunster Posted August 9, 2023 Author Share Posted August 9, 2023 Bernie has had some work done. Mostly it's on the game engine, bug fixes, optimisations etc. I have however been able to add some music. Thanks @miker for the banging tunes and thanks @RevEng for adding RMT support to 7800Basic. A new demo will be available soon (tm) , but in the meantime, here's a WIP video showing some of the first tower training levels and some tower 2 levels. In the actual game, all story sequences can be skipped through. I've done that more slowly in the vid to give folks a chance to read and listen to the awesome music 17 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/345295-bernie-the-tower-of-doom-wip/page/2/#findComment-5296412 Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Muddyfunster Posted September 16, 2023 Author Share Posted September 16, 2023 A new demo of Bernie & the Tower of Doom is available ! This is public demo 2. This is to the demo that @ZeroPage Homebrew showcased on Friday's stream. Changes since the last demo : Music! (The wonderful musical talents of @miker to thank for Bernie's superb musical score). Some level balance changes and tweaks. Note this is still early code (not much work has happened on Bernie as A.R.T.I. has been the focus), so there could be crashes or glitches!
