+Karl G Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 I'd like to see a screenshot of the alternate colors without the screen dimming issue. I actually think I prefer that one so long as the buggy doesn't blend in too much. Also, green can be somewhat problematic on the 7800, since it is much more prone to color drift than browns and reds. It might be cool to have a choice of which palette you prefer in the game. Either way though, I'm really looking forward to this one! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthpopalooza Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Ok. I have some POKEY sounds and music for this. They were originally for a port that @mksmithwas working on. If, however, this version gets closer to done, would either of you be interested/okay with me contributing? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Synth, I'll include whatever you got 😃, as long as @mksmith is OK with it since those were intended for his project. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The theme could be a post apocalyptic patrol... That would pretty much be every major city and probably most secondary cities in the US. Maybe there can be some derailed trains in the background graphics? The theme of the game can be the moon buggy is bringing water to the citizens of the cities with undrinkable or unreliable water supplies. Or maybe a subway game where instead of fighting the gang that kidnapped your girl, you are fighting off muggers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+x=usr(1536) Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Just finished watching the stream. @OldStyle and @Synthpopalooza, WIP or not, this is one hell of a game. I'm really looking forward to seeing it progress: even as an early version, it does so many things better than other ports of the game on different 8-bit platforms. @ZeroPage Homebrew, thanks for the stream. Really great to have had the chance to get an early look. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really great to have had the chance to get an early look. It feels good, and is a relief seeing the enthusiasm behind this! There were a couple of items that didn't appear during the stream because of last moment additions affecting those spawns. James and Tanya did a wonderful job in presenting most of the content and avoiding most of the bugs, except avoiding the mighta meatball coming out from nowhere .
