skywaffle Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Happy New Year everyone, During the last week I was goofing around in IntyBasic and developed this. It's a rough work in progress demo of a Contra clone. There are bugs, slow down, and only one stage, but thought it had some potential. Enjoy!

fsuinnc Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Writes Response: I love it when you guys goof around with IntyBasic and make these great looking games! ** thinks to self: Damn! I hate it when these guys goof around with IntyBasic and make something so much better than anything I can come up with. Seriously, Great start and Thanks. Happy New Year to everybody. Let's make 2023 a great year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywaffle Posted January 2, 2023 Author Share Posted January 2, 2023 Thanks! I don't know if this would be developed into a full port, or maybe an original run and gun game. Regardless, it's always fun trying to imagine what some nostalgic games could have looked like demade on the Intellivision. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinjinhawke Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 I was able to try this on JZINTV but it would not launch on my LTO. Anyone else experience this issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywaffle Posted January 3, 2023 Author Share Posted January 3, 2023 Hmm, I had played it on my LTO without any issues, however, I was just using a BIN/CFG. I attached these if you want to try that instead. contra.bin contra.cfg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinjinhawke Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 I'm an idiot. Sigh. I keep forgetting I have the ECS attached. Without the ECS it works fine with LTO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywaffle Posted January 3, 2023 Author Share Posted January 3, 2023 Oh, I didn't think about trying to map out ECS. If this project manages to get far enough, I am fairly certain I'll need the available address ranges that ECS uses anyways for ROM space.

Thanks in advance. For quick testing, I always use JZINTV. I don't believe there is a more accurate Intellivision emulator around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+nanochess Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Wow! I saw the video but I didn't know there was a ROM available. I thought you had just published it, but it was one year ago!!! 🤯 Thanks! 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
