Kveldulfur Posted May 1, 2023 Share Posted May 1, 2023 Hello! This year again I want to participate in the ABBUC software contest and therefore I have programmed the next part of my game "Der Schränker". Currently my game is in the test, whether it can be admitted... I hope so 🙂 I have already posted a video of my game in the ABBUC forum during the development. If you don't know it yet, here is the link to the video: Video I also wrote a small presentation for my game. Maybe you like it: Download Greetings Kveldulfur PS: DeepL helped me with the translation into english 🙂 25 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, of course I know the game Platoon on the C64 🙂 It was also the inspiration for my jungle. But I created the jungle myself, which you should also recognise. It's just very similar. The caves and the gameplay there is again inspired by Montezuma's Revenge and contains elements from Mr. Robot. Even though I incorporated elements from other games, the game is still something of its own in my opinion. I hope you enjoy the game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNameOfTheGame Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Thanks for the download and thanks for making the game. It plays very smooth with a nice old-school feel and has cool parallax! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peruchi Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 Fantastic, I love this game! I was longing for a game like this in the A8 platform! It reminds me of Sabre Wulf from the ZX Spectrum fame, but I must say that this game is far superior than that older one, with improved controls, nice and engaging gameplay and a welcome touch of humor! Congrats to @Kveldulfur, you're awesome! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kveldulfur Posted December 27, 2023 Author Share Posted December 27, 2023 This should be possible for "Der Schränker 1". Unfortunately, I used self-modifying code for "Der Schränker 2", which is why I can't make a Cartridge out of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB5200 Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Hello, @Kveldulfur Der schanker 3, 5200 version bug, If you press map button (#) on 5200 version, while in a cave, to bring up the map, the game will end up crashing. Map works just fine outside in jungle area, but will crash the game if You are inside a cave. And also, this is a really cool game, really like it. Thanks for putting it on the 5200.

Kveldulfur Posted January 7 Author Share Posted January 7 Hello! Thanks for the feedback @RB5200. There is no map in the caves, only in the jungle. I must have accidentally activated the "#" function in the cave, although it can't work there. I hope to fix the bug soon and release an update.

Kveldulfur Posted January 14 Author Share Posted January 14 Hello @RB5200! The 5200 version bug has been fixed and the "#" key no longer crashes the game in the cave. -> New version number 1.2 Regards 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
