Tony Cruise Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 New project and game for the original Spectravideo, MSX, Colecovision and Memotech MTX machines in collaboration with Jim's Bite Size Games (https://jimsbitesizegames.com). The game is called Asteroid Rescue, with gameplay split into two sections above ground, dodging various spaceships to land on a pad on the surface, followed by navigating a robot through underground caverns collecting fuel. We have completed the graphics design, along with the animation sequences as per the attached video snippet. Working on the game play elements at the moment, another update soon.

Udderdude Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Lunar Rescue combined with some sort of platformer? Looks cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnalogKid Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Excellent use of "animated" tiles. It's so worth the extra code block for character/color transitions because an otherwise static background comes alive using relatively few clock cycles.

+sramirez2008 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Oh I love the look of this game. Lunar Rescue is one of my favorite coin-ops and this looks like it could have been a proper sequel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrangeKryptonite Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 This looks incredible! I bet it will be one of the top homebrew games ever for the ColecoVision. Can't wait!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
