vhzc Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 (edited) Hi guys. I want to share my current project: Knight Guy on board. 30 squares of fate. This is my second attempt to make this game, because the code of the first one was lost during a flood. So I am re writing it from scratch and making new spritework for it. Is a one player board game with RPG elements. The goal is collect enough gold to buy the Calavera Key and reach level 7 in order to challenge and defeat the Dragon that rules the board. There are turn based battles against monsters where you get experience and gold, minigames where you get gold and chance events. This is the first beta rom. Not all squares are ready and it has been tested only on emulator by now, and since the code is complex, the presence of bugs is highly probable. KGOBOARD_d1.a78 Beta rom 2 - Corrects a bug in roulette screen. - Adds a limit level. - Adds a new minigame. - Cosmetic changes. REMOVED Beta rom 2b - Corrects a bug in roulette screen. - Adds a limit level. - Adds a new minigame. - Cosmetic changes. - Corrects bug in experience gained after monster battle - Corrects and issue that allowed to skip exp and gold if button was pressed. (Replace d2 with this one) REMOVED BETA ROM 2c - Corrects a bug in chance screen. BETA ROM 3 (hopefully) Corrects Bug. Cosmetic changes. New Minigame New Event on first square.

Trebor Posted September 15 Share Posted September 15 I have to chime in... OUTSTANDING! I was playing the original the other day, thinking what a shame it never saw a cart release. Thrilled the concept is being picked back up, and re-worked. Looking forward to its development! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trebor Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago 7 hours ago, vhzc said: Nice! And nice score! How high was your level when you beat the game? 7 with all 'upgrades' and I used one potion to life back up when I was down to about either 6 or 11 HP. I forgot exactly when I used it. Still looking forward to a cartridge release. The old and this new version, a ton of replay value. FWIW, the last known binary of the old version, I still would love to see on cart as the original "30 Squares of Fate". This redone from the ground up version, rebranded as "30 MORE Squares of Fate". Just my humble 2 cents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+-^CrossBow^- Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago @vhzc Okay.. the level 8 bug is still present on this latest demo I'm afraid. I didn't even try to get to level 8 on purpose. Just didn't hit the dragon boss at all while at level 7 but I'm glad it happened since I can at least easily confirm that bug is still present. Next... are you meaning to award several hundred gold when completing the horse jump mini game vs the 30 you used to award? I had over a 1000 gold by the time I hit level 3 and still hadn't landed on the shop space yet. When I did, I had enough to buy everything in one go because of that. Are you ever planning to have EXP that takes you over the required amount to level up, to carry over? Kinda stinks when I'm at 64exp and then fight an enemy that awards like 12exp only to have that reset to zero each time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
