neotokeo2001 Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 OK. This is a little strange. Go here for the background story: http://atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t...der=asc&start=0 I need help designing food sprites for the following joke hack. Tronman!! Tronman must make his way around the game-grid and collect the food that appears. Collect enough food and the card-key to the next level will appear, grab it and move on to the next sector and a new item to feast on. Beware of the patrolling Recognizers, If they catch Tronman they will De-Rez him. Any help on the enemy or food sprites would be welcome. Atari Troll?? Out of Gas?? Anybody?? A work in progress label is below. Anyone want to make a better one?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neotokeo2001 Posted June 17, 2004 Author Share Posted June 17, 2004 Latest Update: Trying to give the hack more of a Tron Feel. Changed Title and Score Font Added Background Bits Added Data Transfer Points (Ladders) Tronman now Digitizes up the Transfer Points(Instead of Climbing) New Title Font: Tronmans stomach bounces!! Digitized Tronman passing up the Transfer Point Would anyone be interested in getting a cart of this hack?? It would look nice in a clear red shell.

Susuwatari Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 I'm interested in the hack should someone work on it but please use a different art for the box! An overweight guy with nothing to hide his modesty isn't going to sell well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fellow Atari Man Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 The box and Recognizers in the game kick ass!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARI TROLL Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Count me in on this one dude! Clear red case Very nice!! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARI TROLL Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Forgot I will definately help with this one...can you PM the binary? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susuwatari Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Here's a better idea instead of red case, use a clear blue case, paint on some fluorescent blue stripes and tuck a few UV LED inside so the cart glows when it's on. Now if I can get a hold of a clear blue cart case without having to buy a game... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vic George 2K3 Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Mini-recognizers!!! The MCP couldn't afford the real big ones here with all the power he's usurped, so he sent these to go after Tronman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you collect food, the MCP loses power untill you are able to get the key card from him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trip_Cannon Posted June 17, 2004 Share Posted June 17, 2004 Hahahahahaha! That's amazing!! The game looks great so far!! But I have a question. What's the purpose of the cherries and fruit things on the box? Could the fruit be changed to something more Tronlike? And I don't want to seem like a nit picker (I could be wrong), but wasn't he given the nickname Tron Guy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don't want to seem like a nit picker (I could be wrong), but wasn't he given the nickname Tron Guy? The fruit is just a placeholder graphic for the different types of food that Tronman will collect thru the various levels. The food sprites are still being designed and have'nt been added to the hack. The food idea is a joke based on the bulk of Tronman. I did'nt know there was a serious project to make a Tron Guy game so my hack will stay Tronman. I will post some updated shots this weekend.

Atari Charles Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 Atari Charles here, Your hack is coming along very nicely. I'm sure Tron Man will be pleased. You might want to substitute the fruits for hamburgers and more fatty foods. Pm me when you get your PMs. Atari Charles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes it harder that they have to be single color sprites, so a hamburger just looks like a blob. Still working on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATARI TROLL Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 I was going to suggest a deatly disk in place of one of the fruits but it wouldnt make sense with the food theme. disregard. All the latest additions look awesome! Getting better by the updates! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Charles Posted June 21, 2004 Share Posted June 21, 2004 I have spoken with the real Tron Man and he has given two thumbs up for this offshoot. Good work so far. Atari Charles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
