http://cafeman.www9.50megs.com/atari/5200dev/KoffiKopter.html The Philly Classic is closing in and I've been trying to get some stuff done on this game! Check out the site for the latest progress and updates; the game is starting to get more fun IMHO, though Pyro is still in 'dumb' mode permanently until I can iron-out his A.I. better.
This is probably the last demo I'll post using this color scheme, which looks great on VSS but a bit odd on Atari800win and the actual 5200. I'll probably post one more demo before the game is finalized and made into carts.
Anyway, I suppose there are 2 things I'm most satisfied with in this latest version of Koffi -- first, the animals (well, there is only a monkey at this point) can now be 3-colors instead of 1-color -- this took more work to 'fool the machine' and coordinate the sprite usage than I care to admit!
The other thing is the new lightning which stretches across the screen -- I really like the effect, and I hope to produce a similar effect on the first "Shazam!" kind of lightning too.
Back to the keyboard and monitor I go ... Philly is only a week away and there's lots I want to accomplish by then!
