Ah yes, I see. I'd be willing to use up half my character set to realize the main character! :) (Any progress on the engine?) Version 1.0 of the engine (for Postie's Peril) is finished. However, after that game is done, I want to make some changes to the code - there are some ugly hacks in there (b...

I agree. Looking forward to writing a game with this - I'll probably write a Reality-On-The-Norm game (an old Adventure Game Studio group project). But only if the movement controls are customizable to ZXKM. :) So we can start work, what are the maximum main character sprite dimensions? Here's Mika...

Game B - Saboteur

Thanks @serbalgi! This worked a treat

I've been wrestling with the FUSE debugger, and I can't figure out how to make it watch for a specific value being written to an address in memory. I can get the breakpoint to trigger for any write to the address, but I only want execution to stop if this one value is written to memory. I haven't be...

I would remove COS, since there would be no loss in functionality - any code that called for "COS x" could just be rewritten as "SIN 90+x". In its place, I would agree with MatGubbins for a "plot graphic" command, but instead of making it a separate command altogether, I would just make it a pixel-p...

This is awesome! Just tried the PostedPeril Demo and with something like this, a lot of dreamed-games can come true :D BTW, did you considered to use a mouse driver like this or this ? Thanks oblo for your kind comment! In regards to a mouse driver, I may implement one. I'm trying to avoid touching...

It's still 'Vortex Tracker Help', but a different problem, so I'll post it here. Someone has provided me with an .AY file that gives the following error when opened in both VT 2 and 2.5. Text module loader error Module not found (line: 1) Any ideas? .AY files are generally used to store music rips ...

Love it—this is something special. The control mechanism takes a bit of getting used to, but the instructions are all very clear. Please finish it! Thanks, R-Tape! The controls are a bit fiddly at first, but they do get easier to handle with time. An inlay will be included with the full game, with ...

This project is not dead. Quite the contrary in fact, as I would like to show you a demo of the first game being written with the engine, "Postie's Peril": https://youtu.be/RE-Ctp0DezU It's all well and good seeing the game, but why not trying it as well? The video above only shows a bit of the demo...
