Re: Blasphemy! Your favourite C64 SID chiptunes...

Re: A crap version of...
i won't call Transmuter crap and Nemesis is really too good at being choppy
also why you need Subway Vigilante as a crap version of Renegade when we have Renegade3

interesting that, unlike modern guys, he hardly used any textures, and yet most of his works aged well

Re: Zilog's Z80 opcode choice
On forums for 1980s computers that used the 6502, you may come across topics where they discuss what extra instructions they would have liked for the 6502, and how to add more than 256. Generally speaking, you don't get much of these type of discussions for the Z80 indicating that most programmers ...

Re: DenOfGeek : The games that defined the Spectrum
Saboteur instead of Robocop (tho it's not a scroller if it matters)
Rex instead of Jetpac (or Deathchase if it has to be an early one)
also, no Gargoyle titles? and not a single spanish game?

game pack update
i don't usually colorize AGD games (too much hassle and the same gameplay in most of them) but this time meet both parts of Savage Princess (thanks to being made free recently). Play them till the end even if completed before, i think it's worth it. Note (like with any other game with xored sprites)...

Re: SHEEPISH-so much violence in the world of herding!
good work! well, didn't expect any less from this author
however, with this game engine i expected some gfx glitches as well - and there is at least one
sometimes, parts of the shepherd sprite remain in the bottom rows of the screen
i wonder if it's possible to fix it?

Other options for flat 2d are 1st-person (usually a view from a racing car, a crosshair for FPS shooters) Behind view (racing genre is the only that comes to my mind) it's not "flat" even if some objects are flat (but are scaled according to the distance) also even sprite racing games usu...

Put a piece of paper over the entire right hand side of the screen. Everything still visible on the left side is obviously oblique, all the lines are parallel.
