Yup, I couldn't stop myself in the end from making a forum post with this one but, as you might have guesed, I've got a lil racer game to work on gameboy classic with gameboy colour forward compatability bits on it. When i say work, I do of course mean, in-development...Ohhh my dum dum brain...ANI GIF! (I'm in the blue 'n' yellow car)

Blimey, that looks fast! Can the screen keep up with that pace? -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Pretty well, although I've only checked on a gba there shouldn't be too much difference, apart from blur on the original gameboy perhaps. The gameboy pocket has a nicer screen though.

Added some proper physics-esque collisions and player positions last night, still hoping to have this finished by the end of the month. refreshgames.co.uk/2016/02/17/racing-for-position/ -=-=- Web / Game Dev, occasionally finishes off coding games also! |

You're burning rubber now!  Any news on physical copies of your games yet? Multiple games on a cart would be rather neat

It would be cool to do that at some point, yeah, problem is finding the time and patience to do that in. It would probably be one game on the cart when that does happen though. Even that part is tough enough!

Hopefully, I'll get that in there before the month is over! Today I've improved the A.I. and a lot of other bits work now. Problem is, I've nearly maxed out the lil Gameboys CPU! Because I'm lazy, here's a link with more info and shiny GIF! refreshgames.co.uk/2016/02/21/racing-a-i-squeezed-in-how-much-is-left/ -=-=- Web / Game Dev, occasionally finishes off coding games also! |

Got another decent night of coding done essentially making the game even tougher. I'm a git like that unfortunately  More damage to the car results in engine damage, slower acceleration, etc, and your car now "pseudo" explodes should you take too much, dropping you 3 places down the order to boot. Vehicles have a little turning animation and I can now load different levels from their own ROM bank, the game code itself seems to be content in just the one so far I might give each track a bit of local flavour by changing some tiles to different varieties just to mix things up a bit also. -=-=- Web / Game Dev, occasionally finishes off coding games also! |

I much prefer a game that kicks my arse, to one that gives me a 17-hour tutorial... Balls to that!! Make it tough!!! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Heheh, okay I've already got ways to introduce an easy /medium mode to it, simple offset changing, still, should be effective

Got around to putting the menu stuff in tonight and balancing the code across 2 memory banks...Ahh gameboy, you are an interesting one to code for!

Pretty sweet! May technically run on an original Game Boy, but that screen would have been naught but a smear. Game Boy Pocket or newer, I'd reckon. Similar games I've played that had difficulty adjustments, the difficulty basically dictated the width of the roadway...if you're still hunting for ideas. -=-=- All the raw, animal magnetism of a rutabaga.

I should probably pick an original one somewhere sometime. I'm looking into adding Super Gameboy bits to it currently, which means I have to dip into assembly. But, if I can make it a function I can simply just call it from C with data to pass to it, which would make things much easier. There's quite a lot to the Super Gameboy after some research, also, it gives me a good excuse to dig out the SNES and cables sometime

Welp., looks like I'll be waving goodbye to my home office space in 3 weeks time :/ My daughter needs her own room, which means I'll be coding in the bedroom now. Also, I have to get rid of a lot of my things. Not overjoyed at that prospect to be honest. -=-=- Web / Game Dev, occasionally finishes off coding games also! |

Kids eh. Who'd 'ave 'em? Can't beat them. Can't give them away. Can't even sell them. Can't send them down the pit. Bloody useless - if you go by the letter of the law, anyway. You teach them to walk and talk, then you tell them to sit down and shut up. And do they? Never! And then they nick your coding space! Grrrrrrrrrr

Evidently my daughter is more gameboy destructive than the Iraq war. Not quite sure how though... Still, finally linked my intro scene up to the actual game now tonight and did some rough colouring in of the title screen. Only having 8x8 blocks makes it tough to set-up!

Did you forget to black outline the "ING" bt of the title? Other than that, nice
