@Darl181 : that's exactly what I did O.O
I just implemented the scrolling in the game and reduce the size of the sprite ( ;D ), and effectively, it's still a bit fast

EDIT : eye candy (it's not that bad on a real calc ;D ) :

that's excellent to see, but i hope that the sprites and the background are better distinguishable..

and i think the size of the sprites is perfect now, you have a better moving area, and it seems more natural with the environment being quite big.

Yeah, that's a bit confused, especially with the missile sprite, but I will use Pt-Mask instead of Pt-On in order to have solid white :thumbsup: and as I said, that's better on a real calc.

you should draw something in up at the top of the screen. right now, when you're starting, it's drawing left over data from whatever was in L1/6 before you started, and to make the sprites better distinguishable you could add white outlines. is this game going to have any more enemies? oh, and you should make the background larger so the two sections of wall are the same size and are seamless.
and it does look pretty good =)

Still I have one big image written in hexa (768 bytes hand-wrote >_<) I prefer keep this ;D

Yes of course, there will be 3 enemies : missiles, lasers and zappers, sort of electric bows you'll have to avoid.

And yes, I'll add some 25% grey in the image in order to fill the whole screen.

you don't need to hand-write it. sourcecoder does a fine job of converting to hex, and then you can paste that into the online editor, export it as a program, send it to your calculator, and recall it to whatever program you like =)

EDIT:
a palette swap, like this, would also help to make your sprites more visible.

Does SourceCoder support grayscale? Otherwise I guess first you would need to separate both layers (have one pic with only black and light gray and the other pic with only black and dark gray). Basically get rid of the dark gray and change light to black in the first, and get rid of light gray and change dark to black in the second (photofiltre lets you do that easily, but I don't know if Gimp and Paint.net have that feature). Save both pics separately then convert to hex.

Also this looks great Matrefeytontias. :D You might want to refresh the grayscale multiple times per frame though so it doesn't look too flickery.

I can't refresh several times per frame (with DispGraphrr, right ?), it speeds down too much the whole program :-/

EDIT : what's the ? O.O sourcecoder throws me an error (template file or something) when I load your image, shmibs

Ah ok, sorry to hear. :(

And does the SourceCoder site gives you the error or something? Maybe Kerm messed something up. But it could also be that SourceCoder only supports monochrome (non-grayscale) images.

Maybe SourceCoder got cross-browser compatibility issues or Surpasshosting was overloaded?

oh, i didn't think you were actually going to use that. it was just a quick suggestion. here are a couple of versions that actually loop properly, so there's no edge. making it 3 level grey would probably be a better idea, because it would flicker less ad things would be easier to see.

Actually I like the second animated screenshot better, since it looks less flickery. 3 LV gray might be a better idea if you go with that one, though.
