Of course. The method I like the most is to add the Assembly Source File to the project and then proto-type the function in a header.

Ok, well I didn't know if you meant you were making a basic 68k program and calling an asm program within the basic one.

wow nice sprite I cant wait to see what you'll make it do! DONT KILL IT O_O

Don't worry xlibman, I'll try me best to finish.
btw, I didn't kill r/p/s. I just don't feel like searching for the bug rooted in the greyscale implementation after I've only finished about 6% of the game. Now that I know how to define a C structure, I think I'll make a structure to organize different character types and make the tile stuff easier. I'll have to fix the way I store data, but I'll eventually fix the greyscale sprites and finish the battle engine.

@saubue: thanks. I hope C will be sufficient for a black and white game.

sufficient? You can do almost anything with TIGCC. However, if you might need some help, feel free to ask

Oh, so this will be a 68k project?

Oh well, at least we will have axchos/cdi or who ever is working on it, as they are making it for z80s

. Good luck with yours though.

Sprites:
user posted image

From the top left going clockwise:
1. Standing still
2-3. Running
4. Sliding to halt
5. Jumping frame
6-7. Possible falling frames. I like #7 (the one on the left) personally.
8-10 Possible wall sliding frames. I personally like #10 (bottom left) the most.

I'll have to use the other comp to experiment with animation frames in imageready. Just to see if I like the sprite sets. Any suggestions for the game or the sprites is welcome!

I'll probably have more to add to the project description later.

Haha, I still love that animation. I think you should make it into a bigger one, so you can have it as a avatar

. I hope to see more progress on this!

ngame is so fun and addicting

kalan_vod · « **Reply #25 on:** April 27, 2006, 04:01:00 am »

Wow, you added more! The others look just a good, man you have some good sprite making skills!

Reserved for more details on progress.

Original Game: http://www.freeworldgroup.com/games2/gameindex/ngame.htm
So I'm basically trying to port that onto 89 calcs. It will be black and white using 8x8 sprites and tiles. I don't know how many enemies and tiles from the original game I will be able to include, but I'll try my best. This and r/p/s are my first projects.

Unlike the original game, N-Game 68k is not played on one screen. It will scroll and the maps will be larger than 12x20 tiles. What I want to do is to create a pause option that will allow you to pause and scroll around the whole map.
As for dealing with enemies, like the homing drones, the snipers, the missles, and the like, I will add a feature called the N Sense. It'll be some for of indication that will tell you if you've been locked on by something, or if something is trying to target you.

I don't know how well I can recreate the physics in the original game. It is really complex which is why I'm not sure if I can include tiles like the curved ones and the irregularly shaped ones.

For more info on the enemy types:
1.) Play the game
2.) Click on help, and then enemies (right) and read about them.

I would vote for all, but I can'd

...Any would be great though.

More sprites!!!! I think I'm forgetting to do some. If someone sees a sprite I'm missing, please tell me.

I need some advice from the C masters. Should I use rotation routines or should I just store all versions of the sprites? Which way is faster? I think I'd prefer the faster way, but I assume not using a rotation routine may make things difficult to organize. I'll really have to think about it.
