Maybe substract gold only after placing item inside bottle? It would allow ppl to change their minds, especially in the case of accidental item selection.

Well just consider before you hit buy
Seriously though, I'm leaving it how it is atm.

New bug!






Just kidding I'm gonna download this later if I get time to replay through the game. I'm glad it came out so polished (except the menu but in ASM I know lines are incredibly hard) and it's definitively gonna be a big addition to the long-inactive library of ticalc ASM RPGs. Also, Nomination Movember?

EDIT; Soo, how many people made an RPG as their first ASM program

Hayleia did. Pokémon Topaze. Yes I know it's Axe but still

Nice work though that's something I really wouldn't be able to get around with ASM.

In Pure ASM, the only other person I know of that finished an RPG as their first project is tr1p1ea, with Desolate (if we can count that as an RPG).

Granted, Reuben 2 is pretty short compared to some RPGs like Joltima and The Verdante Forest, but it's much longer than Reuben 1 (I spent like 5 hours finishing Reuben 2 ASM while it only took me 2 hours to beat Reuben 1 Axe. The BASIC games took twice as long).


Another thing is that unless I am forgetting games, if we exclude Desolate, Reuben 2 ASM would be the first pure ASM 83+ RPG to get finished since The Verdante Forest in 2004, assuming we can consider TVF as finished despite its many bugs (otherwise it would be Dying Eyes in 1999). On top of that, Reuben 2 was finished in less than 2 years. Of course, though, the story and most sprites were already done and the game is more of a remake than a brand new game, so maybe that doesn't count?

This, but most ASM RPGs took about 2-3 years, plus a lot had been going on for over 5 years before the author finally vanished for good. >.<

Yeah IIRC the issue about TVF is that the first code was written in Kozak's early days of ASM programming and was very broken. The code was patched over over the years until it was finished so it got incredibly hard to maintain such project, let alone fix bugs. Afterward, the author vanished almost completely, although I suspect it was because he felt the ASM scene or TI community was dying at the time, seeing some comments on MaxCoderz back in 2005 or 2006. That makes me wish that Kozak had started checking calc forums in mid 2010 again and not just MaxCoderz, because he would have been very surprised about the revival.

And yeah I didn't mention Robot War since there is no 83+/84+ version (I wish I could try it btw because it looks really impressive, but sadly, my TI-82 run ROM 16.0 and I think the game requires 19.0 or higher)

DJ, i started an 83+ port a couple years back. The first area works fine, i can't remember what's wrong after that though. If you and other people are interested in it i'll put in the work to finish the port. I thought i posted about it here, but i shared the latest .8xp in the new RW2 thread at Cemetech.

EDIT: Here's the link to the download: http://www.mirari.fr/oKGW
Also, there's a little graphics glitch in the battles in the upper right, i'm looking to see what's causing that. I also just fixed a bug where your robots' data would get overwritten 'cuz _PutS was writing to textShadow where that data was stored. So now you can build robots just fine, too

so dev since may, so not exactly that short, still thanks ^.^
