thanks for the complements

also,
I'm now thinking of adding 2 on 2 mode, switch-activated platforms, loading a level design from a pic var, and a few other things

Sounds great.
As a side note, have you considered scrolling edges?  or would that take to much memory?

I won't add scrolling edges to this game, but I'm saving that for my ball "Toy" game, which features a gigantic world to play around with a ball in

sounds similar to what I was messing around with today.  I am having fun learning about tile mapping.  The way i do it is to have the world scroll and the character will stay in one place

I always liked that method too rather fast and a bit quicker to code.  Right now my challenge is getting it to smoothscroll with the character moving fotwards-backwards nearer to the edge.

Also, I guess I didn't explain what is in version 1.0:

-Sports announcer after each round
-instant replay letting you look at the last 20 frames before the last score
-A decent title screen, options screen, and info screen
-you can actually win the game now (takes ten scores)
-fixed a few bugs
-etc.

the replay is the coolest though

How do you have the replay coded?  Is it 20 767byte pieces of memory?  (happybobjr hopes not)

it does require about 14K open RAM, but it's safecoded to tell you when you're getting near low RAM and if you have enough to allow playing of movies.  It's worth the memory however, as it is REALLY cool...

and also, the program can be ran from the RAM nostub and still have enough room for the replay data.

Could this cause "wear and tear" on the memory though? (question directed twords everyone)
Maybe have a list of all previous commands and reverse engineer with current variables to be smaller?

might as well post 1.0:

EDIT: reposted in another reply.

thanks

I got the idea of it from watching football last weekend, I thought "hey that in a calc game would be awesome!"

that and the commentator give it a more sporty feel though the commentator only says like 10 different things right now, I intend to add at least 100 more then it's really realistic

EDIT: also, maybe even the commentators marking up the "field" like in football to show motions and also maybe a second replay option to replay at full speed before replaying in slow-mo

and I hate to judge my own games, but this one is my most addicting game ever played it for an hour stright during science today
