Hey nice sprite editor you posted there. I assume it does all levels of grayscale?

Yep. The last few seconds of the screenie show the implemented greyscale. I'd post another that shows what you can do with the greyscale, but Wabbitemu doesn't seem to be perfectly emulating the program and some of the buttons aren't working, although they do on the actual calculator.
Strange, you may want to report this to BuckeyeDude in his topic, with the Windows OS you are using.

I'm not sure it's Wabbitemu that's the problem. SpritEdit is loaded with so many features at the moment (48 different tools) that it's within spitting distance of the 8kb RAM limit.

I see, but recently someone reported another issue with Wabbitemu behaving differently with his program than the real calc. BuckeyeDude or Spencer may have broken something in recent versions x.x

Very well made in my opinion.  It definetaly is lacking in terms of gameplay but from your first post it doesn't sound like that is what you were looking for in the first place :P  What are you working on?

Mhmm suggestion now that I think about it: I think the thing at the top should move no matter if you are dropping blocks or not. it might add more challenge to the game. ALso make it move more often as the game progresses so difficulty slowly increases.

Also I think some weird things occurs when it's on the complete left of the screen and it randomly goes out of it.

Well, the difficulty increases so slowly because it doesn't increase at all. I never added that feature. But I could have sworn that the screen jumping was fixed. Looks like I'll have to take another look at it. Thanks for pointing it out.

 What are you working on?

A game called Black is my primary project at the moment. TI-Explorer, which basically lets you look at every area of addressed memory in the Calculator, is taking shape very quickly though. I'm debating whether I should continue a game called Swing, which isn't terribly promising, or the development of a physics library that was kind of killed by Zedd :P

I wonder what are the Black and Swing games?

Black is for the moment top secret ;D
All I can say is that I'm not sure Axe is powerful enough to completely code it. I'll have to learn ASM to do parts of the game.

Swing is kind of like 2D Indiana Jones meets Mario. It's a sidescroller where you swing around on vines and kill enemies in a Mario style environment.

Ah ok, well I wish you good luck. Hopefully you can find a workaround in Axe to make Black (or when you are ready to announce it or leak some info, you can ask for help)
