is that easy enough to program if u have no knoledge of assembly at all?

well, the api has various routines that let you work with very little register and stack head-aches...though it would be a bit slower that way, but it would be faster than doing the math in basic

Well all it is in BASIC is

N+I->N:O+J->J
If 36<=[A](N+I,O+J:Then:-I->I:-J->J:End

Note, these aren't the acual vars I used in the game

but that's it... hmm...

CDI · « **Reply #66 on:** December 18, 2005, 03:17:00 am »

wow O_O

maybe you should keep your current engine, release the demo then update the engine right afterward

How many enemies will it have at a time? Also, what enemies are there?

Great! A release in a week, man you do work fast (like Kevin and Spencer)!

necro · « **Reply #71 on:** December 29, 2005, 05:01:00 am »

well, any new progress?

dysfunction · « **Reply #72 on:** December 29, 2005, 05:05:00 pm »

Hope this doesn't become like Joe P.'s Metroid thread.

CDI · « **Reply #73 on:** December 29, 2005, 06:04:00 pm »

Okay, well I don't have a non buggy CODEX and I haven't been able to get xLIB with FG capibilitys so it's stopped right now, the only reason is that I can't do anything with a game that is ~27000b... but it is going good, I have 2 enemies a Metroid ish thing and a star ish thing... gtg for now

well, I'd feel bad sending a copy out without permission, but can you work on each individual area? Tr1p1ea will surely release it soon.
