Watching this made me go to Miniclip and play some Flash motherload, enjoyed it.

that is so awesome Sir!  :D I'm playing with this on my calc and its already looking awesome ^^ It is a shame that the screen shifting method screws with the grey scale though :( It can get to the point where as you are moving upward, the greyscale kinda freezes and only 1 diagonal is visible at a time :[ Oh well, it still looks epic :D Mayhaps if you really really needed good greyscale you could write a uber fast tilemapping axiom or something, but I don't think its necessary, it already looks great :)

This looks very great Sir. If you used 3 levels grayscale I would have suggested to simply freeze the grayscale during vertical/horizontal scrolling and have it work when not scrolling or when scrolling diagonaly, but this wouldn't work at 4 level I think...

Maybe while scrolling swap to a black/white tileset.

Hmm that could be an idea, although when scrolling a lot I worry this would look weird. He could maybe swap to 3 level mode or something, though.

3 level still looks fairly nasty while scrolling. In The Mighty Jill off all the black pixels run together.

The way I would do it is animated sprites, and not have the counting var increase if the screen moves.

Eh like in Tio? That's an idea. The game has to be running fairly fast though.

yeah true. I guess if possible it's just best to display a checkered version of the gray that won't move at all. When scrolling it will move anyway, creating a gray effect.

^That's probably the best way to do it but it's highly dependent on how fast you're moving.

Yeah. I guess it's not an issue if there are no physics, but otherwise it might give questionable grayscale quality.

Lol maybe do 3 level greyscale when moving even number of pixels, and 4 level greyscale when moving odd number of pixels :P maybe could work XD

Seeing how complicated it gets, maybe we could just live with the crappy greyscale :P

Yeah. Hopefully in final versions it won't look too bad when scrolling. X.x

I agree. Or maybe 3 levels at times and 4 levels at other times.
