Incredible how a simple game can keep yet emotion. Me lembra os tempos do Atari. Incrível como uma mecânica simples ainda guarda emoção. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Thanks for the report. ;) Yes, it seems that the score is being reset between deaths; I might take a look at it next week: https://github.com/haroldo-ok/river-strike/issues/19 |

I think it's probably just my pathetic biology, but the vertical scrolling motion of this game makes me feel quite dizzy after a few minutes of playing so I can't play it for too long! Would be interested to hear if anyone else found this!
Anyway, the game is very playable, I like it. I don't think River Raid was remade for consoles much more modern than the 2600, and clearly the SMS can add a lot of scope for capability. I do find it quite difficult - there's a point quite early on where you need to move into a little inlet and blow up a bridge immediately which is very hard. Also I feel like the scrolling slows down at points, although can't quite figure out when / why - is it to do with the number of sprites on screen? |

I would have to take a look; could be the dithering, could be intermittent slowdown, or something like that.
Yes, the level generator is prone to creating bottlenecks when generating the bridge at the end of the level: https://github.com/haroldo-ok/river-strike/issues/9
That's correct, the game is presenting slowdown when there are too many sprites on screen: https://github.com/haroldo-ok/river-strike/issues/12 Anyway, thanks for the review; I should probably start fixing a few bugs next week. ;) |

Plays really well. I’m a little surprised how well the gritty graphics style works. Some explosions when enemy or player are hit would be a nice addition. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

You're right; the player is missing a death animation: https://github.com/haroldo-ok/river-strike/issues/20 |

Version 0.8 is now available
![]() |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Version 0.8 has been released.
This version fixes various bugs: - The score counter now does not reset between deaths; - The enemies can now spawn from either side of the river; - The level end logic was fixed to avoid generating bottlenecks on the river. |

Much better. When we win 1up? Quando ganhamos a vida? | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

It took me a while to realize brown stuff = bad and that this was more of a canal shooter. You say it's based on River Raid, but it seems super familiar to an arcade game I've played before but don't recall the title. Nice little nostalgic shooter. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Version 0.9 is now available
![]() |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Version 0.9 is now available:
- Reorganized the title screen to separate the logo's tileset/palette from the jetfighter's tileset/palette; - Used a different image for the jetfighter on the title screen; - This should make it easier to implement the high score screen, later on. |

Hmmm... I think the older image goes better with the logo. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I liked more the actual. @haroldoop dont forgot in put the alert when tank is empty. Não esqueça de colocar o alerta sonoro quando o tanque estiver quase vazio. |
