Baluba Balok - A little remake

LAst weeks I have been working on a little game for the LD retro compo.
I had to choose between all retro systems and this page, the forums and related links got me caught on SMS and SDCC. So this is my little contribution to the scene . Hope you enjoy! |

Very nice work, are you planning an other game for the SMSPower competition in March? | |

Well.... maybe
Really liked how things funcs and I think I should make a better game, like my last games (ask for violent room in ludumdare, by example). As what I really like is to do shmups, I'm planning to do one, a mix of aleste, hype, zanac... with scrolling and nice tilemap effects, but I see the SMS a little limited (but this is part of the charm...) so today I have been trying the genesis SGDK. I don't know. If could be possible to work in group, could be interesting a more complex project. |

For your possible project, have you seen Power Strike 1-2, GG Aleste 1-2, RType, Sagaia... ???? |

Very nice game. My only complaint is that the level restarts completely everytime you lose a life. That makes it unnecessarily frustrating, imo. | |

Nice work! Thanks for sharing the sources too! :) | |

Awesome game eruiz00 but I have to agree with Kagesan - would be cool if you could just resume the level after you die. |

May I ask how long it took you to code? | |

Ummm. two days. Was a little game for the LD compo, and I get bored too song :) Had experience with 8 bits, as when I was child, developed many little games in msx-basic, and sprites and characters are familiar for me :) | |

By the way, need info about next concerns:
1. Banks and code: allocate code in bank 2, 3... with SDCC. It's possible? 2. It's possible (using SDCC) to have functions memset and memmove but not SRAM oriented? could not find these functions on SDCC headers, and don't want to mess with assembly if it's possible. 3. Alternative (existing) to map image and bmp2tile... something like a mappy plugin, by example. These questions was made because I have thinking about a new game and need it. Thanks! |

1. Allocating code in banks and have bankswitching isn't a great idea, as SDCC doesn't yet support auto-bankswitching. 32 KB should be enough for almost everything you mean to code, and you can have bankswitching on slot 2 (you'll keep your code always mapped and switch the next 16 KB only)
2. SDCC standard libraries should have those too - I never checked myself. Sure you really need them? (edit: they're in string.h) 3. Mappy, yes you can use that. You'll then need your exporters (or ask Mojon Twins to lend you theirs ;) ) |
