I did notice occasional glitching when moving downward in the middle of the playfield ( this is only sometimes ), I also noticed glitching when you use smoke too, the first 3 or 4 smoke patches are fine and the next one flickers ? Oh, I need to mention I am using a C64C with a KUNG FU CARTRIDGE and not Emulators ok ? The Music is nice and the Title Screen is lovely. One slight request - regards colours - could you alter text colours my TV did'nt like the text colours for "Game Over" and the other Screen Text ( sorry been playing that SNK Fighting Game for the C64 too, wanted to leave Feedback for you both - perhaps next time I will use a notepad and leave myself better notes ). ANYWAY... Nit picking aside... This is a lovely Game, Plays well, sounds nice, respect, respect, respect due - Thank You for making this Conversion - I'm still shocked it's taken so long to be done but - WORTH the Wait - Great Stuff ! Two Thumbs Up
The sprite multiplexer implementation is very simple, when it runs out of sprites there will be flickering as the same sprite is reused for multiple objects in different frames. Keep in mind the player car, red cars, flags, rocks and smoke are all sprites. The smoke is the lowest priority sprite.
I assume you mean it's the high score screen with the blue background that's hard to read? I'll try update the background color, maybe a light blue is better.
Taking so long to finish was mostly due to lack of time and motivation because of work, moving house, family, life etc. It takes some time to get back into working on the project once I haven't touched it for a month or more, but I do think it's important to finish the project.
Cheers,
Jake
YES - It's the High Score Screen with the Blue Background that's hard to read. Did'nt realise the Technical Specs regarding the Sprite Multiplexor, Did'nt want to sound an ungrateful Douche - this is Quality, and I had a LOT of fun Playing it, I shall be returning to it - Lovely Stuff !
I would LOVE a DRAGONBUSTER Conversion if anyone is listening ( One of my fave Old School Games from back in the day... ).
