Bubble Train

[Flavor]

Bubble Train is running on the Wiz. You can download it here.

The Neo Geo Pocket emulator called RACE should also be available soon. Bug TJ Hooka about that one.

Nice one Flavor!
Looks like a addicting game!

THANK YOU !!!

 

[Flavor]

Let me know if you try it. I haven't played it on the Wiz that much yet, but it seemed to work fine.

It runs fine, but the sounds is not running smooth...

You know, now that you mention it, I recall noticing some weirdness, but the next time I tried a level it seemed fine. Well, hmm, hopefully I can figure out what the issue is, but I'll be gone for over a week. What if you just turn off the music in the settings? Does it work fine then?

Thanks. Sorry. It seems that this release may have just turned "beta."

Well the game runs fine just as it is, only the sounds playback is not optimal.

I am going to play some longer to see if it disappears or not.
Speak to you over a week or so

Is it music, sfx, or both?

I know that RACE had an issue with my call to initialize the audio at a low rate. When I set it to 44.1KHz it was better. Maybe there's a similar issue with BubbleTrain, but I'm not sure what it's setting it to.

I'll still be around for a day before I leave and I may be online here and there, but not deving. If I get a chance tomorrow, I'll do a quick check to see if there's an obvious easy fix.

Both I am afraid

If you want to try a new executable, this one MAY fix the sound issue. Please let me know if it does or does not. If it does, I'll make a new full release when I return. For now, though, this fix is only the EXE file. Download the http://archive.gp2xwiz.de/cgi-bin/cfiles.cgi?0,0,0,0,9,56 file and then place this over the BubTrain-wiz file.

I played 5 levels. Sound and music seem to be good. Nice port, btw.

Thanks! Was this with the one from yesterday, or the patch I just posted about a couple posts back?

 

[sbock]

I tried it with the new one.

 

[rx_shorty]

Well tried the fix... it goes to black screen and then back to the menu :S
This file should be in the |bin| folder right?

I expected better graphics in 20 megs game This is a question of time I suppose )

Yeah. It's possible that the capitalization is important. Offhand (I can't check here, now), I think it should be "bin/BubTrain-wiz".

I'm no artist. That's for darn sure!

Most of the megabytes come from the background music.

The graphics (and audio) are all skinnable. Please, if you are an artist, feel free to make a new theme. In fact, the game is made so that you could make your own levels with graphics and audio for everyone else to play.

Anyway, it's defintely not a question of time (for me).

Nice port, coincidence has it that only recently I got into it on the GP2X, very fun game.

Browsing through menus with the touchscreen makes a big difference
