Update Retrobattle

[Magic Sam]

Hi all,

Just to let you know I'm still working on this one from time to time:

- I'll recompile the game with debugging symbols as soon as next Code::Blocks version is ready.

- I have started to work on data/sfx/test.wav: the file is now 44 khz and volume is much higher (that tune is barely audible right now...)

- I'll try to mute the F key, as it conflicts with notaz' improved SDL

Regarding key mapping, do you like it as it is now, or would you prefer further customization of the controls ? E.g:

D-pad: move
(X): jump
(B): fire
(A): pause
(Y): change key bindings at the main screen
[START] : enter
[SELECT] : quit

Thanks for your input

Cheers, Magic Sam

Hi all,

I have just submitted a new version to the Repo (build #8):

Changelog:

New in build #8

- Recompiled with @ptitSeb 's latest beta Code::Blocks
- Debug symbols are ON (they were already ON anyway)
- data/sfx/test.wav: the file is now 44 khz and volume is much higher (Thanks @Farox for mhWaveEdit ! That tune was barely audible before...)

Cheers, Magic Sam

Cool
Now you should change the title of this thread...no more looking for a packager.

Hi all !

Lol, i feel spied on now, I just quickly tried the game, no serious attempt yet.

No harm intended

On a side note, I nearly beat my own hiscore this afternoon: I reached level 11 with 5 lives (!!!) and ~60k points. Then, I just played like an arse and lost all my lives on that very level...

Cheers, Magic Sam

 

[Magic Sam]

Hi all

Damn, so close again !!! Level 13 with 73k points

I guess I was lucky the day I reached 79k points...

Hi all !

@levi reclaimed the 2nd position on the online ranking, with @Eight Bit close behind in 3rd position !

@turbochop fell down from the podium ! @atari_afternoon , DarthBob and @LoopStar are still trailing behind...

That suspense is killing me

Cheers, Magic Sam

 

[levi]

Yeah, I thought I'd better give this a proper go. My previous score was basically just me testing that the game worked!

 

[Magic Sam]

Hi all

I finally beat my own hiscore, about time ! 80470 points, lost in level 13

@Eight Bit is 2nd, with @levi close behind in 3rd position !

Will @turbochop manage to get back onto the podium ?

Cheers, Magic Sam

Hi all

I just created a new issue on github:

https://github.com/remar/retro/issues/1

Cheers, Magic Sam

Hah, issue 1! I only have a vague recollection of playing this, and these days my Pandora is still sadly out of action. But it's good to have the author on board now, even if only on github. Looking forward to getting back on this when my Pyra arrives!
