Looking good!
u/Dream of Omnimaga March 18, 2015, 02:45:18 AM
Thanks. :D

By the way, fun fact: the 6th dungeon in this game is in reference to Illusiat 1 back when it was called Labyrinthe des Illusions in August 2001. Back then the launch program was called LABYPROG.8xp. So as a tribute to Illusiat 1, the Mana Force dungeon was named Labyprog and the map is almost identical to the first floor of the Illusiat 1/LdI dungeon. This is also partly why the dungeon colors look like TI-83+ colors.

The only way to exit is to save, quit then reload, and it has no boss.

That was done days ago, but here is how the last magic spell (with the 4th job equipped) looks like:



In the original game, all it was was For(Z,1,8:Output(1,1,"8888888888888888":For(Theta,0,50:End:End:Clrhome >.<.

I really need to add some balancing and perhaps some elemental properties based on dungeons for some enemies and  bosses, though, as well as defense, so that at level 99 you won't end up with half of the spells causing 9999 damage.

Oh wow that looks sick. :D

Super cool. Is the color scrolling able to be sped up though?
u/Dream of Omnimaga March 21, 2015, 01:02:43 AM
Thanks, and sadly nope, that's how slow the CSE LCD refresh rate gets when you update the entire screen. D: Even in ASM 4 FPS is the max.
u/CKH4 March 21, 2015, 01:08:04 AM
Oh :(. Hopefully it'll be fully compatible with the CE so that it may be faster.
u/Snektron March 21, 2015, 12:22:54 PM
Whoa that looks awesome :D
u/Duke "Tape" Eiyeron March 21, 2015, 12:24:43 PM
I really like the colored columns in the screenshot!
u/Snektron March 21, 2015, 12:29:07 PM
Yeah me too, though the whole spell looks awesome (and very powerfull :P)

it won't but I could always do a remake. :)

You don't think that there will be xLIBCE? :(
u/Snektron March 21, 2015, 02:37:52 PM
Well if TI decides that devs can't make apps, it also means no hooks, and xLIB or similar libs use those hooks :/
u/CKH4 March 21, 2015, 02:52:13 PM
I assume that they'll just be more strict with their apps. It'd be a major mistake IMO if they were to seriously limit development.
u/Snektron March 21, 2015, 02:53:09 PM
Well, thats TI i guess :/
