It seems like something I'd get in trouble for playing during math class. Jk, I make sure I don't get caught  8) Looks fantastic though  :thumbsup:

Hahah, thank you!

DO NOT READ THIS UNLESS YOU ARE A CONTEST MODERATOR
That binary I posted is not of my Walrii program, in any prototype, beta, or final form or otherwise. It is a TI-BASIC program that has these contents:

ClrHome:Disp "Are you kidding?","You think I'd","disqualify my","entry this early","on? No way! :P

I have broken no rules. I just had a little fun :P

I'm glad that this program is fake and not from the real contest entry <_<

Also this looks nice so far. I was worried about the motion blur making anything hard to see, but it doesn't seem too bad. Does it flicker a lot on the real machine?

Hey, don't give me that look! Gah :banghead:

And thanks. It actually does flicker very noticeably (not enough to ruin the gray effect, but enough for you to see that it's flashing two images over and over). I might as well make this 15MHz only. :-\

I haven't seen anything posted here in a while, but I'm just curious as to how the project is going? Any optimizations that made it faster? Or any new features?

It depends. If the flicker isn't that much worse than in Desolate then I think it should be fine. Even Reuben-BASIC-like flicker (when it ran at 15 MHz) would be tolerable, but with scrolling it would not be ideal. 15 MHz is fine for the contest.

Hey guys, sorry I haven't posted progress, but the truth is, life and procrastination got in the way :P

Here's the latest screenie, showing a new powerup in the form of a :thumbsup:
u/Dream of Omnimaga January 03, 2016, 02:31:44 AM
I like the result, so far. Also interesting that Walrii grows in size in this game :P
u/alexgt January 03, 2016, 03:42:29 AM
Nice! I like the power up ;). When will you have batteries for your calc ???
u/novenary January 03, 2016, 11:53:58 AM
Oh my, a flappy game. You are evil. Nice job at any rate. :)
u/alexgt January 03, 2016, 04:13:42 PM
Well it definitely doesn't look as hard as flappy bird :P
u/novenary January 04, 2016, 03:01:13 PM
Yeah indeed, but it does look fairly similar. :P
u/alexgt January 04, 2016, 04:37:52 PM
The difference is that it has WALRII's ^.^
