Super Mario 84

A platformer (especially if it's a Mario game) doesn't need complex physics, only simple gravity so it should be fairly trivial to implement. No need for Zedd.

Noooo! Physics are what make Mario games fun! I didn't like Sam Head's Mario game for exactly that reason, the physics are terrible. Please try to make good physics.

^^
Also, I'm not using Zedd or anything like that for this.

Partial Redraw is done, only some minor drawing glitches are left. I'm ready to post screenshots, but I don't have access to a computer to take screenshots with. I may take a video of it running on my calculator, if I can't get access to a computer soon.

I'm buying some really good laptop for gaming and school, because right now, I am using something made in 2006. Only 2GB of ram and a HORRIBLE GPU and CPU.

I hope you get access to a computer soon D:. I can't wait for screenshots and I'm glad this is coming along nicely

The glitches with the enemies don't happen on calculator. For some reason they occur in wabbit emu.

SCREENSHOTS!

Looks nice! Please tell me those aren't the final physics though...

Of course not lol This is supposed to feel like a mario game

Lol

Is it so slow because you slowed it down or because it's too slow ?

(no offense meant, it looks nice so far besides that and the physics).

annoyingcalc · October 23, 2015, 04:11:42 AM

The biggest slowdown is that I have somethings completely redraw the map. I will be adding a simple function to draw the tile at a certain position to fix this.
Example of this is when an enemy falls upside down off the screen, the blocks behind him need to be redrawn.

Mario's physics have a bit to do with it as well

I had to write my own horizontal scrolling routines in assembly to overcome the speed issues. The vertical scrolling routines that come with Axe are perfectly fine though.

Looks good so far. I wonder if you could try making an animated screenshot in jsTIfied? Also I think the pipes top should be a bit larger in height and perhaps some gradient added to pipes.

annoyingcalc · October 23, 2015, 02:16:35 PM

I will change the pipe sprites when I get a chance.
