Wal-Rush! NES

Maybe if CW url is in the title we could try to get your game on limited edition cartridges and get them sold at La Planque Jeux Vidéo

Don't you worry, the final game will have CW branding

I was actually thinking of maybe, once this is finished, making carts of them and selling them at my local Mega Media Xchange.

I would just need to find a legit place that still produces repro carts. I think there were some that closed down online when the guys got bored of it. It would be nice if some guy charged $30 including getting some LJN or sports cart shipped to him so you could sell the carts for $40-60.

Anyway I'm gonna give the game a try later

Bump.

This game now has MUSIC! Using a library called FamiTone2, I was able to make a song in FamiTracker and put it into the game. It even correctly detects whether or not you're using an NTSC or PAL system

. (Dendy, however, has correct pitch, but slightly slower tempo.) As it stands now, it loops forever, but I'll be changing that soon enough.

Download attached.

Cool, I'll watch and listen once home

EDIT: I like it. You should add clouds ^^

EDIT: I tried this on emulator @JWinslow23 and it runs very smoothly. You should increase movement speed to be closer to the Atari version, tho.

I think @JWinslow23 canceled this project (I forgot the reason) but I would definitively love if he eventually changed his mind D:

iird it was problems with the graphics timing cuz it was flickering like crazy or something like that...
really sad about it tho...

but I guess we'll have to accept his decicion

u/Dream of Omnimaga May 25, 2017, 03:58:01 AM

Yeah true. I hope he can find a solution or some help on some NES dev forum and change his mind in the future.

@JWinslow23, is it true that you stopped working on it ?
If so then it is SAD !!!!

I do wonder what language you used to make Wal-Rush NES : Family Basic ? C with CC65 ? Assembly ?

u/JWinslow23 May 25, 2017, 03:13:11 PM

It's on indefinite hold, until I can figure out a good way to structure my program so that no graphical glitches can happen (which they do often in the current demo

).
