Subject: [stella] your opinion... From: Piero Cavina <p.cavina@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 26 Aug 1997 17:14:22 +0100 |
You may have noticed that if you run out of bombs in the Boss phase of my game (Oystron?! mmmhhhh...), then you're condemned to death (or suicide!), since the Boss will keep coming out and you won't be able to kill it. Maybe most people would find that frustrating, so I was thinking if it could be a good idea to give the player a free bomb if he dies during the Boss phase with zero bombs left. What do you think? BTW... Did I say that the last version I've sent to the list was to be final? :) Well, I'm still optimizing and using those precious bytes to add some fancy features... now there are glowing crystals (pearls?), the score will glow too for some seconds when you get points, but above all I've added a very cool playfield-based effect when enemies or asteroids appear! Can't describe it, it must be seen. I've had to dig in the kernel again, but it was very worth doing. Please wait until the end of the week... :-) Ciao, P. -- Archives updated once/day at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsubscribing and other info at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/stella.html
