> >How do I get a copy of Doom for my Atari 2600? > Write it :) curious.. what do you think is the closest the 2600 could come to doom? i tried coding for the 2600 a week or so ago.. i found that writing games like combat is easier than most documentation lead me to expect, but.. even with source available, i can't figure out how to write games with several sprites per line, or high resolution graphics (for example, the "retroware" and "okie dokie" graphics in okie dokie). i would think some sort of chunky 3d game could be implemented, drawing the image in the playfield, possibly using sprites to smooth it out. -- pf / green grapes / xantis "The PowerPC is something that should be shown to small children when they have been very bad." --Linus Torvalds -- 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
