Subject: Re: [stella] Pressure Gauge 2 --- too boring? From: "Chris Pepin" <cpepin1@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 22 Jan 2000 16:29:00 EST |
Hello all.
Judging by the lack of response to the posting of PG2, should I infer that PG2 is too boring? I had tested it with some friends here in Madison, and they thought it was better in premise and playability than the first Pressure Gauge. Also, it is one of the few rare 4-player at once games for Atari 2600, and one of 2 4-player games where it's every person for themself, with no computer player. That could also be a reason for the lack of response, as many people on this list may not have the means to round up 3 other Atari fanatics in order to test a multiplayer game. I understand that the main purpose of this list is to learn about Stella programming, and not to beta-test other people's projects, but I think this game is actually pretty fun. Plus, PG2 has pretty much been beta-tested to its limit. Everything should work ok, so functionality aspects need not be tested, only the "fun factor". Don't forget, this is more fun on a real VCS than an emulator. PG2 should be 100% compatible with makewav, so it is entirely Superchargeable.
If it's the lack of computer players, should I write an AI scheme?
If it's really that bad, I could start again from scratch...
