Hi Dennis! > I'm still adding to good ole Climber Excellent! > I've added an enhanced selection with... Excellent²! > I have about 350 bytes of ROM and 35 bytes of RAM left > so these additions will depend on what will fit. Ok, so I'd put your Todos in that order: >Scheduled additions... >1) Bonus pickup items >2) Better vertical animation >4) Demo mode >3) Title screen music Have you thought of *programming* the music? Sort of like the background noice in Star Ship? Then you could get away with very few bytes. Would be no good *music*, but might simulate the noice of building a skyscraper ;-) Ok, so here's my feedback: - There's a bug in Z26 when starting straight into the enhanced mode. All girders then build one straight vertical line. - Joystick up/down should select options in the title screen as well. - The climbers walk noices seem pitched to high and are too loud. You should find better fitting ones and reduce their volume. - Changing the girder direction with the fire button is nice. How about another difficulty option/variant where pressing the fire button speeds up the Climber? - The game starts off too slow. It's fine in the training mode, but the normal and enhanced modes should probably already start with what is currently the third level. - Instead of bonus items to pick up, you could also have additional obstacles falling off vertically from the structure like bricks. Maybe this'd help make a nicer difficulty instead of just relying on speeding up the game in later levels. - If you'd start the levels in the enhanced variant in "pause", you could display the level number and the current score until the player starts the action with beginning to move. - Another suggestion for the switches: Since in the enhanced mode the walls never disappear, but just wrap around, it'd be nice if there was an option where the player could do that as well.
