I would be very interested in a report on the MSX2/2+ game Inferno.

When it's released. Maybe not even then because I only cover free stuff.
In other news, it's coming along...3 levels are built, not complete tho. Need to implement an extra enemy type and other things.

Yeah I try to keep them very short otherwise people tend to just click off somewhere else or not watch at all. Besides, all you need are the basics and some video otherwise it's giving away too much.

He's done a really nice job on that one. Especially for a machine without a hardware scroll!

That's a considerable amount of data for a software sprite-draw on a 4MHz Z80.

Back in the day, he'd have sold that off to a publisher in no time!  :wink:

I played a literal ass ton (you decide what that adds up to) of Bruce Lee on the C64.  Definitely gonna check out that vid, thanks!

Darned C64 owners. I played it on my Atari 400, the one with the worst keyboard ever released on a home computer!  :wink:

It was a great game, good to hear that someone chose to port it.  :)

I still have Bruce Lee on the original C-64 5 1/4" floppy from 1984... and it still works! The resilience of old magnetic storage media is amazing. Who ever thought these things would last all this time?

But yeah, I played Bruce Lee to death back in the day, to the point that I could easily run through it without losing a single life. I can still hear the opening theme music in my head, lol.

Once we realized a second player could take control of the fat green dude, even more fun was had.  :dance:

We're like cockroaches!  (With a bunch of good games.)  I would have loved an Atari computer growing up, too.  Never had the pleasure though.

I still have a number of my C64 games, too.  One of them actually failed back in the day, though, like disk 4 of Pool of Radiance.  I got so far only to have an unreadable disk....

Bruce Lee was a ton of fun though, for sure.  I think that was one of the games on the C64 I could consistently finish, along with impossible mission.  Why was the sumo guy green anyway?  Did he have a bad lunch?
