[XVicarious]

Ah runer112, that is true. I forgot about that.

edit, which my game will have tons of tiles in a row, but this isn't my game. but this game appears to have same tiles in a row as well. think of the ground.

nib{V*8+H+(GDB0*2)}

nib{V*4+GDB0*2+H}

There ya' go.

With nibbles you could simply make each run-length pair one byte, or two complimentary nibbles instead of one byte and then another.  For now though, stick with what you're comfortable using.

Question: for the Axe Parser contest, are we allowed to use appvars? Kind of a silly question, but you can never be too sure. I would probably cry if I had to hard-code the levels in.

Yup.   There's no harm in using appvars.

Thank you

Really? I would kill myself if I had to use appvars. Tricky little blighters.
Also, check the title of the thread, i think it's "Spanky" instead of "Spacky?" Kind of a disturbing name, but w/e ^^

[LincolnB]

@leafiness0 - No, I did that on purpose. You'll see why if you play the game (when it comes out, that is)

[LincolnB]

Game Complete. Check out the first page of this post for screenshots.

You are aware that it is against contest rules to provide a download link to your contest entry prior to the deadline of 1 AM on July 16th, correct?

[LincolnB]

Oops! Forgot about that, it's going down until tommorrow.

[TsukasaZX]

Thank you kindly, buttsfredkin.

Erm..... This may pose a secondary problem, friend? http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/440/44082.html

[LincolnB]

Oops again.

*buttsfredkin gives himself a spanking

I'll pm you about it, because I'm newb to ti-calc.org (and am not entirely sure how to take links from there)

Spacky Emprise is now available for download in the Omnimaga downloads section. The levels are now half the size that they were, 12000 bytes total instead of 24000, but other than that, it’s exactly the same as before.

By the way this was pretty nice, although pretty hard with the enemies falling. I will check out the 2nd game soon. *hopes it has better jumping physics *
