Hmm, mind if I post a pic of the real calc? That's really the only way I can get shots right now since I don't have a cable anymore.

Oh I think he meant a fake screenshot, drawn in Paint or something, not a capture from the calc/program. Otherwise a pic of the calc and the game can do, I guess, as long as you resize it down :P

UPDATE:

Got some sprites done, and firing too. Bullets still wrap around the screen, but that should be an easy fix. And on a related note, bullets mean that I've already set up the engine for enemies and their bullets as well (they're all saved in one big array that basically holds anything that moves).

And you can't tell from the screenshot (since I haven't actually gotten around to make it work), but everything I've done so far already takes scrolling into account. I just have to get motivated to add that bit in :D

I noticed that the right part of the screen seems to be lacking greyscale o.O Heh it looks awesome so far though ^^ Does the character seem to change shape in different positions?

@BB in some instances in the screenie the char aims his gun downward(or so it appears) and I think when the char appears more compressed he's supposed to be crouching(maybe?). The random non grayscale platform off to the side does look kinda odd tho.

Nice so far! I love the look of it. The character seems to look a bit weird from time to time, though, (like if he was crouching into a ball), is it when he's actually crouching? You could maybe add a pixel on the side for the gun. I can't wait to see more updates on this. :)

Weird, the grayscale works perfectly fine on my calc... I suck at setting Wabbit options, though ;D

Oh, that's because after the jump, he's still in the jumping position. I still haven't fixed that yet.

Thanks, I might lengthen the gun later. It's 7x8 now, anyway.

Nice screenie, great, you even made his crazy jump work, how pleasant.

Grayscale? Can I have it in a regular ti nspire w/ 84+ keypad?

EDIT: Yay bullets!

Are the non-grayscale platforms to the right caused by bad WabbitEmu settings, by the way? Also what will you put on the empty parts of the screen?

Yeah, they are. On my calc they're equally gray.

As for the empty parts, I'm thinking of moving it to the middle, putting a border on the left and right, and adding the stats on top. Might get messy, though x.x

I haven't even decided how I'm going to do scrolling: Horizontal - or redraw every tile?
