[PRIZM & nspire] Work-in-progress RPG
« on: February 22, 2012, 07:12:01 pm »
I'm trying to get into PRIZM programming (and C programming in general), and with the help of libfxcg I've made some progress on a small RPG.

I designed a mock-up HUD to see how I could fill the screen, which could and will change eventually.





Here's me testing both map-drawing and collision-detection.

Wow, this looks really nice! May I ask how you figured out the Prizm system calls and such? I know C and have the compiler set up, but I don't know how to make stuff for the prizm

Cemetech has a small but active Prizm dev community with a lot of useful information. The mini-SDK also comes with a library that contains access to whatever syscalls are known, as well as some other useful functions.

Looks nice so far. Glad you joined Prizm development. I assume to the right you will have HP, MP, LV like in Illusiat 6 and 7? Also would it be turn-based like FF or more action-based like Zelda?

I was thinking of Ultima IV when doing the HUD:



but with more info to fit the screen. It's very possible that it'll be turn-based, but I don't know if it'll be on a separate battle screen or not.

My idea concerning the inventory is that keys on the keypad will correspond to items in the boxes like so:

7 8 9
4 5 6
1 2 3
0 . (EXP)

So you can hit one of those to quickly select an item; I could then make other buttons on the keypad as use, wear, drop, etc. keys.

Ultima was the first thing that came to mind when your screenie loaded up. It looks really old school. ^^

That looks quite nice for a calculator. I think it has lots of potential. You can formulate a great story with multiple tiers of great items to buy and sell and etc. And the graphics would be great!

The Ultima style HUD would be nice indeed. As for Nemesiat AKA Illusiat 6 this is what I meant by the way (first image):



The second one was a mockup of a possible Nemesiat xLIB remake back in 2008, but the HUD was much smaller.

Using (abusing) the C pre-processor, the source code now compiles for the Nspire CX:

Added scrolling





I can probably attempt the battle-system now.

Awesome. Glad to see more progress. :) What is the bottom area btw? Will the first be for example info messages+NPC convos and the second to enter commands?

Also moved out of sub-forum per your request.
