i tried writing out my codes, but then again, I changed the code so frequently that the writing got so messy I couldn't read it... :P
Lol, that is why I write at the top 'outdated xx/xx/xx' and write it out on a new page :p
That's pretty awesome!  (I just print out a changed page, and then write on it, but I think your method is a lot cooler!)

I'm glad Xcopy works nice, as I'll use it for Elmgon. :D

* Builderboy sighs and hangs his head *

Its not dead, defnitely never ever going to abandon this project.  But for now, progress has been officially halted :( After having worked on this project for about a year now, I am getting kind of weary of working on one main project (besides all those small ones that i sometimes pop off in a day or two) and running out of steam.  I try to program and go nowhere.  The inspiration is just now there, you know? 

I've had times like this before on big projects, and the only solution is to move on for now...  rest assured i will return.

ouch, I am getting a bit worried now x.x

I hope you get motivation back. I would hate if this died completly, because I saw so many projects die this way. In any case, are you gonna release the source if it dies? Many people leave without even releasing what they got x.x

I have been looking forward for this for so long. I understand the feeling, though.

I definitely will release the source if it dies (which it wont :P)

But yeah, i was reluctant to officially halt progress on this since i know how much everybody has been looking forward to it :(

usually the best idea is to only focus on one project at a time. Calc84 will work on gbc4nspire, then a few weeks on 89 emu, then other stuff, not all 3 at once. But yeah a lot of ppl are looking forward for it, plus whenever "dual layer ASCII" is mentionned, this game is cited as example :P

Most likely i will be working on my single new project for now.

I know how you feel.  I can't wait for anything you code, so as long as you're still coding, I'm happy. ;D
I do still want Serenity, though.

It's tough to program just one project at a time.  I have a bunch of almost unmentioned projects floating around.  One of them I hadn't worked on since October/November just got ungrouped on Saturday, and work has resumed on Gravity Dude.  I won't say much until I post about it (maybe this week), but it is even based off of one of the great Builderboy's games. :)

Note before DJ asks:  Elmgon's storyline is being planned now, so since I am not coding on it I am letting myself code on another project. :)

*trevmeister66 is sad to see this halted.

Hopefully you find some inspiration and work on this soon. I really like what you've done with simple dual layer ascii.

Halting during some time will certainly bring fresh new motivation and ideas. Do something fun meanwhile. :P

Portal X looks sweet and all, but I hope you return to this soon. I'm really looking forward too seeing this project completed! =)

Me too, I would hate to see this die :(. Plus it shows how far you can take graphical BASIC games without any ASM help to draw the graphics and main engine
