I like the new towers ideas. Some stuff reminds me of chess features, but in a different game. In Zelda Dark Link Quest, what I had was some towers that fired a laser if you stood horizontally at the same height or vertically at the same position as the tower on the map for more than two loop iterations.
Thanks DJ
In other news, Source Seekers is now (semi-)compatible with the TI-82! I'm not sure about the program (theta)DEF, but SRCESEEK is compatible!
Be sure to check out the Developer blog to find out new information about the game!

Btw, advertising other calc sites isn't generally good netiquette when you use a project topic on another forum just to lure visitors to your own site. If you want to post about your blog it's fine, but when posting updates about your projects on Omni, if you just tell people to go to your blog to check them out it might make other Omni users think that you have zero interest in contributing to existing sites.

Seems that 123outerme has beaten me in announcing this, but I'm posting anyways.

Having code access, I have been working on a complete TI-82 port; there wasn't anything in the source that would break compatibility besides a lack of effort. I've gotten about one third of it done as of this posting, and I'll be spending the next 72 hours getting the levels ported over. Porting over θDEF, as of 0.8.8.1, is completely feasible. However, I'm waiting to do this until the first several levels are finalized due to the amount of code that would otherwise have to be re-typed in. Additionally, as you can see in the above screenshot of 0.8.8.1, graphscreen text uses a different font, requiring a bit of reorganization of text. But hey, it runs.

Ooh that would definitively be nice. :D Also, by doing this this makes it even easier to port it to the 82 Stats/83 since it also runs 82 games IIRC.

But it already runs on 83, since I did almost all of the bugfixing on my trusty TI-83 Classic. The 82 port is based off of it.

Oh ok I thought you skipped straight to the 82 lol.

I think I tried to port Nemesiat/Illusiat 6 (same game) on the 82 before, but ran into issues due to lack of string support and having fewer pictures.

issues due to lack of string support

I was quite worried about this when I began the porting process, but despite being a TI-84+CSE project the only real issue I've run across is the lack of lists to write save data to.

Hey, if it's 82 & up, does it work on a 89? :P

EDIT: 200th post! :3

I am announcing that I will make another version of Source-Seekers once I have all of the game information. I plan for it to also be cross-compatible with the 84+ and +C (not sure about the regular 83, though). I already have the text engine done.

There is also a download for my test program. It displays "THE QUICK BROWN FOX, JUMPED OVER THE LAZY DOG." And it should also work on the +C.

When I know everything that's going into the game, I'll get to levels and stuff.
Did you know that "Ammonia Gas" rearranged is "As Omnimaga"?

Just so all you non-testers can gauge our progress, we recently crossed the 0.9 threshold! Expect this game some time next week; at the latest, June 1.

Oooh... I wonder if I could get a 84-style BASIC to Nspire BASIC conversion header working in M4... :)
