-> gameplay help in the readme, but I think the biggest part of this game doesn't need to be described very detailed - just try it and you will see...
:D
Screenz (version 1.4):
Status: Version 1.5 is done.
I'm open for new ideas, criticism and tips.
Currently working on: see Readme-file
(The download is included as an attachement!)

! does the new version use xLIB?
Post by: lolje on April 23, 2006, 08:51:00 am
( With xlib it would be a bit faster and it would have more graphical
effects - but i did not want to loose the benefit of only sending one single file to the calc.)
Age of culture is mirage OS compatibel and to save a lot of RAM I would reccomend to use it with mirage os (then you can archive it). The game list will be created automatically and without any error :)
This is one of the error-freest games I made, but please make sure that you don't have pic0 or string0 archived, because they're temporary needed in the game.
On the whole I really can say this game is very 'clean' . :)

Post by: shadow on April 23, 2006, 12:36:00 pm
have any screenies? everyone loves screenies!!!
i think that the old xlib works with the mirage......i think
i dont want to try it though cause last week i was messing around with codex and my screen with really deep blue, (deeper than the max contrast and blue) and in the corners there was a line that went striaght up/down
so i panicked and started pressing buttoms and evenutaly i just took out the batteries, but the blue lines in the corner took like 5 mins 2 go away......
but my calcs fine now :D
that or it could just be me :blink:

AOC looks like the next ground-breaking pure basic game, from everything I've heard and seen. I only tried the first demo. (It was hard keeping up with all the fast progress so I didn't.)
Good luck with this, I hope its fun!

Post by: lolje on April 25, 2006, 10:32:00 pm
The game is PURE basic. NO Asm library used - the sprites I use for the background objects are 8*6; I 'simulate' the home screen on the graph screen. They're saved in the Matrix [A], which is being created when drawing the graphix and deleted after the operation.
Have fun!

(Towers only take part when you ARE attacked ) are being added together so your whole army has one attack value and one defence value.
The attacking army begins. He attacks - the program uses this therm:
Attack(Attacker) - Defence (Defender) = damage (defender)
If damage (defender) < 1 : 1-> damage (defender)
Great news - v1.5 is done. I'll release it tomorrow or *when you're lucky* today ;)

lol - that's the great thing about this game; it's pure basic!
That means you don't need any shell or asm-library to run it
plus it has only ONE FILE so lazy people (like me for example^^) are lucky
Mirage OS is recommended because you can also open it while having it archived (which is quite useful - the game is not very small) and it's also saved when its archived.
but you don't need mirage :)

I found out (with the help of xLIB: real(14 ) that it wastes nearly 200 bytes everytime you just open the main-building and then leave...holy shit - Does anyone know the reason!?
maybe it's the long if-statements e.g.
If G=92:Then:*Huge Code*:End
??????
However, I'll try to fix that - you can look forward to a more bug-free game without memory-errors (In mirage it would just turn off :(
)btw I'm just integrating some research-stuff :)

The bad news:
1. I can't remove the memory-eating points in the game
2. The game is already so big that I won't be able to add the Story to it without slowing it down...
The good news:
1. I started coding the next edition 'Age of culture II' !!! It will use xlib and my new programming-skills (which got better since Age of culture I !) - so that means in general that I will write a completely new Age of culture with the title 'Age of culture II' and it will be faster and include more and better stuff while being probably even smaller as the original!!! I'll also avoid creating memory-leeks by checking it everytime I integrated something new.
So a new, faster, better, and smaller Age of culture with more stuff
(I will integrate the story I got from 'Dragon Lance!) awaits you!
The only thing you have to do is (like everytime :rolleyes:
): waiting.2. Age of culture I v1.5 will maybe soon be available as an Application!

Just scroll throug the forum.
Oh and don't worry if I can get tis done ;)
with xlib it'll run (like I already said) probably much faster without any problems. It's gonna be easier as Age of culture I.Thx for your all interests

sry that I haven't gotten around yet. Have to do:
1. school (final spurts before teh holidays!!!!)
2. train my poor voice so I can sing with some friends tis weekend
3. burn my school records for this year :evil:
so I'll work on the screen in between these things ^_^
Post by: lolje on July 18, 2006, 06:01:00 am
So and for the people which are interested in Age of culture II, I have a little present: The very first demo!
Well, actually it's just the cursor-engine and the graphical interface, but you see how the game probably will look like - that's better than nothing, isn't it?
The group file is attached.
Make sure that you have installed xLIB.
