I'm taking a break for a couple of days from working on Realms of Quest III because I'll be playing with my brand new MEGA CART :)

Ah, not quite. Foreground, and the multicolour source %01 (which is the same as the exterior border colour) can only use the first 8 colours, while the background and auxiliary colour do have all 16 colours available. That's true, but thanks for providing the elaborate explanation to everyone else ...

I actually really like that throne (big Telengard fan!). Thanks! I'm a big fan of Telengard as well. In fact, RofQ1, Dunjon 1+2 and RofQ2 adapt many elements of that game (especially the single-character and generic class aspect of it). Telengard is one of those games that is a dungeon crawler that...

and the 3d look you got going on, reminds me very much of my fav. game of all time... Treasure of Tarmin All right then, I'll keep posting updates as I get 'em! Treasure of Tarmin? I have a lot to live up to, for certain. In the dunjons, you can encounter 'jewel-encrusted thrones' and water fountai...

However, starting a thread like this may encourage me to produce longer games. I've always wanted to do a game that requires memory expansion even though it would go against my signature style. I'm also really inspired by this thread. I think several games should be going on at once in discussion. ...

Are you guys getting bored of my posting updates? I think I would as I wait for me to finally release the damn thing ;) But believe me, I'm working several hours a day on this game. And I'm having a lot of fun doing it -- which is why whenever I reach a new mini-milestone, I enthusiastically post an...

After several hours and 1400 bytes later or so, the 3D dunjon view (+ being able to move around in it) is finished. http://img387.imageshack.us/img387/3420/rq3.jpg The mazes will be generated using a quasi-shift register with an EOR based on the position when the player first enters the dunjon from ...

Here's another sexy swingin' screenshot of what I am working on right now: http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/3420/rq3.jpg I'm not completely done the routines that display the 3D perspective multicolor dunjon graphics, but this will give you an idea how it will look like. It will work the same way ...

This beautiful temptation will ruin many a marriage I fear. :lol: Heh... thanks. I sent some screenshots to a friend of mine and he replied "They're pretty damn sexy". I've also put off doing things regarding the house because of the amount of time I spend working on this game as well, lol.

Major breakthrough today--I programmed the routines that let the player buy a ship (for 8000 GP) and board, exit and move around in said ship:

And I did it all under 360 bytes!!!! :)

And here is version 3 of the splash title screen: http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/3420/rq3.jpg This may or may not change again in the future. Yellow and red logo was already used in RofQ1, so this one gives it a more icy, metallic look. The tagline "THE CLASSIC RPG" is not meant to giv...

Going through my earlier comments in this thread (I do procrastinate and change my mind a lot), I found a basic project timeline that I typed out: 1. Party, character and inventory management 2. Graphics 3. World map + displaying the map 4. Dunjons + displaying them in 3D using wireframe graphics 5....

Amazing. The castle looks awesome! I am forever influenced by Compute type-ins. Every game I make is targeted at a Computer reader. I admit I also do not like the smiley face for this game, but your solution of giving the player a choice is a great idea! Thanks for the compliments (and to you saehn...

One more thing guys... I've also decided to change the theme and tone of the game to make it more appealing to the children, for the sake of the children. For example, in order to get kids interested in retro gaming and the VIC-20, I'll remove references to demons, dragons and other violent monsters...
