My first 6502 is finished! It's a 10 minute message from CommodoreBlog, so you don't have to watch all of it if you don't want to, but I thought you'd like to see what you've been helping with. 0:00 Sample playback + animated bitmap + split scroller + tune ~3:40 bouncing scroller + parallax scroller + animated / static background + tune 2 ~8:30 scrolling bitmap snow effect (and tune1 again, I ran out of time )
I would add: the scroller is smoother irl, I think there is some camera / tv / youtube frame sync in the video and the "Christmas is awesome" is cycling colours but that's not obvious either
I know maybe it's not the most difficult thing possible, but I thank you for your help in getting me to a finished program, and happy xmas to you all.
Re: My first 6502 is finished! @Csabo: Or even worse, he has finished his first 6502 and now he is out there looking for the next victim. Run 6502s, run!
As a member of the site, you can add and edit programs! To add a program: Home | Admin page | Programs | New. Fill out the fields (at least name and program type - Demo in this case), then Save. This creates the program record. Each program's page has an "[ Upload PRG file or screenshot ]", you can use that to upload the PRG file. You can even add the news announcement if you like! (Or use the site uploader feature, or email me the PRG file, I'll be happy to add it.)
Quick question: you mention "CIA is back" in the scrolltext. There was a CIA group on Plus/4, and dozens with this handle on C64. Are you referencing any of those?
Re: My first 6502 is finished! yeah, its the same cia. Sarah (commodoreblog) did the message - im just the code monkey :) I don't personally know any of the others, or their output really. I'm not an old scener.. I think shes gonna put it on pouet as a cia release. I'm a hardware guy really, the coding was a necessary accident for some spectrum stuff I did last year and I kinda enjoyed it. In fact I only came on here cos I was trying to make a +4 cartridge and got side tracked....
Re: My first 6502 is finished! @Fuzzweed Thank you for the message, Christmas is coming!
I really liked the effect on the text message, and the third part's moving coins in the background was a nice touch too.
Yeah, I planned to make a Christmas PETSCII this year but I was not in the mood. No snow, no such music can be played at home... Seems your video message could be the start to start some Christmas this year! Thanks!
Re: My first 6502 is finished! @csabo oh. I thought you meant lots of releases not lots of groups. I dunno then. There is *a* cia but I don't know which it is.
Re: My first 6502 is finished! @Fuzzweed if I could suggest, the 64K type that you assigned on Pouët refers to PC 64kB limited demos, it doesn't indicate the specific memory usage like the 64K that you assign here to affirm that your demo runs on a 64kB configurated system.
My first 6502 is finished!
