Not much to show, mostly code changes.
But added more rooms. Looks more and more like a real game.

Thank you.
Yes, can be hard to work on such projects. But my secret - need to work everyday on it, even if very little time.

Complete done door system, with keys and everything.
Rooms also remember, which doors to open, which powerups to spawn and etc.

Yes, finally done room load and scroll in every direction.
It was a bit tricky to do on the current NES mapper (MMC1), but i done it.

Finally made status bar and game pickups, health, weapon power up and coins included.
Looks like a real game now.
Next up - room scrolls.

Yes, i'm working with really good artist.

Orion's constellation? Lol, i do not know, not my name idea.

Done same enemy spawn system. Working nice.
Phew, but still a lot of work to do.

Added new sprites and enemy types.
Palettes not final and just for test.

Second enemy ready for duty. Implemented his behaviour and enemy bullets.
Enemy Tank moves a bit like octorok in Zelda 1, lol.

Finally done some shooting action.
It looks more like a real game now. Nice.

Now need to write tank enemy AI.
And most complex things will be done I think.

I love games like this, suprisingly few well done games of its type on the NES as it is, so it's a great opportunity to seize. Definitely digging the graphical style! You might want to check the collision detection with the background though :) It's very easy to walk through the walls just by runni...

Sumez, you are right, a bug!
Thanks, but I know the problem, and I thought I fixed it.

You can go through wall only if some walking things left.
Can you walk through wall if only 2 tanks on the screen?

Thanks for comments.

Yes, maybe some palettes will be changed, but not now, first need to code more important things and after it fine tune little details.

And no, haha, it isn't related to LJN game by any means.

Hi everyone, this is my little Zelda 1 like shooter project. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4f_7lGnDoA Most of game engine almost done (sprite engine, collisions, animations, sprite flicker, etc). Now just need to find time and finish it all to make real game. Need to be done: Bullets Tank AI GUI ...
