Interesting to see that discussion made you think about the issue a bit more as well. I figured you guys would know best when it comes to objects modifying one anothers' positions. I haven't done this yet, but I thought about it some more since we talked about it. I would think you would need to tre...

Am I correct in assuming that not-running is not an option? ...if so, I have a simple title suggestion: "Endless Gunner". I like it. (Un)Fortunately, in this game, you can also stand. Even while not gunning. Gun_Standing_Idle.png The game is intended to take inspiration from, and parody K...

I figured out the issue with this one. It's pretty small and wouldn't actually be visible from just the Famitracker file. It had to do with the linker which references the files containing song data as well as the one containing GGsound constants. It had the include for the DPCM file commented out, ...

I get the impression that movies are his real passion, and he'd like to have as much of a voice in film fandom as he does for games. What I felt was essentially the overarching point that he doesn't think it looks good so he won't see it. And I tend to agree that a lot of people won't do the same, o...

Old habits die hard :( Was this just a terminology error? I can be bad with that too and I wouldn't fault somebody for a mistake. Did you just mean essentially discreet 64KB Action 53 compatible mapper when you said NROM? In the beginning I went from this, from the 2014 rules: Mapper 28 compatible ...

I thought that it had been pretty clear that the categories would be pretty much identical to the 2014 rules. Here are a few sources of the confusion as to why people would believe that NROM specifically is the only mapper that's allowed for the main category: I think that two categories would be g...

That would encourage some people to trim games to fin in NROMs to get the bigger prizes. Those are the categories. I thought the categories were: 1. N...

I proposed cash prizes of: $512, $256, $128, $64, $...... for the main category and $128, $64, $32 for the anything goes category. We'd like some feedback on these suggestions. So am I understanding correctly that what is understood as the "main category" is NROM? The prize being 4 times ...

This thread has brought me to reconsider the way I was structuring some things and I feel that I've probably given you somewhat bad advice. The issue with testing two objects before both has been moved is that it creates a variance between the positions of the objects displayed in the game, and the ...

True, spawning of enemies in a group can be spread out over several frames, one enemy per frame. But, say, the spread gun in Contra spawns five bullet objects in one frame. Unless of course you're spamming the fire button to take advantage of the spawning pattern and unleashing an onslaught of dama...

so they can't have their AI run in the same frame they were crated. Thank you, I guess I'll be able to figure something out. This might not be a serious concern for you. If your game doesn't have a lot of bullets, and if those bullets don't have to aim in the direction of the player, then I don't t...

Why wouldn't it be allowed? There are a lot of people here who would like to know when your game is released.

I'd like one. I had no idea that the NA auction was going on.

But in what order should I run the AIs? I think this probably depends a lot on your game structure. In my current project, I separate players, enemies, player bullets, and enemy bullets into different loops, so that each of them can be as minimal as possible. The workload for each is quite differen...
