On May 26, 2020May 26, 2020 By IndieRetroNews

1st May – 26th May 2016While things have looked very quiet on this project. It doesn’t mean that we are not continuing with the game project. In fact, the hardest part of the game code is practically out of the way. There are 16 alien formation tables set up so […]

Cruising for a Bruising

On January 20, 2019January 21, 2019 By Richard_of_TND

20th January 2019 Well, 2018 sure has been a bit of a roller coaster of a ride, where C64 productivity and time was concerned. I mainly have been busy on SEUCK projects, but finally I have got time to do what I want. I will be on an Assemble It […]

25th December 2017 First of all, Merry Christmas (Happy Birthday to me ;o)) and a Happy New Year. This will be my final Blog for 2017, and I have decided to talk about the production of my LATEST game release Starfysh. This is basically a horizontal scrolling shoot ’em up – […]

Cruiser X-79 Update #12

On October 7, 2017September 4, 2018 By Richard_of_TND

7th October 2017 This is a just a quick update. You may remember a couple of days ago, I mentioned about having trouble getting the tape loader to work using multi-load, and the game crashed. I finally managed to get my way around this problem, simply by not triggering RTS […]

Cruiser X-79 [UPDATE 11] – Not much … Or is it?

On October 5, 2017September 4, 2018 By Richard_of_TND

5th October 2017 I really should have back dated this Friday+Saturday last week, as nothing had been done today. I’ve been running late. Anyway, last week, I was doing some brain storming, and slight of hand updating of the game code. Originally Cruiser X-79 used a 3xIRQ interrupt, but since […]

Cruiser X-79 – Update #10

On August 19, 2017September 4, 2018 By Richard_of_TND

19th August 2017 More action has been taking place today. First of all, Saul suggested that I should reduce the animation speed for the aliens and also the explosion. Basically double the delay of the animation. Also I had a go at setting up level pointers, where after each level […]

On August 18, 2017September 4, 2018 By Richard_of_TND

13th – 18th August 2017 Not much happened on the game programming front, but at least I made an effort to do something for the production. While I was away from this project for a few weeks or so, I recently received some new graphics for the game. It wasn’t […]

Zenox Attack is now Cruiser X-79

On March 25, 2017September 4, 2018 By Richard_of_TND

25th March 2017 It has been a very long time since the last time I was working on this space shoot ’em up. Probably due to the long term lack in motivation to code a new game. Also due to getting sidetracked with other tasks as well. Not, to mention […]

28th October 2016 It is currently my second, but last day of my holiday, and things will start to quieten down even more from next week, due to even less free time. Although C64 activities will occasionally continue. Now today, you had better run (To the TND web site) as […]
