[Ongoing] Tiger Claw - Page 2

Lazycow · 28 May 2016, 18:21

Tiger Claw seems to be finished now. Well, almost... (the title picture and the background music is missing)

It was quite some work to make it fast enough on the A500. I wonder if this is because of vbcc's moldy optimizer or my rusty assembler skills? Well... maybe both...

Anyway, here's a screenshot of the versus-mode for 2-4 players.

Another thing... What's the usual way to end an Amiga game? ESC-key?
At least if it is started from hard-disk... (you don't want to end a game when you booted the game from floppy-disk, right?)

Is there a game menu, where you can change options or start the game? Just add a new line: Quit to Workbench.

Escape is a good idea.

Lazycow · 25 August 2016, 12:40

Good news: Saul finished the Amiga graphics and Amiga music of Tiger Claw!
Also, a few minor bugs are left to fix, but it should be finished "soon"... Here's a sneak peek at the title menu. (new: 2nd button support)

Awesome news and looking very professional; can't wait to play this

Well done Lazycow

Gzegzolka · 25 August 2016, 13:27

Looks cool and professional ^^

dirkies · 25 August 2016, 14:00

ready to give this a spin with my 2 button stick on a Miggy

Lonewolf10 · 02 September 2016, 21:36

I agree with the others, this looks great

Adrian Browne · 26 September 2016, 04:10

Yup, looks nice and will we get a boxed version like powerglove?

Predseda · 26 September 2016, 09:08

+1 for a box!!!!

ReadOnlyCat · 27 September 2016, 02:39

Yup, also interested by a box version.

Lazycow · 27 September 2016, 12:14

Yes, a boxed version of Powerglove and Tiger Claw is planned. (from RGCD)
More details as soon as the game is finished. "Soon" (tm) ...

1st test of the new(?) "classic mode": It's the same as standard mode, but with different graphics...
(haven't checked if there's enough memory left, but there should be...)

Nice idea...

That is just a wonderful looking game and based off one of my most favorite 8bit games "Bruce Lee" Sterling work to you and the team behind this superb little game.

Lazycow · 30 October 2016, 09:20

status update: The classic mode is in, but I had to use the a cruncher to store the graphic sets. (it should still work on an A500 with 1MB)

As my buglist is empty now, here's a list of the worst problems:
- There have been bugs in my 20 years old low level code (That code looks like it has been created by a mad scientist, it's a total mess. What was I thinking?)
- A compiler bug was triggered by my C64 C optimiziations and lead to unexpected behaviors.
- A bug in UAE did not reveal a bug in the game. (always test your stuff on the real hardware, kids!)
- The artist was busy with other projects.

conclusion:
