TIGSource De-make Competition
http://forums.tigsou...hp?topic=2376.0

Sorta on-topic as the point of the contest is to take a new game and "back port" it to an older system. Of course, the general theme dictates your game must look like a pirate version with similar (but not trademark infringing) content.

My entry is Axion 52
It's a parody of the Action 52 NES cartidge http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_52. I'l downgrade the style to Coleco or Intellivision standards. I've got a month and no track record of completing a project - I'd say that gives me a 50/50 chance

I suggested these names for possible titles but nobody took them.. wonder why?

Eheh.. Will try it out and post some feedback when possible.


btw: Non-related but I'm also growing a beard like you on the avatar, all it's missing now is finding a good set of glasses..

[Moon Goon]

A beard?

Does that mean you're the Evil Nuno from the alternate Star Trek universe?

I already locked a friend in a room until he beat the game so no beta testing is needed

It is fun to play though! Just make sure to have at least 4 video cards installed for the intense graphics

[TheHive]

Reminds me of an Atari game. Some Mario in there too. lol!
Where are the Cheat codes.

[Brito]

Tried the game under Wine on Linux and it did run well even thought the window size was a tiny small (about the same size as my avatar)

The first thing your game reminded me was Mario Bros as TheHive mentioned. But I didn't went too far and got caught several times by the local enemies.

Any cheat key to get the flame thrower or the apache helicopter?

nope, just the same old nuno here..

But I am using some high tech star trek stuff like a 100% electrical motor bike to ride my way to work: http://nunobrito1981...ic-scooter.html

To get full screen you need to press F4. Esc to Exit

Um! Pics anyone. Any reference site people interested should look at.

[Moon Goon]

That bike sounds cool! Gas prices are crazy nowadays.

Cheat code: Press L to gain 99 lives.

I'm thinking of entering another contest. This one has prizes too.
