Just a small progress report on the happenings around the new Frogger version.
Nearly there!
I guess I will do some small fixings, optimizations and possibly beautifying – but all in all there is a feature freeze. Following stuff changed from the original (vectrex frogger):
- cars and frogger viewed from above
- smoother vectors
- score, level and life is displayed while playing
- play area broadened a bit
- more original sounds/music
- options for 1 and 2 player game
- in one player mode option for training mode (continue enabled)
- option for music on/off
- 5 Highscore places saved to DS2431 eEprom
- new title screen
- attract mode
Following stuff was removed:
- intermissions
- pause mode
I am still in conflict with myself whether I should change the levels to be more “orginal” – in the original aracde frogger, two of the neighboring water lanes moved in the same directions – which I do not take into account yet. Thus the lanes above that quite feel different.
Anyways short talk… Here a 10 minute video of the current version:
There is a bug, look at 9:42s the otter is displayed within the log!
*Man* you had good eyes, I didn’t see that!
Yeah, sure – its me – you!
in the title screen logo is one of the ‘g’s supposed to be a frogs webbed foot? 🙂
ps. the game looks freakin’ super 😀
