The "last" map

Allez, je me suis bricolé une dernière map pour School Rush: la récompense pour ceux qui seront parvenus à grimper jusqu'en haut du "niveau secret". Il y aura une présentation des monstres, bien sûr, mais aussi une petite surprise qui m'a pris du temps à mettre au point. Au niveau de l'idée, je veux dire.I …

School Touch?

My brother comes back again with the idea of School Rush on Android platform. Porting issues set aside, I guess he means "on the bare device", and not assuming one bluetooth dpad and buttons attached, Nintendo-switch-like. That implies converting touch and taps and gestures into valid SNES inputs.Mon frangin n'en démord pas: la plate-forme qu'il …

Presenting monsters

This is something I really loved in DKC closing cutscene and which I'll now seriously start working on for School Rush: seeing the nicknames of all the baddies in the game with the baddies themselves. Later on, when I wanted to bring Badman II to an end, I tried to do something similar: which apparently …

Rendez-vous avec la S-Team

Ah. Enfin l'occasion de faire tester mon niveau vertical à la S-Team au grand complet! Et de plus entouré de p'tits n'veux de 8-10 ans qui ont fini par venir s'agglutiner autour de L (la benjamine) tandis qu'elle s'entrainait à aller le plus haut possible dans le niveau final. Les ainés auront eu du mérite …

drop your weapons

One of the most vexing gameplay bug I can think of in School Rush is that you can't enter inkjets when carrying a dumblador. That can easily lead to moments of panic for most reactive players and frustrating death for others.I now have it fixed, by dropping the requirement of NO_WEAPON when entering inkjets, adding …

OBJ-WINDOW: Look through the ink

The DS video is made of multiple layers -- this should be no news for you. One of the video registers define which of these layers should be shown on screen, but that register also enables and disable a more obscure feature of the NDS: the windows -- that is, the ability to define multiple …

NExt (last?) steps on School Rush

No real "todo item" identified from last week-end' playtesting session, except one funny idea of using a special feature of the NDS' sprite hardware so that we can see Bilou while he's swimming up the ink.I've got a few other things to do, though. Some editing on the map, some debugging on the inkjets, but …
