No no no, you need to enable. a specail bit in order to get a 34D effect. i'm sure of it.

I always thought the forth dimension was time.


While time can be interpreted as a fourth dimension, it is different from the others in that things cannot move back and forth through time freely, and as such it is often considered separate from the other three dimensions. There can be a speedup or slowdown effect of sorts in relation to other objects' passage through time according to the theory of special relativity, however.

Damnation, how obvious do I have to make a purposely stupid post before people start playing along? Kyouji's posts don't count because that was the worst attempt at fake stupidity I've ever seen.

I guess you might have been making a statement about how faking stupid posts is stupid, but that's far too ironic to be cool.

Why don't we get games like that over here? Seems pretty dumb to me to not translate it, it would probably hav been very successful over this side of tte pacific.

Because "it was only released over satellite or similar" like Xkeeper said and it is thus not a title big enough for translation? Because text adventures don't sell big? Because translation of a text adventure would require more work than an average game? Because it didn't come here over FDS, and the series didn't have english-speaking fans yet? Because Nintendo's always been weird about games that contain violence? Nope, all those answers thst spring to mine right now couldn't be right, because why would you ask such a stupid question before thinking up ONE of them?

I was expecting Live-a-Live awesome or greater, considering the fact that Xkeeper went all red caps and illegal to bring it to us. It was rather disappointing, really.

Sure, the atmosphere is superb. Playing through the game was probably worth it just to see the killer. The good portrait and background graphics and great sound add up to what every game should be--an experience.

However, it kinda craps out on two of the most important elements of a game. The story was kinda lacking. All the events connected in the most meaningless ways. Then the end came and we found out who the killer was, and the events still connected in all the most meaningless ways. I felt no big web of deceit, just like I was on a sort of fetch quest for clues.

Spoiler:
It's possible I just didn't get the story at the end. Was there some pen-initials-related plotline or implied event going on here that I just totally didn't catch?


And, of course, the second failure is the gameplay itself. There's very little decision-making, it was just a matter of clicking all the options until new options appeared so you could click those. I did that for the whole of a game and still got 15/20 hearts.

That's pretty great. You got all the graphics to work together pretty well; I haven't seen a full picture like that since, well, Icegoom's work, but before that there weren't any graphics I know of that look as good as those.

As for the sand, when you can see sand on both the bottom and top sides of a horizontal strip it looks weird. If you got rid of the sand near on the top of each moving strip, I think it would look much better.

Also, that ground in front looks like it's moving awfully slow. Is that just the gif? It should be moving much faster. Will it kill you on contact 'cause the train's in motion?

Yeah, I'm pretty impressed overall. If you should ever need any special things coded for Grumf, I'd be happy to oblige. Need a special death animation, maybe?

The obvious answer is to pick a game where the characters of Super Bomberman 5 face the characters in Tetris Attack in a fight to the death for the prestige of being an Acmlmboard tournament game. Super Tetris Attack 5, anyone?

You could use a hex editor to change the byte at xEC32 to the sprite number you want. At xEC36 you can change what Lakitu throws when a silver p-switch is active.

No, they don't. P Balloons just trigger Mario's "Inflated" mode and the game takes it from there. Same with, well, everything of the Powerup variety.

I have learned something valuable on this day. Calling Kyouji an idiot hardly affects him, since he's an idiot and he knows it, but being sickeningly nice is generally like anathema to him--something he himself would only do to make fun of Thoughtless' nickname.

Thus, I start The Movement to be Sickeningly Nice to Kyouji Craw.

Guys, if BMF blatantly marked the code in the ROM, I'd think it was because he wasn't interested in keeping it from people. Even I think a simple "BMF wrote that code first, actually" would have sufficed, and I'm usually all for unnecessary aggression.

Damn you, Alastor, why must you say so many things I wholeheartedly agree with? Saying "QFT" all the time is getting dumb.

Okay, by that standard someone can't be a movie critic unless they've made a major motion picture. Besides, the eyeballs *are* kinda dumb and while some levels rock lots of them are just linear runs with a couple of enemies and jumps in the way. Not that luisv isn't guilty of *other* obvious dumb things in the posts above, just not those.

It's only when you compare the few good things in this hack to the other hacks which have none at all that this hack shines.

Okay, so I'm making a special Dry Bones... To defeat him, bop him on the head and then fireball him when he's down. In order to do that, I'll need to know which sprite table holds the "vulnerable to fireballs" bit, if there is such a table. Anybody know where that is?

Also, there's some data I've been meaning to post. It's kinda a mess, there are some repeats, and the accuracy of the material is questionable, but it's something, right?

I think a tips-and-tricks thread is a decent idea, but I also think that the big contributors for this type of thread have no damn idea what good advice actually is, thus rendering the thread useless. For example....

I'm in agreement with Kyouji on this one... this piece of misadvice is punch-in-face-worthy. Remember when d4s complimented Icegoom on his consistent style and everyone was in shock that he actually gave a compliment? That's how important it is not to follow your advice.

It had to have been important because not only did that chump Shyguy mention it, but then somebody else did in a poll later. Really would have been nice if they had paid attention to "use consistent styles" comments from Kyouji, who's been saying that for, like, years now.
