Last-minute splash screen and loading bar (mid-load) |
Datajerk's c2d utility allows you to display a text splash screen whilst the game is loading. It requires a dump of $400 bytes from text memory which of course on the Apple is a dog's breakfast. So I whipped up a quick C program that would allow me to easily layout my screen and then write out a binary dump compatible with Apple II text screen memory.
Some eye-candy from the latest build.
End of game - attract mode |

Will be interesting to gauge the reaction of attendees. Unfortunately it's still pre-alpha so there's glitches and flickering, but it was a last-minute offer.
