Title: PCEFXBOMB - Bomberman battle game
Post by: nodtveidt on October 18, 2011, 06:10:10 PM: I've just released PCEFXBOMB, a free-to-download Bomberman clone for two to five players (no one-player mode). The characters are based on forum members here. Check it out. :)

Both. MSR has a version with MSR characters and this version is by itself.

Post by: nodtveidt on October 21, 2011, 06:52:49 PM: I've made a special hucard version available now as well. Download link is on the same page as above. The archive includes both a normal ROM and a headerless ROM for picky flashcarts.
Title: Re: PCEFXBOMB - Bomberman battle game
Post by: Tatsujin on October 21, 2011, 11:25:04 PM: thx a lot, just checkoved it out :)

unfortunately no 1P action, so i can't really play it atm.
Title: Re: PCEFXBOMB - Bomberman battle game
Post by: nodtveidt on October 22, 2011, 03:28:45 AM: I'm in the process of adding a 1P mode to it, but it will be a lot more involved than just doing the multiplayer battle mode. Making a multiplayer game like this is mad easy... adding a 1P mode involves adding AI, and will require a different code strategy for hucard as it does for CD. I'm going to stick to the hucard version though, I think... it'll allow me to add more graphics and code, and I'll add Squirrel for music. :)

It happens sometimes for specific people. I don't think that it's a browser thing, but during periods when I have trouble, I get through most often on my phone. But I think that it's just the fact that I get to browse online at random times of day with my phone.

You're not the only one who's had trouble, but it only seems to affect a small fraction of the people accessing the site at any given time.

It's a hosting thing dude.

Half of the Netherlands couldn't access Aetherbyte.com for awhile. I had to send repeated emails to XS4ALL until they fixed it.

See if your ISP is being a cock-knocker and blocked the site.

The in-game sounds are all PSG-based. The voices are ADPCM.

Cool, what type of psg sounds ???
Waveforms or samples (DDA) ??
Title: Re: PCEFXBOMB - Bomberman battle game
Post by: nodtveidt on November 05, 2011, 09:41:15 AM: Waveforms. DDA is too CPU-intensive for the amount of action going on.
Title: Re: PCEFXBOMB - Bomberman battle game
Post by: touko on November 05, 2011, 09:57:40 AM: Ok thanks for answers rover ..
I'am using two simultaneous DDA chanel (for each caracter) in my current project, and it works not too bad ...
But it's less clean than your waveforms sfx .
