Inferno for MSX2

[SuperDeadite]

Alright got it on the flash cart.

Music is teh awesome.
Graphics are teh cool.

However I have no idea how many times I can get hit before I die. 
If I use the keyboard to skip stages I always spawn in the column on stage 3.

The heart at the bottom speeds up when you're near death.   I don't have it in the version you have, yet, but when you are officially 1 hit from dead, the mouth chomps nonstop on the right. 

I am also adding sounds to indicate that you're about to die.   

also, yeah, that keyboard skipping ahead (that I didn't officially mention to anyone, but you found anyways!) might need fixed.  I changed some things.   

Anyway, if you spot any rooms that flatout suck or are too hard to manage, just list em up.  That's what the M indicates on the screen.  (Map Number).

Some of the screens you start with an enemy on you, for example.  Those need fixed

Looks wonderful, I will definitely place an order when it comes out.

Alright on Stage 2  "m 015" I simply can't get through this room without taking multiple hits, since the hit boxes on everything are clearly larger then the sprites and the hearts are aimed at you, I always take at least 3 hits getting through here.  Maybe I just suck though.

Stage 1 M 009, ok this is a bug or some kind of invisible invincibility power up here?  I climbed up into the spike cage area from below, hit the spikes and it made a weird sound effect, after that the heart meter seemed to reset to no damage status, after that nothing seemed to hurt me, I would get hit and flash, but I could stand on top of spikes for 10 mins and not die,  ended up just running through everything absorbing damage, continued on to stage 2, and the effect continued.  Just ran through stage 2 absorbing everything, made it to stage 3, then spawned inside the skull column, and could not continue as I am le stuck.

Ok, did a hard reset, tried this again, and it didn't happen, so yeah must have triggered a bug somehow.

And if I play legit, or use the keyboard warp, I always spawn stuck in the column on stage 3

I am glad that shitstick isn't around anymore.

Also,

Sent Deadite a new romomromrorlglngmlgmnhn

Feel free to post screenshots in here.

Yay new rom!
I can actually move around in Stage 3 now yay!
But on Stage 3 M 004, there is a switch activated wall/door I can't open.
There is a room before this with 2 switches, regardless if I push the top one only, bottom one only, or both the wall/door does not open.  If I push any of the switches, then enter the room again they reset and I can push them again.  So it seems the game is forgetting I pushed the switches as soon as I exit the room.

Also, unless you are just f*cking with me, I have figured out the "invincibility" bug.
Enemies and enemy projectiles will give me a proper game over.
However if I lose my last HP by jumping up into spikes, it actually resets my HP to 255!
This works on the very first screen of the game, and it works every single time.

Screenshots, notice I am at 0 HP and still alive, then one more jump into the spikes, and I'm now at 255 HP.

Ok good, switch-feedback.

It's possible that the switch-maps are messed up.  If you stamp the wrong tile down in the tile editor, the switches won't work right.


Excellent catch though on that spike bug.  I see what happened.  Something I changed with taking damage didn't carry over into the spike-collision code.

and, I am too used to not getting hit by spikes anymore, so I never noticed it.

woo.

How does the ladder-climbing feel?

Ark, this looks freaking rad!

[munchiaz]

I think I will have to figure out how to do MSX emulation because Inferno looks awesome.

I even bought a controller over the summer so I wouldn’t have to use a keyboard for platformers anymore.

Are you taking pre-orders? How many batches are you planning to sell?
