VADE RETRO

[JBGV]

Hello again,

I Finish this game not long ago, it was actually a kind of test, I continue to learn ASM and I wanted (even once) to move an object in "HR" :roll: .

I hope you like it.

Regards and happy holidays !

Spanish - English and Code:

J*der tío, es buenísimo! Me he viciado jugando, a ver si lo termino.
Holy sh*t! Very good! I'm totally addicted. Let's see if I finish it!

Very slick. I have mild language difficulties, of course :-)

Also, I can't work out what to do with the flashing thing on a stick. I can't pick it up, and I can't shoot it....

(And I'm known for being /really/ bad at games)

Not sure, but I think I saw there's an English version also, isn't it? :?:

[britlion]

How did I miss that?

I'm used to xxxxE being English, of course. And never expected XXXXi to mean English

Thanks

I was also /sure/ I tried both.

This doesn't leave me any less stuck with the glowing red thing, however!

Hello !

Britlion, stand near the stick and press "N"

Maybe I should specify that file corresponds with Spanish and English !! :mrgreen: Sorry

"e" is for "Español" and "i" for "Inglés" (In spanish)

Take the opportunity to thank you Britlion, I use one of your routines . Actually, thanks to all, I learn a lot here !

And sorry for my english :oops:

[britlion]

Hi JBGV. Actually, I think the game looks awesome. I'm going to have to read the source code to see how you did all that. And I thought "pac man" was hard to write.


Hmm. I'm sure I tried that - press N. I did the shoot thing (m), and the pickup thing from both sides and top.... I'll try it again later.

[JBGV]

Thanks !

Thanks for the game, it looks excellent!..

[britlion]

Still stuck. I fought my way to the key(?) on the pedestal. And I can't do anything with it. I can stand next to it and press N all I want. Nothing happens...

That's strange, no one has reported this error. :oops:

I've tested the game with real ZX Spectrum and with Spectaculator, DSpec, SPectrum4 and ZXSpin emulators.

Thanks for the warning ¡¡¡¡¡


With your file I play without problems! :

It is very good (and have included a game of "Vade Retro" and "Stela")

Yes I agree that works. Your demonstration showed me what to do. I was clicking on the flashing top of the column - I never thought to click on the bottom.

The reason for that is that I was trained to click next to flashing objects by the key in the first room - so when I see the flashing object here, I try, with no success, to click on it too. The bottom of the pedestal doesn't look like an interesting thing at all!

So, I agree the code works, but I think it's a design flaw :-)


That said - once I worked out that mechanic, I got a LONG way into the game first go. Fighting is quite fun, actually. More so than I thought it would be for such small sprites and simple alien logic. But they seem to almost dodge at times. And of course the football manager start is so funny :-)

(By the way: English version should read "Goal " and "No Goal" :-) - You translated those out of the original version, I think?!)

Very well done!
