- Well once again dear chappies.. That concludes the voting
- from the mega galactic panel of B.S.S judges (Hello England!).
-
- You may accuse me of idle slagging (if you're an asshole)
- So here are some tips for would be games writers:
-
- 1. Use hardware scroll for gods sake!!!!
- 2. Make sure the game runs at 50 frames per second.. there's
- no excuse for jerky ST horse shit.. Take a look at
- Turrican - full screen multidirectional smooth scroll!!!
- 3. Make sure its got a decent soundtrack no plinky-plonk
- voices, pots and pans or crackly samples please.
- 4. Decent sound FX are a must.
- 5. If its a choice between 50 frames per second and parralax
- 5000 layer arcade scrolling drop the 4999 other layers!!
- 6. Make sure the graphics look arcade. IE:shiny,waxy.bright!
- Not dull bland boring crap like Narc for instance..
- 7. Use the hardware sprites.. I know they're a bit shit but
- theyre great for bullets,weapons,main characters and the
- like..
-
- Enjoy another year of wicked (?) software on me....
