Hi!

Yes, I encountered the middle mouse button issue myself when I tried using a touchpad! I'll make it so CTRL+LEFT CLICK pans, like Maya.

BMPs need to be 16 colour, I'll be integrating a proper image loading library into it at some point.

Collision gets exported as its own tileset and map ...

I'll be doing a Reddit AMA tomorrow (Sunday 3rd) at 7pm GMT to try and drum up some more interest. Please do drop by if you can

Also I did an interview with Computerphile:

I've added a reward tier that offers Tanglewood as a downloadable ROM file:

This brings back warm memories. I had a C64 program that parsed MML, spent weeks messing around with it.

What does this do with volume/pitch slides? Does it bake new notes into the output?

A quick demonstration of the kit in action:

It's not the best, I'm trying to overcome my camera shyness.

Excellent news, Matt. I am glad that you stuck to it. Only sorry that we did not get you UMDK to use in good time.

Best of luck with it and I hope you reach the Kickstart Goal.

Cheers.

Thank you :)

I'm still interested in a UMDK the second someone starts manufacturing again! And hopefully if ...

Thank you all for the support, it flew past 25% in its third day!

Yes, it will be on sale properly when it's finished.

All tiles, maps, sprites and animations are done using Beehive: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2259

Hello lovely homebrew community!

As you may already know, since starting my journey learning 68000 ASM and collecting dev hardware, I've been working on Tanglewood - a dark 2D platformer-with-puzzles - and recently completed a major milestone and released a tech demo.

I'd like to see my game ...

Educated guesswork: clearing all regs and using movem would theoretically be the fastest method.

As usual, though, I get dubious about questions like this: why? I wrote a MemClear routine once, it gets called during init, never looked back.

Clearing VRAM is where it gets interesting. DMA fill/copy ...

Tech Demo 0.0.14 released! http://www.tanglewoodgame.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=16

Changes since 0.0.12:

- Level 1 Act 3 first draft (Djakk chase) (see it in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEXtVvwVO-8 )
- Checkpoints!
- New tree branch tileset, with glowing green moss to help ...

I'm going to start with a simple Exodus plugin - I already have a SNASM68K COFF reader for it so I can match addresses to source, so this makes sense. I'll just make it dump out accumulative cost per instruction in CSV format for now and go from there.

I'll get busy then!

Static analysis isn't properly representative, of course, but it's a useful first pass and can be used for comparison of small sections of code during an optimisation refactor, rather than the whole picture at runtime. Examples of instruction-counted code is a hot topic on this ...
