Grafoon is an ‘Arcade Style Puzzle Shooter’ with a lot of classic elements like: Doors/Keys, Mines ( including chain reactions ), various walls with different behavior, laser barrier, nasty enemies and a lot more…

The main target is to pick up all Hobbels and bring them home to advance to the next map. Don’t touch the walls, they will destroy your ship. Touching enemies or enemy shots drain you ships energy. Collect green gems to increase your ships energy…

Changes:

– added moving walls
– added hobbel carrier enemy ( this enemy drops a hobbel if killed )
– added timed doors ( opens for 5 seconds if the ‘key-switch’ is touched or shot )
– hobbel speed-up ( pressing the ‘Y’ key increases the hobbel speed )
– support for ‘external’ maps via DLDI interface
– 27 level ( 9 tutorial maps, 8 built in map, 10 maps in an external level set, wich requires DLDI patch )
– larger maps ( support for variable map size )
– scoring item
– custom control configuration
– high score list
– more sounds
– some bug fixes

As reported last week, Cotsz is working on a new Nintendo DS game, which he previously wrote for Amiga.

A first binary is out, but the game is entirly unplayable. The “s” after the version number stands for “sprites and scrolling” and reflects what you can expect in this early stage of the game.

A visual novel game engine by tommybomb.

Release Notes:

Warning: The following material contains adult concepts, viewer discretion is advised.

Game: Visual Novel Hentai Game Engine (VNHGE)
State: V0.3
Source: Open Source
Developer: tommybomb (tbag)

Engine Implementations:
Developers Screen
Menu
Chapters with chapters splash
Page engine which can load backgrounds, sounds, sprites, etc.
Mini Game with stages

Info: I made this engine so other people can make their own visual novel and add their own mini games. At first I intended it to be a hentai game, but then soon decide to turn it into an engine which other people could use. You can do what ever you want with it. Change it, Fix it, Reorganise it, whatever. Credit is appreciated but there is no need since the PAlib community are the ones who helped me build it. I have reset all the background blank with text(to tell you what they are for) for you to implement yourself. I have censored the mini game for you to make yourself, its just an example mini game.

Two new stages for AmplituDS are now available. AmplituDS is based on the gameplay of Amplitude for the PlayStation 2.

Release notes:

Yes, that’s right. Two people have been hard at work to give you two new stages to play with, alongside the three new ones AmplituDS v4 already brought! So that brings up the total to…… umm…. count the one …. FIVE new stages for the fourth version of AmplituDS. Awesome.

A visual novel game engine by tommybomb.

Release Notes:

I have been working on this game for some time now, as I planned to make a hentai visual novel game it turned to something else. I am now trying to make the engine of this game open source so others can make their visual novel games. I just happen to make mine a hentai VN with a mini game involved so it does not get so boring. I have decided to wait before I actually start game to get kicked off as i plan to remake the interface, buttons, sprites, backgrounds, etc. before that happens. For now I just want to complete the engine
