Just Another Paint App (PSP Lua Application)

As you can guess from the name, this is”Just Another Pain App(lication)”. It’s written in Lua and requires Lua-Player v0.15. Here are further notes:

My first LUA program…it’s a PAINT program…you can seriously get any color of the rainbow from this. At the bottom left of the screen shows your Red, Green, and Blue values (default 0). The top left shows your cursor speed. (default 64)The cursor color will be the color that comes out when you press X (combination of R,G,B values)Controls:If you don’t feel like reading it all, press x, square, triangle, or circle with a combination of other buttons to figure out what they do.Analog = move around cursorX = draw with R, G, B valuesSquare = draw Red valuesTriangle = draw Green valuesCircle = draw Blue valuesR + X = background color changes to R, G, B colorR + Square = background color changes to Red valueR + Triangle = background color changes to Green valueR + Circle = background color changes to Blue valueR + Left/Right = decrease/increase brush sizeL + X = reset cursor speed (default 64)L + R = reset cursor to center of screenL + Square = sets Red value to 255 or 0 (depending on which it is at)L + Triangle= sets Green value to 255 or 0 (depending on which it is at)L + Circle = sets Blue value to 255 or 0 (depending on which it is at)Square + Up/Down = increase red value by 10Triangle + Up/Down = increase green value by 10Circle + Up/Down = increase blue value by 10Square + Left/Right = increase red value by 1Triangle + Left/Right = increase green value by 1Circle + Left/Right = increase blue value by 1Up/Down = increase/decrease cursor speed

Ooze v0.9 (A2600 Game)

Ooze is a single player game, played with a Joystick plugged into the Left Controller slot. You get three chances at completing the game without allowing the ooze, or your own missile, to touch your ship. There are 10 levels to a complete game. Further notes:

I’m wanting to squeeze the best overall gameplay out of this one more time before releasing it on cart. Past efforts only involved a few testers. Hoping to get a few more this time around.Before, the levels were somewhat random, with a couple of real tough ones mixed in. This time around, I’ve decided to try a cyclic set of similar levels with a better ramp-up to the ending level 10.Additionally, the initial levels in prior versions started out really, really easy. I think that made the game somewhat boring at first, then fairly decent. This set of level parameters starts the game out at the action level, then ramps up from there. I’m hoping this has a better immersive effect than the other combinations did. You tell me!At this point, major gameplay feature changes are off the table, but changes to colors, level parameters and other minor tweaks are going to be considered. Again, lemme know what you think!
