Sven Vößing presents another and unfortunately the last “Retro Hunter” Video-Podcast. It’s in German language only. Usually of interest for every Retro-Fan!
Quote:
Sven Vößing alias Retro Hunter tritt heute zum letzten bei GamersGlobal auf. Ganz normal startet die Sendung mit Choplifter hoch in die Lüfte, während uns Urban Champion wieder zurück auf den Boden der Tatsachen holt. Aber für die letzte Episode von Retro Hunter hat Sven noch was ganz besonderes ausgegraben: die nicht gesendete Chernobyl-Gurke hat heute ihren Auftritt – und etwas zu gewinnen gibt es auch noch. Freut euch also noch mal auf über 18 Minuten Retro-Schwelgerei. Bevor diese Sendung leider zu Ende geht, sieht unten.
Mal was Persönliches, man möge es mir für meine letzte Folge verzeihen: Mir hat es wirklich Spaß gemacht, die Sendung für GamersGlobal zu produzieren. Mich hat es beruflich nun in woanders hin gezogen, und das schließt leider eine Weiterführung der Retro-Hunter-Sendung hier aus. Ich danke dem GG-Team für die tolle Zusammenarbeit, und werde euch als User auf jeden Fall in den Kommentaren erhalten bleiben!
Euer Sven

Double Dash Wii is a Boulder Dash Clone for the Wii, featuring a map editor!
Changes:
* ddashconvert.py lev2tmx and dummyxml.xml added DIAMNUM
* ddashconvert.py added a mapcheck (counts diamonds, boulders, entrys, etc.) during conversion and checks if there are enough diamonds, entrys and exits
* removed some levels from the vs/coop/speedrace maps, because similar leves are now in race/clone mode
* made some new maps for vs/coop/speedrace
* (made a working win32exe of ddasconvert.py with py2exe (windows tested and ok), but i did not included it because it raises the packagesize about +2.7MB!)

Sven Vößing alias Retro Hunter stellt sich heute wieder dem Kampf. Gruselig wird es mit dem SF-Klassiker Alien 3, der beweist, dass LJN nicht nur Mist produziert hat. Verbrechen lohnt sich nicht? Crime does not pay zeigt jedenfalls, dass sich so manche Entwicklung nicht gelohnt hat! Ein kurzfristiger Spaß ist Edge Grinder, ein neuer Shooter für den C64. Wieso kurzfristig? Das erfahrt ihr in der neuen Ausgabe.
