Qix (Build 6) (A2600 Game)

atari2600land is still working on his Qix style Atari 2600 conversion.

Release notes:

If I made the playfield 200 pfblocks, then I could just divide the # of pfblocks filled in by 2 to get a %. This is what I did in this next version. Also, the automatic line stops once you reach a playfield block, whether it be the border or not and adds the %age to the score (the 5th figure should be a ‘%’, I just haven’t gotten around to making it yet.

Tabbed v0.15 (NDS Application)

Wizlon has updated his NDS application Tabbed, which is a guitar chord finder for NDS.

Release notes:

I really hope I’m not going to dissapoint people here because this version is rather sparse. The main feature I’ve added is the options screen which contains a selection of fonts, backgrounds and the requested “lefty” mode, which turns all the chords on their heads. I hope its useful. You’ll also notice that any options selected will be saved when you turn your DS back on, (thats save support kyle), which should come in useful. I’ve also left in a very early vesion of the edit screen, in it you can edit the text in files, you can’t save them just yet, just edit them, so basically it’s pretty useless. At least I’ve done something eh? Till next time.

Bee Ball v6.1 (A2600 Game)

Bee Ball is a volleyball type game, but the difference matters. You and your CPU player are bees and of course you don’t push around any ordinary volleyball, no it’s a honeyball!

Release notes:

It’s AI update, the unique way I found to fix that bug mentioned by Nathan is disable Stroke movement, in ball served by bee judge. You need touch the ball at first, to do stroke, but this time is enought to respositioning opponent player, to try blocking. And in overall, AI is more competitive. Still easy, but more challenging. I not fix the screen jump bug yet.

For now there is just a NTSC version, PAL version might follow.
