new projects in development: games • Re: Meteors++ (Enhanced Acornsoft Meteors for Acorn Electron)

I saw this on my YT feed, looks amazing, massive well done!

Thanks!

That looks great! The funny thing is, I don't have much recollection of it being that bad. The main thing that stood out to me about Electron Meteors was the way it wasn't in colour (like the BBC version) or with a blue background (like on the box)!

Cheers! Same here. It was fun to play and that was it. Now, looking at it with a technical eye, I see room for improvement

I may add a choice for different colour schemes...

I was going to mention the colour difference between the BBC and Electron versions. I vaguely remember running the BBC version on the Electron. Again thanks to my friend who had a Beeb. I had several games from him.

I may very well attempt to create a MODE 5 version to have a little colour in the game, even though I rather like the monochrome look. A MODE 1 version will be excruciatingly slow on the Elk, not to mention nearly impossible to get it sprite flicker free...
