@Leo, With picomite V6.01.00 rc15 (last one posted by Peter) you should be able to port KM to the pico. Martin.H has converted your PNG's to BMP's in RGB121 format. Background RGB(Myrtle) / color number 2 for transparencey. In this demo you see how it is used. Works really fast. You may be able to run your birds at same speed as CMM2. You could combine maps and objects 2 in one BMP and use flash slot 3 Then use flash slot 2 for the other file (since it's X dimension is different). -or- just put them side by side (832x240 nibbles = 99840 bytes). That should fit in one slot. Slot 3 should be compatible with most software. Petscii Robots also does that. 'test for blit from flash slot 'require picomite V6.01.00 rc14 or newer. 'load a bmp into flash slot 3, clearing old content (erases library) Flash load image 3,"objects2.bmp",o 'setup 2 planes MODE 2 CLS RGB(cerulean) 'plane N FRAMEBUFFER layer 2 'layer L over N with Myrtle as transparent color 'the screen should be completely blue-ish now since L is transparent 'copy an object from flash slot 3 to N slot layer flash XY screen XY size XY Blit flash 3, N, 64,0, 20,20, 16,16 'do not omit copying myrtle Blit flash 3,N,64,0,40,20,16,16,2 'omit copying myrtle 'copy an object from flash slot 3 to L 'framebuffer write L Blit flash 3,L,64,0,60,20,16,16 'do not omit copying myrtle, but L is transparent for Myrtle Blit flash 3,L,64,0,80,20,16,16,2 'omit copying myrtle n=32 'position X offset for test Do For x=0 To 15 xpos=x*16:xrem=(15-x)*16 Timer =0 Blit flash 3,L, xpos,80, n, 40,xrem,16 Blit flash 3,L, 0, 80, xrem+n,40,xpos,16 tm=Timer Pause 20 'without the pause it would not be visible so fast.

Hi LeoNicolas, I had a few questions while playing. The shield only works from the front, and that's how it's supposed to be? It makes sense, but it's annoying sometimes with the birds from behind. It seems like they don't even have to touch you, just being close is enough. **Annoying** ;-) If I have the double arrow upgrade and collect the same double arrow upgrade again, the strength should be increased, right? But instead, I get a single arrow?!? In another round, the first 500-point field is often only half visible. Then I get an 404 error on your GitHub page at this link: I created a nodejs script that converts the exported json map to the binary format used by the game engine. Matthias |

@LeoNicolas The sound issue has been resolved; it was due to my SD card. I found another bug. This ball came, shot/placed on S. It went to the left into the graphics with the columns, where the game character cannot go. It is positioned so that when it comes back to the right, the game character hits it or collects the item. At that moment, the programme crashes. "Error in objects.inc line 726: Not Showing" Then I experienced another respawn just before a bridge, but I died again immediately. Bad luck :-) but a position just before the bridge where the character runs over it would be nicer. The game is really cool! Matthias |

Matthias I want to thank you for testing the game. This is very kind. I will work on the bugs at the weekend. I need to implement and algorithm to move the player to a safe place after a death, avoiding it to be stuck behind or inside a river or a wall when respawning. I hope you can finish the game  . I think the final cut scene is very cool. |

Hi Leo, Here's another funny bug. If you die while trying to collect a special item like the double arrow, it still collects the item. After respawning, I immediately had a double arrow! When I reach and defeat the final boss in stage one, the final boss comes back! So instead of going to stage two, it respawns in the final battle. Unfortunately, I was caught off guard, got hit straight away and it was game over. And when attempting to restart in the game, the following error occurs: Error in map.inc line 173: Index out of bounds. Only restarting the programme via run helps.

Hi Leo, My new video grabber has arrived, and it can finally record VGA from the CMM2. Here is the bug as a video. km_error_demo.zip Matthias |
