Go Nuts Competition Entry - Axonite

[iWasAdam]

OOh - high praise

Last version is now out:
https://adamstrange.itch.io/axonite

This one has the new level 4. So either use 1.03 or 1.04 and don't play the last level

Adam, is there a pause button for the game? I want to show you an area on level 4 where you just get completely blocked and can't progress without losing all lives. I can't seem to grab it with Snagit unless I'm able to pause the game really.

Also when the game first comes up, or you finish a game and it goes back to the title screen then, unless you move up or down to activate the menu cursor then pressing space just jumps between game and high scores and they aren't visible. Not sure if this is intentional or actually a bug.

Obviously level 4 is nothing to do with the competition version of the game so this doesn't count as a "GNASH! NOW YOU. TELL ME!" report

yep the 'fire' on menu/hiscore is a toggle.
if you don't touch anything they will cycle between them. 'fire' will take you to the next/previous.

Yep with level 4 there are some very nasty little map tricks going on. I can remove them if that would help and not seem as nasty?

This one seems impossible to get past that's why I want to show you. Is there a pause button in the game?

Someone on youtube recommended this to me: (the algorithm)



Looks and sounds great.

Well I worked very hard on the sound going back to the original amiga libraries I've got and searching for good sounds to use.
It's also a very good demo of QasarBeach as I think this is a windows capture and the sound is perfect with no glitches. Not bad for live realtime sound engine - not streamed from an ogg file.
The soundtrack is 16 voices with mutivoices (more than one sound over a keyboard), the effects are another 16 channels on top of that. They are just being used as sample playback, but they could be synth too...

3.3mb for the soundtrack

One thing to note is the initial disk loading - the light flickers at the correct time. as does the shader on the menus - timed to perfection...

V1.04b upped for MacOS Catalina:

This does not change anything apart from removing the security dialog when run. Please give it a test and let me know if it works - My fingers are crossed on this one

Yep, it's fixed now. What's the pause button, Adam? I'm going to set fire to your mailbox, if you don't tell me soon.

@ Xerra check out the itch.io page I've upped a new version especially for you 

press P when in the game to more or less toggle pause everything...
