Planet Virtual Boy

Didn't Kri55e run it on real hardware - with a FlashBoy?

Good job Pong Invaders is a really fun game. Pong, and Space Invader are two of my fav games.

I'm testing it in RealityBoy 0.84, but there's no visible ball...

Occasionally an alien just disappears.

I also noticed that they don't drop bombs on you unless you move.


I re-downloaded RealityBoy from here:

... and the ball appeared!

But the front end wasn't the same anymore - do we have another version somewhere here?

Nice flow, the aliens should move all the way to the edges before turning though, and the bounce on the left wall is a little glitchy, there's a speedboost before it returns to normal speed.

I'm very impressed though!!

Well done. It's closer to Breakout than Pong.

A score counter would be a good addition, as well as automatic respawning of enemies when you clear a screen.

EDIT: I just noticed you forgot to change the ponginvaders.vbh file.

... and a wider play area, and soundeffects, and 3D effects... ;-)

What's the plan, are higher levels supposed to be faster, wider play area, different types of enemies?

This one hasn't had anything new for a while, so I went ahead and tried the first version on my FlashBoy Plus. Unfortunately all I got was a black screen. It's fun through emulators thought!

Whoops, my mistake, forgot to pad the file.
It runs now!
Graphically it is a bit buggy, however the main issue is that you cannot see the ball.



Any updates usch?

It runs wazzal?

I just tried it from the competition pack and nothing seems to have happened since May 2010...

With FlashBoy Plus (on a real unit) the calibration screen has graphic bugs on the background pattern. No ball is visible in game, alien shots get stuck in mid air, occasional flicker on the aliens. Nice idea but not playable on a real machine.
