Retrofan Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 (edited) Is it possible to make a VCS game with vertical parallax scrolling? I think it would be wonderful to have a game like Boinxx (ball, platforms, vertical scrolling, extras, enemies) for the 2600. animated mockup: (but the platform has to scroll, too) Edited January 24, 2008 by Retrofan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SpiceWare Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 (edited) That would be easy to do. Only tradeoff is the extra CPU time to update the background color on every scan line may conflict with things you'd like the display kernel to do.
