In Topic: Found this video of Space Harrier

Fri Nov 4, 2011 11:26 AM

Hi there! Mathy told me of this thread. I'm the narrator in this video an I have some comments:

1. The Nickname "Rockford" is a nickname I use in another forum (Abbuc.de). I am not ( and never was) the "Rockford" here on AtariAge. I am an A8 user and not an C64 user. I never owned an C64.

2. The explanations are based on a discussion before the begin of this video. Most of the others in the room were C64 user and we talked about the differences between sprites and player-missile graphic. By mistake I took over the "sprites" in my mind while making the presentation. Later I noticed this confusion, but then the video was done and online (I did not put it on youtube). After all, it made it more understandable for the C64 guys. ;)

3. For the presentation used the old demo, because I didn't had a 8MB cart for the final version. I showed it on a real A8 (130XE).

4. Heaven/TGA: Jepp, ich bin Schwabe.

A short summary of the spoken text: I explained, how yout get more than one color for the player (the unlucky "sprite" discussion...), about the speed in this game (this ist the part when an C64 user asked the funny question if it is higher clocked than normal), and about the limitations in colors (this is the part when a C64 user said the C64 version has more colors - Later I saw the C64 version, it has not more colors).

After all the main idea was presenting new games for the A8, but it ended as an discussion about system differences, as always. Because of this I didn't even talked about the history of Space Harrier, about the original programmers and so on.

I'm only gonna mention the people on the picture who's name you might have seen here on AtariAge.

Left side, black Atari T-shirt, Black pants, that's me. The guy with the glasses on the top of his head, thats BigBen, the guy with the ponytail in front of BigBen is Hias. The guy with the black Atari T-shirt "between/above" Hias and BigBen is thorsten_gunther. The guy with the blue Atari T-shirt to Thorsten's right is Bunsen. The guy in the green shirt is Beetle, standing next to him is skr, the guy sitting "below" Beetle is JAC. The guy sitting on the table is Sleepy. I'm not sure if the rest of the guys shown in the picture are known here on AA. Except for GoodbyteXL maybe, who's "visible" above me, the guy who's head is cut of at the ear (only on the photo). I'll post one of the group photo's that were shot on my meetings page soon and put up all the names soon.

sincerely

Mathy

PS I know of at least 4 people who were there of the first time this year that said they 'ld come again next year. The Fujiama bug is highly contagious and that's just how we want it to be. :D

Hi Mathy,

I'm also here on AA - on the photo sitting right before Hias.
