Preview video: Hyperborea (Resurrected) #3
Daniel 'Daytona675x' Müßener is in the process of continuing "Hyperborea", a project started four years ago and interrupted in the meantime (YouTube videos) (amiga-news.de reported). Technically, the game is as good as finished. Changes of the third preview video:
- fat laser shot: this is your secondary weapon. It's stronger than the spread-shot, but - guess what - doesn't spread. Also, your ship moves at half speed when this is fired. Very good to dodge dense bullet curtains.
A double-click toggles between the two weapon types. Don't worry: your gun will still continue firing when you shortly lift your thumb for this action.
- sprite priorities: in 2p mode the player / player-shot sprites' priorities are alternating each frame now. So in even frames all the stuff of player 1 is drawn on top of player 2 and in odd frames player 2 and its shots occlude player 1. This effectively results in both player-ships and -shots being visible all the time.
Before this change player 1 and its shots always overpainted all the 2nd player's stuff.
- a logo screen ;)
- main menu (not fully functional as of yet)
