Re: New game project
The blitting is so smooth I can hardly wait to get my hands on this and find out how you did it!
Re: New game project
I don't think I am doing something special, (as I have answered on YT), I have a backbuffer and then use the dirty rectangles technique to blit only what is altered in the buffer. I use unrolled routines and I have about 40K of memory used so I must be careful or I will have to add loops and the smoothness will go away

Oh noes I don't feel very comfortable to share this but here it goes...
Working on the loading screen, it is not an easy task due to the artist's limitations in pixel art and the hardware restrictions This still needs a lot of work.

Re: New game project
Why not use PictConv on a hires image and see how it handles the dithering process?

Indeed, let Dbug help you... he is very good at that!
Re: New game project
I am sorry that everyone found my effort so terrible although I said it still needed a lot of work. I just wanted to show more or less the idea for the presentation screen.
I will be thinking on what to do about this.

I did not mean it was bad, it's just that you seemed to imply that the artist needed helpit is not an easy task due to the artist's limitations in pixel art
Re: New game project
I second that. Draw/compose a nice picture without thinking about color limitations & let converters do their best. Here is what I can get with PictOric with google images about "stealing potions"
