The Temple of the Mighty Bague

Ok, I’ve done some more modifications to the full screen rendering setup so that my framework uses quartz hardware acceleration for the 2D stuff. A couple of the guys at RetroSpec have suggested I use OpenGL for all the 2D stuff but, given that I’m doing this for fun, I’m not entirely sure I want to learn a whole new branch of computer science Seems like a lot of hard work to me!

Another decision I’ve made is that DD isn’t going to scroll, as some people have suggested it should. I want to retain the flip-screen nature of the game so I can put in lots of nice starwarsy scene transitions Next up, I need to have a good old gaming session (with an infinite lives poke) so I can get me head around the mechanics of exactly how everything works….
