(WIP) Kale＇s WIP - 2 Days Drill - 模擬器

2011.04.05

I’ve passed last few days into converting the Taito F3 video chip
(TC0630FDP) from 32-bit to 16-bit parallelism. Why a masochistic task
like that, you might ask? Because I’ve realized that by simply
converting 2 Minutes Drill to tilemaps, and the HW really looked a bit
too complex to my tastes … 2 days of coding later and this game shows
huge improvements, mainly because it uses lots of zooming / rowscroll
effects.

Game is still not playable mainly because it’s an half mechanical /
half videogame, but oh well …

As for the other news – the rumors are true. Starting from this dev
cycle I’m the new MAME lead coordinator, taking over duties for Aaron
Giles. Some generic guidelines of regarding what I expect to do for the
project will follow soon, but for now I’ll take the chance to thank
Aaron for all the work he has done for the MAME project as a contributor
and coordinator for so many years.
