The low-poly racing game, developed by Polish indie developer Pixel Perfect Dude , feels like a love letter to the PlayStation 1 era of rally games, where you could actually name the top drivers and the cars they drove. “Ah Racing portfolio Studio Perfect Pixel Dude, based in the city of Kalisz, Poland, was founded in 2013.

Atari ST Programming: STOS BASIC Sprite Movement

Retro Game Coders

APRIL 29, 2022

In the last part of this STOS BASIC Tutorial we loaded a sprite but it just sat there, let’s fix that … One of the ways that STOS BASIC helps us to build interactive programs and games is in the sprite movement features because they are not only easy, but they do their thing without our constant input. Simple STOS Sprite Movement.

Of course once we start building full level scenes and maps, we won’t just be using a repeating tile! Collision Detection and Game Over. We almost have everything we need to build a basic game, all apart from a way for the game to be over that is! STOS includes three built-in collision detection options.

Module 3: Attack of the Snake (Lesson 10)

SEPTEMBER 8, 2023

It’s a slow build, just like the original snake. And the way to do that is by altering the collision mask on our block. Now, we haven’t talked about collision masks yet, so let’s do a quick overview of them and we’re going to dive way deeper into them in the next module where we make our space game.

The engine should be able to render and simulate 200+ lightweight game objects -- frame-animated sprites with simple collision, no fancy physics or shaders. Phaser: seems popular enough with decent TypeScript support, but I want the option of building out to a native executable without a weird Electron wrapper or something.
