Survival Horror

The Calcs can achive 4 level (some calcs can have

greyscale, and I think it some cool survival horror games came out for the calcs. The closest thing I've seen is Desolate (blood and all) but I realy think a game like Resident Evil or Silent Hill or Clock Tower would be neat...post your ideas of what would be neat to see. I have always thought a flashlight that limits your vision to a narrow beam would be cool, especialy if there were bright 'reflections' when the light hits head on something. A gritty, dirty, filth littered enviroment wouldnt hurt either.

is this supposed to be 3D?

over head would likely look the best and be easiest, but if anyone ever makes a decent greyscale raycasting package for the 83+/SE, it would be possible.

i assume its not basic, right?

no likely (unless you can super optimise basic so it can produce multi-level greyscale and produces shadows and manage complex enemy AI in a timely fasion)

just imagine how it would look with a flashlight limitation...wait, I made one http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v491/ ... ample2.bmp
It would be realy freaky if your battery slowly died and it it got continously dimmer

Wow even cooler, but now this would absolutely need to be asm and keep in mind that the 83+ LCD cannot do Blinded by the Dark

because it's a slow driver that need a delay everytime its accesed and it doesnt have a memory mapped display

Ive never played blinded, and I have a SE

oh...no, I was thinking just a cone of vision, not a full raycasted map

Oh, well, that might be possible, but I am not sure again, as it has never been tried. Also try to not double-post without a signifiant amount of time between your two post
