Eventually, I couldn't stay away from developing for long.

Welcome back!

Meanwhile, I released Stacken Blochen, Towards Infinity, Basic Instinct, The All-Seeing and Ritualist. (Last 2 from weekend long hackathlons, Ritualist was sadly left rather buggy, but "complete enough" to prove that the game concept sucks, and isn't worth any further development).

Also, Basic Instinct is a C64 Basic demo (#1 at Zoo 2015), just to make your expectations low enough

And of course, there might be something new coming this year aswell...

To begin the year appropriately, I have just released v1.7 of QUOD INIT EXIT. Like always, it's free for everyone to enjoy Get it from its new page on itch.io (there are also AmigaOS 4 and Windows installers that take care of everything for those who don't want to fiddle with emulators).



Changes list:
* added clock (slows everything down);
* added pill (protects from poison);
* slown down score decrease;
* recalibrated probabilities of items;
* changed Zampo and turbofart design to match the one in QIE II;
* changed randomization logic;
* randomized platforms at each restart, so that they are always different;
* added fried egg;
* added a little background animation;
* touched up / updated HUD;
* removed game over message so that, at the end, the final score remains displayed;
* sped up a bit intro/outro messages;
* adapted to newer and better framework;
* optimized.

In the past 10 months or so I have been working hard on MAH v2.0. In the process, I have improved the framework that it is based on and that QUOD INIT EXIT uses as well. As a result, I adapted QUOD INIT EXIT to it, and I couldn't resist making the changes listed below. I hope you'll enjoy this new version of the game.

Get it (for free) from:
* itch.io: https://retream.itch.io/quod-init-exit
* CSDb: http://csdb.dk/release/?id=159349

Although the game is for C64, AmigaOS 4 and Windows users can install and play it as if it were a native application thanks to the install packages available on itch.io

CHANGELOG

1. Fixed mice appearing in the HUD (and maybe even worse things) due to beyond-boundary writes.
2. Fixed flagging of subsequent pill catches (there were actually counted up to 255, although that was not visible in the HUD after catching the poison).
3. Fixed screen initialization ($d016 was not initialized).
4. Fixed poo drop (if started when Zampo was in mid air, the poo would stop in mid air as well).
5. Changed points handling: now they start decreasing only after catching the toilet roll, but do it at twice the speed.
6. Changed pause controls: now [F1] pauses and unpauses.
7. Added return to BASIC by means of [RESTORE].
8. Touched up dawn, morning, and sunset skies graphics.
9. Touched up pill icon.
10. Shifted vertical alignment of text characters 1 line down.
11. Changed intro text.
12. Changed scrolltext.
13. Made a few optimizations (in particular, moved all the variables to the zero page).
14. Added a separate loader (based on the Covert Bitops Autoconfiguring Loader/Depacker) that loads the game more quickly from disk (the game itself is still a single file that can be loaded directly, so who uses other speed-up solutions does not need this loader).
15. Added EasyFlash version.
16. Touched up manual.
17. Fixed uninstall icon for Windows package.
18. Updated skies in icons for AmigaOS/Windows packages.
19. Fine-tuned CRT settings for AmigaOS/Windows packages.

Zampo is now free to turbofart around and eat away!

QUOD INIT EXIT IIm has been released 5 years ago for a minimum price of $1.99 (but right after the release, pirate versions started spreading). For a short while, I continued on developing its bigger brother, QIE IIo, but then development came to a halt because I focused on MAH (again for the Commodore 64), Blastaway (for PC) and on a number of Amiga projects (all available from the RETREAM page). Less than 1.5 years ago, I returned briefly to QIE IIo, improved/expanded it a little bit and made a preview available to the owners of QIE IIm. However, I feel guilty for having kept the project frozen for so long and because I'm not going to resume it in the foreseable future due to the fact that I'm busy with Amiga games (but this doesn't mean that I've given up: I'm absolutely determined to finish the game).
A couple of days ago, somehow the idea of making QIE IIm available for free popped into my head: I felt immediately relieved at the thought alone, and it took me a while to figure out why: I guess that it's because doing so soothes the feeling of guilt towards the Commodore 64 community.

In short: if you don't have it already, go get QIE IIm it - it's free! And, by the way, don't forget to download also the preview of QIE IIo: among other things, it includes also the level of QIE IIm, but in a bigger and richer form!

https://www.retream.com/QUOD_INIT_EXIT_IIm

As a closing note, I'd like to thank from the bottom of my heart all those who purchased QIE IIm, especially those who added a tip (some of which have been enourmously generous)!

I totally forgot I had told you about QUOD INIT EXIT II!
Well, over time there have been quite a number of changes - quick recap:
* I just released an updated version of QUOD INIT EXIT IIm;
* I resumed the work on QUOD INIT EXIT IIo (recent-ish preview).

Quite some progress has been done. This video shows a little bit of all that happened since the previous one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0cmg__n4j0

Also, the game now has a page of its own on itch.io, where it's possible to follow the progress and download previews: https://retream.itch.io/quod-init-exit-iio (the currently available preview is quite old, but I plan to release a new one soonish).
