Re: Flagon Bird

Thanks for the great comments! :D Maybe some music on the title screen and some effects would have been nice, I cobbled together some last minute music and effects but wasn't happy with them. Hopefully should be back for v1.1. Does anyone have any useful links for coding 6-bit sound? would it be pos...

Re: Flagon Bird

Thanks! :D I've been feeling nervous about posting it. I get high scores, (when I'm in the zone), and low scores too. Hope I haven't made it too frustrating? Or is that the point? LOL Testing on my Dragon today I was pleased with how smooth the screen update looks. Under PC emulation on a 60Hz displ...

Re: New Dragon 32/64 Software

Hi.

I've uploaded a little Dragon/CoCo game I've been working recently.

It's my first attempt at anything like this. If you watch the title screen, I've included some `thanks' to users who have helped me along the way.

Cheers.

Flagon Bird

Hi. Flagon Bird is a game I've been working on in my spare time in order to learn how to program the Dragon using assembly language. I noticed many of the older computers and consoles had Flappy Bird clones so I thought I'd do a demake for the Dragon and CoCo. It's missing sound and a bit of polish ...

Re: Dragon Setup

Cool, thanks for the info.

Just noticed Retro Computer Shack sell composite video A/V leads for the Dragon. Should do the trick. :)

Re: Dragon Setup

Hi sixxie.

Sounds like it should work then. I'll play about with it some more.

How about video? What kind of display/connection is your Dragon using?

Dragon Setup

Hi. I bought a cheap Dragon 32 recently, eagerly hooked it up to a CRT TV, (via an old RF cable), and tried loading a WAV from my Android tablet. Unfortunately this didn't work, although why I'm not sure. I tried loading at different volume settings but the Dragon didn't appear to be picking up an a...

Hi.

If you're interested in Assembly language programming on the Dragon I'd recommend reading `Inside the Dragon' .
