This game use Allegro 4 and is quite heavy on the blit (which are non accelerated), so I had to code some auto frameskip code (and simplify the fog in first level).

It runs ok now, but on CC/Rebirth, an overclock to 800MHz is advised.

Default keys are:

DPad to move

{X} to Fire

{B} to Jump

But the keys can be modified in option menu (use "Left" to enter a submenu).

Thanks ptitSeb :)

But music is absent.

The pace is not bad (at least on my CC @800 as suggested) but in the GCW-Zero video the game seems more fluid...

i wonder how the Zero porter have optimized it...maybe have an optimized Allegro version ?
 
I think they use stretchblit when not playing at native 320x240 res.


Those are really slow when there is no hw acceleration like with sdl.


So the scaling to fill the screen could be the problem on the Pandora.

Music is midi, and I haven't looked at it, just the little jingle at the map sounded fine for me. There is more (maybe I have to watch the YT of the GWZ port).

About the GWZ, don't forget screen size if really different. Switch (using Option and Video) to 384x224 and you'll see it go fullspeed with no problem (but the picture is too small). Pandora screen is much larger, and Allegro 4 doesn't run super smooth on the Pandora (no notaz's magic here).

:ph34r: 'd by mcobit ;)

*EDIT* Ah yes, I'm missing the Musics indeed. There are Midi, anyone have a easy solution to enable Midi on the Pandora for a Allegro 4 game?

See the alice in clicheland pnd or tetris queen. There are patches I created for allegro and the cfg. Put both in the pnd :)


Edit: take the one that sounds better for this game.

I have Timidy PND installed on my PND and it works with other games that use it.. However it doesn't seem to help with this game.


Edit: Damn Mcobit loves that Ninjaing  :ph34r:  at least he has a solution.

Yes ...forgot the resolution is different.

Lowering it really speed up the game...but it's too small.
