Ty Peter! I actually understood it which is awesome because I never understand programming.

Excellent, I'm really happy to hear that. I've got another bAtari vid out later today just to finish up on the playfields thing and better explain the pfvline and pfhline commands I wasn't sure of.

Great video, I'm glad you are enjoying making a game Peter!

[@RudysRetroIntel]

Excellent video! Looks like you will be making more games! Thanks for sharing

[@8bitsinthebasement]

Thanks Rudy, I hope to make a couple more. I'm really loving getting the hang of bAtari. Loads to learn but lots of fun getting there ;)

I'm really being spoilt by what bAtari can do. I've tried to program Bob on the colour computer and sure I can draw him, animate him and move both him and the beams around but it's all a flickering mess. Looks like I'll have to learn some ML to do better on any other system. BAtari gave me my first game and it showed me how to program in basic plus it's super for writing games on the 2600. It's really a super language to learn with.

Très bonne vidéo, je t'ai envoyé une version Beta de Evil Dungeon sur MO5, via l'adresse mail de ta chaine.

If only i'd had this 4 years ago when I was learning this. 🙃

Have you made any games that I can give a try? It's great that you found the series to be worthwhile, even if it was a couple of years too late to be any good to you ;) Thanks for stopping by.
