MR. WONG
A downloadable game
Hi mate:
I have never used double buffering in a game and cpctelera has allowed me to try it out. Abandoned due to poor memory management (array issues). In the next project I'll use the experience.
I remember back in the 90's that me and my sister spent hours with this game on the cpc 472. Therefore, I set myself the goal of cloning it with c language with the invaluable help of cpctelera. Based on the original Mr. Wong's Loopy Laundry (Artic Computing Ltd, 1984) it is a simple platform game, where the player must keep the business safe. It is a laundry where you must pick up each item of clothing and throw it down the chute that leads to the laundry cart before it is washed.
You have several high levels that you will have to go through. But it won't be an easy task. Various kinds of objects with bad intentions will try to prevent you from doing your job: crazy irons, bags, soap bubbles.
What they don't know is that you have a hidden weapon. A starch gun, which will be limited but you will be able to reload it when the spare appears randomly during the game.
In this version the clothes are hung on the clothesline and the sprites of the enemies are animated
I had the game engine set up to work with different screens and ladders in different places, but I finally gave up.
I'm sharing it here because I invested many hours in perfecting it and trying to make it as close to the original as possible.
Cursor Keys+Space
made in c language with cpctelera and notepad++

1000 lines of code (main.c). Single level. No sound. The sprites are slightly larger than in the original game. Menu instructions are unimplemented

Download link ?
hello, c64masters. I was modifying the code. You should now see the link. Regards
Thanks !
I am trying to run this game in WinAPE and get the following:
What am I doing Wong?
Hi, @itchy2. I use cpce as an emulator, but I have forced the change to mode 0 in the code. Download it and try again, please. Thanks
This worked. :)
Is there Sound or Joystick Control?
hi, mate. I am a novice in cpc programming with cpctelera. I could add sounds if I had some free memory, but I don't know how to control a joystick.
I just wanted to verify that the game was being emulated correctly.
BTW Great Job! :)
thank you very much
