Parallax scrolling, Shadow of the PureBasic (=P)
« on: December 27, 2007 »


Hello everyone, I did some tests when I started to learn PB 5 months ago and here an interesting one that could help other PB beginners. Sorry for the French comments, few words are in english. Should be easy to figure out what I'm doing.
(I didn't put credits, but everybody should know SOTB ;P)

How the hell haven't you released your things?

I can think of at least 5 active groups that would love to have code of this quality.
Just because it looks old school doesn't mean it is hated by everyone.
This is really really good.

I my mind SOTB is a classic for scrollers, because of this web site http://sotb.free.fr/index_en.html (goodies section) There's even Analogue's blitz version and the amazing 20 lines java script by P01. I didn't though I could release a SOTB intro as a demoscene production, I even posted it back in the French PB forum, I wanted to share something with DBF :-X
I'd a think with your nice snow gfx. Maybe one could try to use it in this code.

Thanks for the nice feedback. ;)

Hi Va!n, somebody on the PB forum said that there was an older version, it must be yours. Also I founded another version in PB by the same author (I can't remember his name or where I got the files) who did a Blitz version before (it was looking the same, with reflexion on the water)

Can't say enough thanks to Maxx, he makes me joined Dawn demo group. Now I think I understand why Shockwave was upset, so I apologize. I've respect for any real work on any level or school, now I can be goofy.

Also thanks Benny, I did mention you in the circular scrolly. ;) WillXmas was create with PB.
(quite hard to read but not unreadable)
