This is my attempt at a remake of the Atari 2600 version of Dragonfire. I’ve tried to capture idiosyncratic game feel of the original (slippery acceleration, mostly) for the sake of nostalgia, but the sprites feel a little small on the play area right now.
Completed Tasks
- [v1.1] Upscale sprites in play area
- [v1.1a] Added intro text and some visual flare to highscore screen
Future Updates
- Fine tune gameplay to be closer to the original (possibly read the 6502 source?)
- Polish the sound effects
- Add a “B” mode with game feel tuned to my liking
- Add a “C” mode with my own sprite work and gameplay tweaks to make it feel more modern
To install: unzip contents into the root directory of your SD card, merging the folder /data/dragonbounty into a “data” folder if you have one.
