Mac-Yun-Soft (Kemal Yun) has released a new game written in TNT: "Retrogames #1: Maze-Craze" features four different maze games in the style of old Atari VCS games. The player can choose between three different graphics-styles: single colour ultra-retro style, 4-bit Atari VCS-like style and a slighty better 8-bit "Atari 800 / C-64" style. The games are simple and fun but very challenging. In the downloadable demo, all four games can be played up to a certain level. Available for download at the Mac-Yun-Soft homepage. |

New TNT-game sourcecode available!

Kemal Yun from Mac-Yun-Soft, a new TNT user, has just uploaded a first small TNT game "Aztek's Revenge". It's a fun platformer in which you have to collect treasures and avoid spiders. The source-code is well documented and uses music, sound, sprites and moan. It makes a great example for learning how to do a platformer and is fun to play too. Please note that the source is for learning purposes only and is still copyrighted by the author. Feel free to learn the different techniques used but don't adapt the game or source code for your own game. You can also easily add new levels by drawing maps and adding the data-lines as explained in the source-code. Feel free to send new levels to the author. And, btw, change the starting-level to 1 before you play (in the startgame procedure). |

Druid - A uDevGame 2003 Entry
|
|
|
|
Druid was made by Miles de la Hunty for the uDevGame 2003 Competition using, you guessed it, TNT Basic.
It features weather effects, intelligent enemies, environmental and panning sounds, 3 original music tracks, animated menus and backgrounds, and nice colourful graphics, and once Network Play is implemented (To be included in version 1.1), it will utilize pretty much the entirity of TNT Basic's functionality (Besides Moan).
So download and enjoy Druid, and feel free to download the Source, which is located in the Directory. And be sure to vote for Druid in the uDevGame 2003 Competition! |

Bug fix for Mac OS X 10.3
|
|
|
|
A bug has been identified that prevents image bank editing in the Hieroglyph editor using drag and drop under Mac OS 10.3. This bug has been fixed, and this fix will appear in the TNT Basic 1.21 release, which will be announced shortly.
In the meantime, so our users can continue to edit their image banks under Mac OS 10.3, an updated version of Hieroglyph can be downloaded below. You need to already have TNT Basic 1.2 installed. This updated Hieroglyph will work under all other OS versions also. |

TNT Basic 1.2 Released!
|
|
|
|
TNT Basic 1.2 has finally arrived
This version fixes many bugs, including source code printing not working, Genesis map editor windows not redrawing correctly and the 'Pressed' command not working under Mac OS X 10.2x.
We've added a host of new commands this version, including keyboard access commands, which allow you to work with keyboard input very easily. In particular you can read text strings entered by the player making implementing high score tables easier than ever.
TNT Basic 1.2 contains over 15 individual bug fixes and over 30 new commands.
A detailed list of all the changes for this version can be found here.
Finally I'd like to say a big thank you to the TNT Basic community for their continued ideas, critiques and bug reports, without which TNT Basic wouldn't be half of what it is today.
Thanks! |

Well, almost...
Apologies to anyone that has been trying to contact either myself, Mark Tully, or John Treece-Birch at TNT Software recently, as we've been unable to receive email. Basically our service provider has been making some upgrades and has apparently broken our accounts somehow. Furthermore, I personally have moved house, and have been without an internet connection to even get on line and sort things out with our ISP - hence the long absence from the forums and email...
Anyway, glad to see the community still thriving, hopefully we'll be able to recover our email soon, until then apologies to anyone who has registered in that time, we'll process your registrations as soon as we can! |
