This game is done in QBasic....so there's no command like 'Call Interrupt', only 'Call Absolute'

The graphic is suberb. Makes me wonder about the value of my entire work so far. Excelent work!

But the graphic level is above the code quality level. Scrolling is a bit disappointing and the character physics are too rigid.

Still, a great achivement.

It would be best if you converted your main character's x and y position to being stored in floats rather than integers, and then had an actual jump velocity and gravity acceleration. You'd have a proper parabolic jump that way.

Regarding the scrolling - if you'd rather not try scrolling all the time, you could have it a bit like PoP where you walk for a screen and then it slides to the next screen. Might be a bit more episodic that way.

I passed the first and second level in ~7 minutes each. The third level? I'm on my, what, 10th try?
The third level is challenging. Add a save feature, and make more levels like it.
f only life let you press CTRL-Z.

Freebasic is like QB, except it doesn't suck.

The handling makes it hard for me to pass the first level. Actually, I still haven't yet. Then again, that's what was so hard about original Super Mario, right?

:red_marvin: <- that's a robot.
Hey, this games humor is top-notch!
Ok, it doesn't jump in a parabolic way and it doesn't make you fall faster and faster. And it scrolls tile*tile. Heh. Whatever. I really like your game Smile
I've seen better engines, but this is great for qb1.1
You could make it scroll 10 tiles left/right and 6 tiles up/down instead of one tile in each direction, so it doesn't jump a tile all the time when you're falling or walking. And then make the screen center on him as soon as he starts waiting (that foot thing he does when he's idle). That would be perfect... uhm... well, perfect for tile based scrolling Wink
Yeah, great work.

Edit: Oh, and there's just as many O's and B's in Robot Robbery as there are R's Wink
