The last game is basically Yoomp! (Atari 800).
The 3D effect is accomplished via color palette cycling, a very old and common trick. It’s responsible for the famous 3D bouncing ball demo on the Amiga and the old Windows ‘star field’ screen saver.
Basically, you have a line of incremental colors, and swap the palette that define those colors to one in which they are shifted. The result is the illusion of movement.
While a lot of great graphical tricks can be done by predrawing graphics and then changing the palette, none of them are possible on the Atari 2600 because it has neither a framebuffer to store the predrawn graphics, nor a multiple-entry palette to change. The underlying code may be using a similar concept in software to calculate the graphics, but it's absolutely redrawing the full screen every frame, because there's literally no other option on the 2600.
@@Nezuji it’s not predrawing anything.
@@Nezuji The Atari has color registers that can be changed at-wlll, and mid-line color changes for all pixels. No framebuffer needed.
@@redleader7988The 2600 has 4 colour registers, each hardwired to one of the player 0 sprite/missile, the player 0 sprite/missile, the playfield/ball, and the background. This is not an arrangement that allows for placing arbitrary pixels in arbitrary palette colours and then creating the illusion of animation by cycling that palette.
@@Nezuji Two sprites overlaying playfield pixels would give you 8 pixels of 3 colors in any combination to cycle. Then, you could copy these and change the shape and color several times per line for some interesting combinations. Interlacing adds more color possibilities in NTSC as well.
Thank you for making these videos. Exciting that the Atariage scene is publicised this way.
Wow, some truly impressive stuff still happening on the Atari 2600! Great video, and I've got to try some of these out ASAP!
Ahoy boys, rejoice, the captain bring us a fruitful loot
Lol, always with the seafaring puns
Woah, that track on the last game is crunchy and banging!
cool video. I know all of these games. Would buy several. The last one is very impressive.
I love the last one. I was a fan of Kula world for PlayStation as well.
Great video 👍
This was a cool list, fun to watch.
Nice, now i got more homebrews to add to either my physical cart collection or to my SD cart
myst and zelda on the 2600 is insanity 🤯
next up, call of duty
Stay Frosty, Space Rocks and Galagon are all great but my favorite homebrew so far is Toy Shop Trouble. Perfect way to end the video btw. ;)
Toy Shop Trouble is a good choice for a favorite. Stay Frosty 2 might beat it for me.
Nice montage of Pollock paintings. Oh, that was myst.
LOL
Great video! Appreciate the links!
Does the bowling guy moonlight as a plumber?
Wait a second....hm..
Zeep! looks like Jump! on the Amiga .
"As far as nosehair games go, this is near the top of the list."
Yeah, WarioWare Touched is hard to beat.
Lol
bro thx so much!!! can u make best horror roms?
I've played the original bowling so that is impressive.
Also its a few years old now but I would check out the super mario bros. port
Have you?
@@alkohallick2901 many moons ago yes
Myst is absolutely crazy, where can I buy it or download it?
