Update 5/30/2018 - Go to http://slydogstudios.org/ and grab yourself the demo of Babel Blox if you'd like to check it out!

Hey all, I've been working on a game called Babel Blox where you play the role of God, and try to stop the people from constructing the Tower of Babel. You can view the manual online right now if you would like to check it out:

Here are a few pics to hold you over until I get all the music done and some video for you to check out:






 

Looks cool, dude.

Amazing and creative as always!

Old timey NES look to it. I like it!

MOAR LANGUAGES!!!  

Very cool concept. Intriguing.

The current list is English, German, Italian, Spanish, Swahili, Japanese, Greek, Latin, Hebrew and French. Transliteration is used for the wildly different character sets in some languages, as mentioned in the manual : )

Doooope  

There is now a demo ROM available for Babel Blox. It's on the Sly Dog Studios website http://slydogstudios.org/...

Pretty cool! Although, my color blindness makes it harder than it should be to tell the difference between French and Spanish... but that's just me haha. Maybe color could be user-configurable, like language?
Also... THIS!

Hahaha Yeah that one cracks me up every time I've seen it pop up. Actually had to make a routine that will accept either A or B in instances where the languages share words hehe

I'll look for some real estate on the options screen for color selection. Might be a good idea. Thanks!

If you're ready to check out the tunes, the NSF is now available at the website! http://slydogstudios.org/...

Thanks Rob! Awesome Tunes!

Pretty cool concept! If only the Wisdom Tree games were that good  
I'd love to see more languages as well

Very cool demo.
Take that, people of different nationalities! Hey, this game is pretty fun...

Full game available for download at my site. Forgot to update this thread yesterday.

Aw cool, thanks! Will def give this a spin.

Very cool man. Great work. Love what you do!

Can't wait to give it a play!

Rob making big moves!

Can't wait to rain down some punishment. XD

Hi Roth. I get a Map1E file not found error on my PowerPak for the full version. Dunno what to do. I'm pretty sure l ran into this before somewhere.

Do you have The Fox's power mappers? I believe the rom is mapper 30.

It should work since you were able to beta test Larry back in the day, since it's a UNROM512 game, but make sure that you're using the same mapper file on your Powerpak that you used back then.

edit: I look for the mapper file for 30 minutes and Tim beats me to the explanation. Haha. Couldn't find the file though, sadly.

Aw damn. Yeah, I don't believe there's PowerPak support for mapper 30 currently. Gonna have to check it out on the PC.

Look up Power Mappers. I think 30 works except for saves.

Thanks. I double checked but mapper 30 is not included in thefox' power mappers. :/


Oh man. I just had a great time going back through that thread. The mapper for most of the Larry betas was (modified?) 02. Of which, I understand 30 is derivative with flash save functionality. I was only able to run the UNROM version in fceux. (That took me a while to remember all of that.  ) Fceux is fine and all, I just prefer playing on the TV.

I'm pretty stupid when it comes to this stuff. Is there a way I can edit the header to use 02?

Anyways. I ended up just listening to Carly Rae Jepsen and reading an old copy of the Ball St. Journal tonight instead.
