In Progress Lucia's Run

The project is currently under development.
Yeah I know it is not a layer, but an entity - this is why I've suggest to make it to flip randomly :)

Keep the good work, buddy.
 
I love this. And good call on making new sprites for Lucia. I think the characters from Wild Guns are too recognizable.

For years I've been thinking of making something like this, but of course my version would have been way too limited and rudimentary. I'd basically have entities spawn at the edges of the screen and zoom in while they scroll down. Glad to see you tackle this type of gameplay, DC  :)

You're one of the best creators around, so that's very high praise. Thank you mersox!

It may be a few more weeks before I can show some progress. I finally got back into updating the engine, and that's where the time to work on my module projects was coming from. I'm still doing bits of it here and there though, so keep an eye out.

Thanks DC! That's very kind of you.

I'm very curious to see what's inn store for this this mod, as well as the engine updates  :)

Looks good. also CVS style shading si pretty faster to do (at least for me.)
Considering the small size of sprites the result is pretty good!
I like it.

I missed your feedback nedflandeurse, thank you. I'm not as fast as some, since sprite editing is more of a side skill for me. While I'm here, I should probably note it will be a few more weeks before I can do much. I have a big work project to finish (migrating an 8000 page website to new server and upgrading the code from PHP 5.2 to 8.0). It's been ongoing for a while, but needs done by mid January, so pretty much everything OpenBOR related other than posting in the forum has ground to a halt. Soon as I can I'll be back at it.  :)

Hi Damon, I'm just letting some ideas here; I always like the SNES Bastard!! fighting style but I find that this can be better exploited for a boss fight (see at 4:29):

Extraordinary Maiden Magatsuhi: Second Rite is a shooting style like Space Harrier with a nice lock-on feature (maybe hard to realize in Openbor?):

Good luck with your project migrating and I'll follow your progress on this nice Openbor mod ;).

 
I will be glad to test some features in Openbor like this front view in this Contra fangame (starts at 2:38):

or this tunnel in Virtual Bart game on Megadrive (begins at 1:20):

The sensation of speed is really nice here.
 
A bit different, but few years ago, Thinking aout Openbor,
I thought first about a Punch out game...
Then about a game like "The Super Spy"...
Something similar to that 2nd one would not be that hard to code... even for me... ^^
 
Here's a roughing to show OpenBOR generating scrolling, 3D curved surfaces like old school racing games. It's an array of sub-screens (one per scan-line), offset and scaled to produce a simulated raster manipulation. The next step is adding hills and valleys, and a terrain map to control them.
