PD, you should make that game that Tornado Todd (?) called about.

My oblique post above was just to suggest that it might be simpler to just hack an existing ROM, like Double Dragon, with Best Show tiles.  I'm sure one of the FOTs can do pixel art.  You could then play the game in an emulator or in one of the many web emulation frontends.

I can, and would! I'd also happily contribute whatever artistic skills I could to any other FOT project.

All I know is, I played that Dwarf Tossing game last night for about an hour while at work.

FUN!!!

Yeah, I've been playing at least three games a day since I first read this thread. Damn seagulls.

Don't give a turlet about arcade especially "the irritating game". :)

Thanks Tom! The Best show indeed!

I've played Dwarf Wharf a ton, but find those seagulls way too frustrating to continue.

Abolish the arcade!

Dwarf Toss is kind of fun, but I agree that the seagulls are way to annoying to want to play the game for some serious points. 

Feel free to axe it.

Once one of you losers takes down my long-standing high scores in either of those games then you can talk about giving them the ax.

Until then, shut your mouth and know your roles!

You guys just got me addicted to Dwarf Wharf despite your seagull smear campaign.

i could make an extensive FOT game over time, but it wouldnt be action based, more like walking around, figuring out dumb puzzles, finding items, etc.

or if someone wants to team up, i can design the game and someone can program the fighting. anyone good at that stuff?

I'd love to see a Newbridge adventure game!



As for the arcade, I liked it when it was functioning.
