Topic: Petit Computer

I doubt it derserves a spot on the wiki.

I was hoping someone could upload the qr codes for me... It would be a pain in the *** though. The version i released was the wrong one. That was beta xD

So, I have been developing for a time now, and have come up with an amazing concept- sprite loading. Basically, it has a que of sprites. When the que has been filled, it will stop loading until it detects that one of the loaded sprites has left the screen. Then it will find the next sprite to handle and load it, based on perhaps x or y location. The data per sprite is stored on different arrays with a generic loading function that will handle these arrays to pull it up. If you like this, please feel free to tell me. If you have suggestions, also tell me. (P.S. I have made a game with this, though you have never heard of it because I haven't uploaded it and am unable to anyway. It's a Geometry Dash clone)

@Lego-Meister The only problem is, if you look at the code, is the way i have the snake move.

is anyone still on here who remembers me? The forum looks a little dead

Hello, hello? None of you probably remember me, but I used to be called Urchin8, or Vulpixel. I recently found out there was a redownload button (gasp) so I could get this again. I would like to let you know I am working on an upgrade for Petit Forest. That's really it. However, getting this again felt like being reunited with an old friend. There is a reason that even a year later it still holds 3rd place and 116 hours in activity log. (Animal Crossing and Pokemon have sucked 1st and 2nd.)

@Espurr
Why did you delete it in the first place?

@Francis333

Idek I think it was because I was getting frustrated.

Hello, @Boot. I remember you, but only because I used to read a ton of pages. I wasn't there when you were.

Anyway, just a little hint-hint for anyone wanting to create long text files: There are as many colors in a GPSET to use as there are characters-256. You could use a GRP file!

For some reason I spent several hours making this little engine.

You can have up to 30 items in the little cave and move them with the touch screen. Also the stones automatically join to form "walls".

Yeah, I have no idea. Maybe I'll make a little pet sim out of it or something.

I remember myself a year ago when I was more foolish, thinking that I could hype up a game and magically make it immediately. But my DSi doesn't charge anymore and I don't care about it enough to fix it.
Seriously, I'm looking back at myself a year ago and I'm realizing that I spent more time hyping the game than actually developing it.

Wow, this place is really dead.

Hey, @Morpheel are you still working on that? its pretty cool looking... these forums used to be so active... now its like a post a month...

I got stuck trying to decide what to make with it, and then kinda lost interest.

It may return some day though!

Oh, thats cool. Is there any way i could have the qr codes of what it currently is, or is it just a little too early to do so? @Morpheel

I'm currently away from home (and won't return until a few weeks), but sure, when I return and get the time, I'll share the little engine.

It's not too impressive, though.

Ok, thanks @Morpheel i just wanted to check it out a little. I remember when you made like the top games that everone played, like petit farm

Wow, this forum has pretty much died But, I am still working on PTC stuff because apparently, SmileBASIC is coming "2015". I need to maintain my skills anyway, so I'm working on a Pokemon clone (though with like 8 pokemon and a region with a total of about 3 towns. But I plan to make the post game good enough that I can overlook the quality of the game. Perhaps even with local multiplayer (though that would be really annoying, and I don't know anyone with petit computer.)

EDIT:
Alright, so this post is completely unrelated to what I'm about to say, but I didn't want to double post, SO, here we go. I released my first PTC game! Though it is just to see if the editor I found online worked, I didn't choose a piece of complete crap, rather a game that is actually good with poor visuals and very few lines of code. Here is the link to the petit computer wiki site that it is on: http://petitcomputer.wikia.com/wiki/Laser! Go here for the download. It is a game. About dodging lasers. I'll add more lasers, but for now it only has one laser on the screen, so it isn't that difficult to avoid, but if you want to increase your score, you must collect coins. This is where dodging is hard, as controlling your x puts you at higher risk to be shot. Just play it and see what I mean. I'll now release stuff, but from what I've heard, SmileBASIC is coming out soon! https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAADVHkZOfthPQ

It's kind of sad to see this community die out. My DSi doesn't charge anymore and I certainly don't care about it enough to do anything about it (I don't really care much about Nintendo itself anymore, which is rather strange to say considering I'm on a website called NintendoLife). I have considered attempting to do something to fix this, such as getting a new charger or something primarily for PTC, but I think since I'm learning C# at the moment and have other school related things to focus on that wouldn't be a very good idea.

We're just all staring at our 3DSs, waiting for SmileBasic to come out. But don't worry, even after SmileBasic comes out, Petit Computer will remain. It'll be retro cool then.

Too bad it can't be bought anymore. I'm glad i purchased it a second time for my DSi.

Anyway, if you get a 3DS or 2DS and your DSi can work while connected, you can still transfer it.
