Second Dimension releases

[dra600n]

Hey everyone! It's been a while since I've posted here, but I have a large update of things for everyone! I want to say thanks to TrekMD for giving me a hand with my account issues

Anyway...

Last year I had started working on Handy Harvy, however that ended up getting delayed as I kept thinking of "what would an updated compiler be like", and decided to make one. For the last 6 months, I had been working on a new compiler for the Sega Genesis that uses the BEX ASM library, but adds new commands and a more feature rich environment. If anyone is interested in programming Sega Genesis games in BASIC, take a look at SecondBASIC (http://www.second-dimension.com/sbasic/)

Next up is since the compiler was finished a few weeks ago, I've resumed development on Handy Harvy (completely rewritten in SecondBASIC). While there's still quite a bit to do, I'm hoping to have it finished by the end of the month and into the beta testing stages, with a tentative August release date.

And finally, coming this summer will be Second Dimension's first publication team up with Studio Vetea and his Bomb on Basic City game!

As you can see, it is very similar to the Mad Bomber game I was going to do (which is one of the reasons why I had stopped that project) and is a familiar game to those who have played Ocean Detox (and similar games).

Bomb on Basic City is inspired by Bomb on Pixel City, another great game by friends of Studio Vetea!

Cheers!

Fantastic work pal, really cracking work.  Does the new compiler reduce game development time?

Will all your releases be physical?

It'll help reduce development time, but not by a whole lot, though I suppose it depends on what you're doing

You got it

I have plenty of stuff I can show you, depending on where you'd want to focus on (development process/progress or final product), as well as anything on Bomb on Basic City Let me know!

Feel free to lead that. What ever you feel will give the wow factor.
