Some of you probably noticed that the latest version of Kirby PC doesn''t work. I found the problem and fixed it, so it should work perfectly now Also, I uploaded a gradient signature tool I wrote, as well. Enjoy! lntakitopi@aol.com | http://www.geocities.com/guanajam

I''m a Kirby fan, too. Kirby PC looked good. Sadly, it ran slow on my PC. It still looked good from the test.

I''ll try to work on the speed. Was it really choppy, or did things just move slowly but smoothly?

Everything went smooth, and the graphics weren''t choppy. It was just slow.

The graphics were all done by me. The music was from vgmusic.com. I think I''ll go add some enemies and a frame stabilizer

Looks very promising indeed!

Here are a few tips/comments:
-Try to make an extra ''jump'' button (like CTRL), it is very annoying when you try to jump without sucking up air
-Let the player duck on falldown, only when the velocity is bigger than a specific value

The game runs a little slow on my pentium II-300. Is this full-speed or is there something that stalls the game?

Good luck with your project

The jump button has to be the same as the fly button for it to be Kirby But I''ll look into it

Thanks, I didn''t find that problem earlier.

No, it just doesn''t have anything that stabilizes it. (No framerate-delta-anythings.) It just runs as fast as it can. For instance, I just updated my video drivers and now my monitor can get up to 100 Hz. Now it''s too fast for me!

Oh, good news, too! I''ll say this real loud:

KIRBY 64 IS OUT!!!

I don''t have any space to download the game, dumb MoE!

Well, the screen shots look awesome! Keep up the awesome work!

OK, I fixed it. It should run at the right speed now.

How the heck does your computer run with less than 244 KB free?
