I’ve been working on the Atari 8-bit graphics when it comes to the city. I’ve completed completely over hauling the background system. No more multiple images for the background images. There are only 4 textures, one for each moutain. Also, The original 8-bit game has animation on the southern mountain with a river. I’ve added that part to the game. Looks good. Also, added the sun rise and sun set effects from the original 8-bit game. I’ve completed the rain effect in the 8-bit version of the game. Like the other systems, the rain intensity is based on the weather condition. I”m not completely happy with the look. It feels different from the original. Not sure how much more I’m putting into it. But the weather system for the 8-bit and 16-bit are completey now. Feels so much more like the original game. The game is coming together.
