| SkillGrid v1.3 |
| |
| & |
| |
| Press Play on Tape Edition |
| -------------------------- |
| |
| |
| |
| SkillGrid receives one more update, which not only makes |
| is slicker than ever, but also adds a new bonus cell |
| - BEAM/ULTRA - which increases the shapeship firepower |
| so even the nastier boss can be faced with utmost confidence |
| |
| |
| v1.3 (21.05.2022) |
| |
| 1. Added the BEAM/ULTRA cell (shoots a big beam that |
| is equivalent to 5 beams). |
| |
| 2. Moved lateral beams of the triple beam one pixel |
| down (to match the shape of the ultra beam). |
| |
| 3. Reduced by 16.7% the occurrences of the DAMAGE cell. |
| |
| 4. Worked on the music playback: optimized the decoding; |
| optimized the handling of the state; removed the |
| pairing of channels on the same side (which caused |
| the title and game over screens music to play louder |
| than the in-game music - an originally intended effect |
| which I have changed my mind about - and did not |
| really work for channel 3 as that channel cannot |
| sustain 28836.5 Hz). |
| |
| 5. Slightly improved the standard music quality by |
| re-downsampling the data after improving the |
| amplification. |
| |
| 6. Changed the keyboard handling so that it executes |
| from a level 3 interrupt handler instead of a |
| level 2 interrupt handler, in order to work around |
| issues/lockups caused by expansion hardware sending |
| INT2 interrupt requests. |
| |
| 7. Replaced [SPACE] with [LEFT ALT] and [RIGHT ALT] |
| keys as [FIRE] button. |
| |
| 8. Made the startup procedure more robust |
| (especially against audio playback performed with |
| direct hardware access by other programs |
| concurrently). |
| |
| 9. Made various little optimizations. |
| |
| 10. Worked on cells graphics: fixed colors of beams |
| on BEAM/DOUBLE and BEAM/TRIPLE cells; fixed a |
| pixel on the border of the ASTEROIDS, BEAM/DOUBLE |
| and BEAM/TRIPLE cells. |
| |
| 11. Worked on manual and stragegy guide: renamed |
| DOUBLE BEAM and TRIPLE BEAM as BEAMS/DOUBLE and |
| BEAMS/TRIPLE, respectively; added the information |
| for the BEAMS/ULTRA cell; adapted the information |
| for the other BEAMS/* cells; added the BEAMS |
| paragraph; updated the ASTEROIDS, BEAM/DOUBLE |
| and BEAM/TRIPLE cells images; updated the CONTROLS |
| table; fixed the outer antialiasing of the |
| BEAM/TRIPLE, BOOST and BRAKE cells images; fixed |
| the kerning of the last character of the italic |
| strings. |
| |
| 12. Set default tool of manual and strategy guide |
| icons to "Apdf". |
| |
| 13. Updated artwork to reflect the new beams graphics |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| v1.2 |
| |
| 1. Added the PRESS PLAY ON TAPE edition. |
| |
| 2. Made the BOOST cell increase the scrolling speed |
| by just 50% (instead of 100%). |
| |
| 3. Fixed the chasing of the spaceship |
| (due to a bhi in place of a bhs, downwards missiles |
| would chase the spaceship as a consequence of |
| catching the CHASE cell). |
| |
| 4. Improved the "escapes critical" speech warning. |
| |
| 5. Replaced the title screen writings. |
| |
| 6. Worked on the manual: |
| · improved/fixed/extended the setup/launch instructions; |
| · added information relative to the |
| PRESS PLAY ON TAPE edition. |
| |
| 7. Moved history to separate file. |
| |
| 8. Updated/improved installer. |
| |
| 9. Moved 'S' and 'G' one pixel down and inverted pixels |
| at the bottom of 'r' in the small logo in the bonus |
| directory icon for perfect baseline alignment. 10. |
| Added drawer icon where applicable (the real reason |
| is to ensure that the drawers are shown as intended |
| when browsing the CD from Workbench; however, it can |
| be used also as the icon of the drawer the game is |
| installed in - the installer now even asks if the |
| user wants it; this icon had been omitted until now |
| because it is impossible to provide an icon that suits |
| the styles of all the iconsets available for AmigaOS). |
| |
| 11. Improved the icons layout on the CD. |
