How do you fade in/out to get that discreet step by step fade. Do you manually round a loop to 1 -> 0.75 -> 0.5 -> 0.25 -> 0?

I wanted to fake an old palette shifting fade from the NES/Gameboy era and did exactly something like what you wrote, yeah.

Have you releaased it's source code? If not, how did you manage the slopes?

I have not released the source code no. I'm actually developing a full-scale version of this game right now. It's also called Bobls and is on Steam if you are interested.

The slopes in this classic version are extremely simple and basically only works for 45 degree angles. If I remember correctly, I simply do two or three precise collision_point checks to determine if it's an upwards or downwards going slope and move the player directly according to it, or something like that. It's been a while.

Love it!

Could you upload it for linux?

Hey! Thanks a lot for your interest. This is, by now, an old project, and I unfortunately won't be able to port it to anything else. Future projects will be available on more than just Windows. Have a great day! :)
