Lasers of Mars

Performance Update


As some of you may know, I spent all of 2016 and most of 2017 being a sort of hermit, making my own technological breakthroughs and discoveries in the art of game programming. Most of these breakthroughs have accumulated into The Temple of Max.

Anyways, my first games that used a form of graphics beyond ascii had horrible flickering issues and was overall just choppy and primitive. I was bored today, and these issues have been bothering me for the past year. All it took was a few simple lines of code, and the results are astounding when compared to the original launch version. In my opinion, this new version is the definitive version of Lasers of Mars. I’ve also given this treatment to Quadrilateral Drive, in case anyone was wondering.

That’s about all I have to say. Thanks for reading, and enjoy the fixes!

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
