Gameboy Development Forum

Hi, this is a fast (I think) Parallax fake for the Game Boy Color, all info is in readme.
Is is compiled to use with gbdk, but the C part of the code can be easily converted to asm (if you know how to).

It uses a little 16x16 pixel square, (I was not able to use a 64x64 one like toki tori).
This program uses the SCX and SCY registers to copy a specific frame of an animation to the parallax tiles, so this does not depend on anything else, just the scx and scy, and can be used with other functions.



In the sample demo, it works perfect, but using it with other functions may cause the dma function to write data outside vblank. I'm trying to use it in my puzzle game, but it usually produces garbage on screen because of this.

Hope it is usefull for someone.
