I have a bit of feedback on the intro. I did enjoy it, lovely graphics even though I probably wouldn’t watch it more than once or twice.
However, from a legibility point of view, it would be nice if you could put a darker colour behind the text as it can be tricky to read depending on the colour of the background.
You’re right, shall we ban someone? 
I’m going to release the code onto github publically tonight or tomorrow. Of what I have done so far. Hopefully it will be of use to someone. Then I’ll be taking a break. Code will be under GPL.
I need it. I’m going to play Skyrim properly (for the first time) for the next month or so and then get back to development. The weirdly argumentative tone on the forum doesn’t help these days.
That said, excellent ideas up thread about the jumping, and the sprites, and the way the intro is structured, and I, or someone else, will definitely be fixing them. Thank you to everyone who time to play my wee tech demo, as it currently is.
And I really do appreciate anyone who has taken the time to give it a go. In the days of people pumping out endless slop, proper feedback and criticism is valued greatly.
Hopefully future me will be able to make Hero a damn fine game.
If you want to design levels btw, get in touch. They are all done in tiled, and converted to compressed binary via a python script and cpcteleranext compression.
Ideally we would have ten or so levels, and our @TITAN has already got a second set of tiles, for underworld/hades up there on his website. The engine can support a different tileset and a different music track per level.
Haha, Rexbeng is taking a bit of a ribbing in the comments. In fairness, I think his work speaks for itself and he clearly does set a very high standard for himself. That’s not big-headed I don’t think, it’s the truth.
Ok, I can accept that this game is a work of fantasy that is more inspired by video games than by history. Although I guess it would be cool to see a game using amphorae instead of barrels sometime?
But you have to admit he has a point about the helmets. Four different helmets, it’s not ideal.
Its Helmets all the way down, apparently.
