Class Notes - April 12

Posted on April 12th, 2007 in Notes by spazeboy

We’re playing Ring King for the NES and I feel compelled to mention that the game has some questionable content:

Compared to a game like Pong, Ring King is more sophisticated graphics-wise, but is still primitive. The size of the characters in proportion to eachother doesn’t change when the fighters move around in the ring.

  • Movement
  • Iconic Representation

Gun.Smoke for the NES. The game moves you forward, whether you want to or not. Compared to the “confines” of the ring in Ring King or the “table” in Pong, Gun.Smoke has a much bigger world to explore. It’s akin to first person shooters, but without the perspective or the ability to wander wherever you want.
