Bacillus Preview 2 - Interesting In development platform game for C64 hits version 2!


Once again the C64 is going to be mentioned as Thorsten Jordan has made available the next preview update of his work in progress game ' Bacillus ', which is now at version 2. This game which we have spoken about before, although we couldn't find much about the game other than a few trainer releases, seems to be related in some way to a bacteria and a member of the phylum Firmicutes ( Yes I did look that up ).


Just as Hayesmaker pointed out before, the game developed by Thorsten Jordan so far looks pretty good. The main smiley faced sprite jumps really high like the ball in Iball 2, but instead of static screens the levels scroll left and right like Mayhem in Monsterland. There are also other bits to the game such as picking up specific things that gives you food, and touching certain enemies causes you to die instantly. Other than that, it's a rather nice early work in progress game, it's just a shame I have no idea what I'm doing and there's no sound effects or in game music.

Changelog :

- Producer Intro
- 3 Levels to play through
- New world  graphics for Level 3
