It plays very well! And once the graphics are all moving with the special effects they look fantastic

Great! I love those bullet patterns! I swore a few times when I saw what was coming towards me! This is not only one of the best DB games, but it is one of the best free games on the Net!

Thanks again. Yeah when everything gets moving it looks better. I know I can squeeze quite a lot more out of DBPro next time though......my code wasn't the best and could have been optimized quite a lot.

Pincho:
Cheers mate. Nice to know it's still keeping someone entertained

Thanks guys and yes you're both right, I should have sold it.......If you could both stick £10 in the post

Yeah more will follow and unless I get begging letters from some huge publisher (yeah right) they'll be free......all I've got to do is find the time.

LOL. Thanks although the error definately isn't on that line......it's blank

Tracking errors I can't recreate isn't fun. Add to that the fact error reporting is poor and it's all a bit of trial and error.

I'll see what I can do but any other info about what it's doing at the time would be great.

Just wanted to say that this game is truly an inspiration. It's refreshing to see DB projects that are so polished and professional that the actual gameplay is the focus and not the technical aspects.

I love it.

Thanks again guys........

@Aura.
lol. I have no idea what you mean........it doesn't sound pleasant.......but I think it's a good thing.

@Peter_H
OK. You win. Officially the undisputed DUO champion.

@blue.
Yeah, we might not be able to compete with the pros on some fronts but gameplay is one area that, with a bit of effort, we can more than match them.

......now all go work on your compo entries. We wanna play some new games.

Heh. Thanks for that Ebon......I'll be sure to fix that in the next version.

I'm about to give DUO a very quick makeover. Code will pretty much stay the same but the media will be getting a bit of a tidy up. Graphics will be redone although maintaing the current *ahem* style and Kenmo has already done some neat new sound FX that should fit perfectly.

@Mentor
Cheers. I just wish I'd thought of adding the autofire option during testing to save my aged fingers....agh.

And thanks to everyone else for their comments as well.

Look forward to that

I’m totally addicted to this game, and I know I’ll still be playing in years to come. Great stuff
