Toot

Written by Starxxon on 2025-01-05 at 17:42

Digging around my old Macromedia Director projects archive, I stumbled on one of the earliest thing I made with Director 4.0 on a B&W Mac Classic.

It's a very boring pong game with some "cool" checkerboard distortion effect.

To achieve the effect, the assets were pre-rendered using Photoshop 2.5 (which did work on a B&W Mac!). The "Spherize" filter was used on the ball for each combination of checkerboard patterns and "Emboss" was used for the paddle.

@RetroHax Well there's no brick to break, only a paddle and ball which is more like a solo Pong game! ^_^
