New C64 game - Bah, Humbug
A new Christmas game, specially released
for you today called "Bah, Humbug". Mr. Frosty springs into action in
this wacky festive creation, written by me. It took me a few days to
create, but finally it is here. I have also added this game to the
online games room page as well. :o) Enjoy!
For more about this game, visit our download games section and enjoy it for five minutes or so :)
Bah, Humbug
Last of all. A Merry Christmas to you all, and a proposterous new year too. 2009 was a crap year, but let's hope 2010 will be better. :)

Ultimate Stunt Boat Challenge - Yet
another diary
Update
More work has been done for USBC, but the bad news is that there won't be a Christmas release of what I had planned. There's so much work to be done, plus my work life is also taking over my spare time running up to this time of year. Anyway the diary has been updated for you once again.

Little surprise in store for Christmas
I'm not going to tell you what it is, you will just have to wait and see on 25th December 2009. Last year you had Sub Hunter, this year it could also be something fun and exciting (If I can get it done by then) :o)

C64 News - Possible delays with activities
Unfortunately I have some bad news at this moment in time. Due to my new job I have. I will be expected to work a lot running up to Christmas. This unfortunately means that my C64 activities will be shortened even more, more overtime for me :o) Therefore it could take a long time for me to prepare updates, etc for this web site. It also affects the Up in the Air project. The game will not be ignored, I will try and find some time to work on it, but at the moment, it looks as if there will be long delays with the activities. Also if you have submitted anything for the TND web site, do expect delays just in case I am unavailable.
Up in the Air - Mini update
Wayne has been busy again and has yet another outstanding diary entry.

Some new C64 tunes released
I have yet another small batch of C64 tunes for you to download and enjoy today. One is already uploaded on to the CSDB, but this one was done for a purpose. The tunes released today are as follows:
Great Giana Sisters - The Castle Stage. A DMC remix of the in-game tune from Great Giana Sisters originally composed by Chris Huelsbeck. The music was done to pay respect to Armin Gessert, creator of The Great Giana sisters for the C64.
Frontpage 18 Remix - My DMC version of the Frontpage issue 18 tune, originally composed by Guy Shavitt/Sid Chip Scratchers.
Cooksey 09 - A DMC V5.0 tune composed in the style of C64 legend, Mark Cooksey. I tried to make the instruments sound as authentic as possible. :o)
Asteroid Belt - A DMC V5.0 tune, with a touch of my usual style.
and finally
Sauasages - A DMC V5.0 tune with my usual style.

A new tune for you
If you love C64 remixes, then I
have another new tune for you. Not My Day. A remix of a TND intro tune
I did for the C64 in the late 2008. This tune is recent and features on
my PC TND intro, which was linked to my PC Jeffy remake. Hope you will
enjoy this wonderful melodic dance/trance piece.Richards' Real Music
A diary update from
Wayne
My good buddy, Wayne has yet more text type banter to share with you on the Up in the Air Diary and a bit of a reaction to what I typed about the OOH MY HEAD HURTS entry. Hahahaha. I might have to do a third page of the diary next month :o)
Expect another diary entry from me this coming week - although I am itching to do another Blitz Basic game next month :o) Hehehehehe!

Up in the Air diary updated!
Are you getting fed up with waiting for an update? Well, okay no worries another Up in the Air update for you to enjoy or envy. Despite what I have said, there could be a possibility that I will just work on the whole game and not release a playable preview of the project. A small video of the project is a possibility (Which will be added on to the UITA diary as well). Anyway, enjoy today's taster of a diary entry and do look forward to another update later on this week.

Heavy Metal Deluxe - Gold Edition
released
A gold edition of Heavy Metal Deluxe has been released. It is not a new game though, just a nicer charset and different music (from the old unreleased BETA version of the game) Special thanks to André Bolfing for the nice cover artwork for the tape inlay. This version is tape only, but there's also a disk included that will help you master the game to tape. I specially did this because of the artwork that was sent to me. I was determined to do a tape inlay with additional design. Hope you all like it. The front and side flap was redesigned by André himself. Nice work.

UITA Preview to follow soon.
A playable (WIP) preview of Up in The Air is to follow in about a week's time (or maybe 2), as there's still some work to be done (fixing random positions for enemies - so that they don't appear on the same line, updating position tables). While we're still here. I have updated the UITA diary with some more progress reports from over the weekend and also today.

Some quick updates today
We have some quick (or updates that took a while) for you today. Please take a look at the headlines below:
New look Assemble It - Online
Assemble IT is back with a new look. Well, it still looks basic, but the purpose of it was to make navigation much easier. All the categories from the previous Assemble IT has been split into different sections. Other new things is that we also cater for the cross-assembly users as well, although you will have to extract the PRG files from a D64 to use them for your programs in the source code. You can also download a .D64 which contains very useful public domain utilities that can help you produce graphics, music, and code, although this disk was released by Commodore Free in 2007. Finally, there's a load of links to various cross-platform utilities to help you get producing. As time moves by, I will be updating the pages with newer sources when I get round to it. For now, enjoy the tutorial. :o)
New look Assemble IT!
Temple Warriors updated
Joonas Lindberg has updated his Temple Warriors game, by fixing some animation issues with the player's barbarian. We have replaced the older version of the game on the contributors page.
Not much has been done on the game programming front, but there's some interesting stuff added to the diary. Both from Wayne and also from yours truly.

into the game to give it some atmosphere. Hope you enjoy the game.

The Push - released
Anthony Burns
has yet again produced another new piece of Sideways SEUCK effort. This
time it is a game called The Push, a World War 1 arcade game,
based on Capcom's classic game called MERCS. This is probably one of
the best SEUCK combat games I have ever seen or played, since
G.R.U.N.T.S. Some very clever boss stages have been implemented in this
game, like level 2's boss and also level 3's boss as well. The game
also features music composed by me in the front end. The song of which
is called "I Died at War!". The game is for 1 or 2 players too

to enjoy playing online, if downloading is a bit too much for you :o)

New C64 game - Nyaaaah! 11 - Special
Edition
If you remember
in 2008, I created Nyaaaah! 11. Well, now I have created a
special edition of the Nyaaaah! 11 game. The game is slightly extended
and it also uses the SEUCK REDUX
engine, which allows you to play the game without the dreaded SEUCK
slowdown syndrome. Have fun with this improved version of last year;s

Anthony Burns has launched a new
game, exclusive to The New Dimension called Legion of the Damned 2. This game is
the sequel to the Golden Axe - inspired sideways SEUCK romp. But this
time, this game is inspired by Double Dragon, one way or another. The
music in the front end will sound MON(ish) to you, but this tune was
actually composed by me. Hahahaha! :) We do hope you will enjoy this
sequel.

New C64 game - Trash Course - Coming
July 2009!
We have been working on a new game project in co-op with Inferior Software, called Trash Course. This is a sideways scrolling shoot 'em up and collect 'em up which was created using the Sideways Scrolling SEUCK. Sadly this game will not be released until July 2009, due to the fact that we have given it an exclusive first release of the game to Digital Talk disk mag. After the the launch of Digital Talk issue 87, the game will be launched for you to download from this web site.
What have we been up to then?
You may have noticed that the game projects Up in the Air and Ultimate Stunt Boat Challenge were delayed for a while. The main cause for this was because I was working hard on some other C64 projects with other people. Now that those projects are now finished, it is now time for me to get back to Up in the Air, and also the Ultimate Stunt Boat Challenge projects.

Legion
of the Damned updated
The sideways SEUCK game Anthony Burns, which also features additional spells, added by Martin Piper, using the SEUCK redux source, has yet again been updated by Martin. This time with a pixel perfect sprite/sprite collision detection. The preview versions of the game had a different sprite/sprite collision detection.
The second update is that this game now has in game music and also a re-designed front end that still uses the usual SEUCK colour bars, but looks much better compared to the one I did yonks ago. Front end now uses bones and swords for the LOTD logo.

for a week or so :)
From 22nd April

then I will be answer as much of my backlog Wednesday next week or
later.

Our web site will be moving to a different server in the next month or so, therefore not much will be updated. If the site does move to another domain, the new address will be added to my profile on various popular C64 sites.

Up
in the Air upated
Although we are at the beginning of this game project, I have finally started the game diary with some new screen shots that shows the game's graphics that were specially made for this game.

Sub Hunter link fixed
It seems that there was a problem with the menu link to the Sub Hunter page and the Sub Hunter page jumped straight on to the menu frame. I have now fixed this link.
Moving soon
The TND web site will be moving to a new server soon, in less than a month or so. To find our new web site address, please keep an eye on www.c64.sk as news will be revealed when we have moved to a newer server. As the current server which we were using will be sold to another person/company. Therefore www.redesign.sk/tnd64 will no longer exist after our web site moves. The address might be shorter and probably easier to remember as well. So don't panic!

We
are moving soon
The New Dimension web site will be
moving soon to a newer location. This is because the current server is
being sold. I should hopefully find a new how for The New Dimension
some time soon before the server goes down.
Thanks for your attention.!
All our pages have been backed up, so we should have no problem going online elsewhere!

IMAGINATOR
V3 RELEASED
Imaginator
is a game I wrote in 2008 has been updated today with some new
enemies. The SEUCK REDUX
source not working well with the spikes part of the game. I added some
funny new cute enemies. The background animations for the waterfall are
still implemented in the enhanced game. Also I have done a tape master
of the game as well for any tape loader fans out there. The game now
has a title screen with scroll text and music. In game sound effects,
and even a work disk which you could play around with in Sideways SEUCK
if you wanted to.

UP IN THE AIR NEWS
Some news regarding Up in the Air. You may have noticed that I have not been doing anything to this game at the moment. Well, this is mainly because I wanted to take a little break from game programming for a little while. Therefore this game project will commence in February. Anyway I may as well reveal the plan about this production.
First of all, this game will not take as long as Sub Hunter originally took to make. Secondly the graphics will be completely different. I don't know if anybody will want to do any graphics for this game, so it might be up to me to do this job. Lastly there are one or two people who are interested to do music for this production. Which possibly might save me the job again.
2009 MINI GAME COMPO STARTS FEBRUARY
The traditional multi-0-bit-format games programming competition starts February this year. The MiniGame compo 2009, is back and the rules remain the same as they were in the previous years. All people need to do is program a game for their chosen format of machine to fit 1K, 2K or 4K in size. Something not to be missed.

LEGION OF THE DAMNED UPDATED
In 2008, we released Legion of the Damned by Anthony Burns. A very nice sideways SEUCK game. But now with thanks to Martin Piper and myself. This game now has its own power ups. So the brave Amazon and Barbarian have spells. For more information (and the update), download the game from our web site.

C64 PRODUCTIONS NEWS ROUND UP
So then what is happening so
far? Well, at the moment we have a nice game idea called Up In The Air in the pipeline. We
have not started on the project yet, but we will do soon. However, at
the moment, I am working on a special edition of the 2007 game, Bomb Chase. This game required loads
of major tweaks, enhancements and bug fixing to make it much better and
fun. At the moment, I think the game is finished but it is currently
being beta tested. Hope you will look forward to this game when it gets
released.

CRAPPY NEW YEAR! :oP
Not really a good start to the new year, but we just can't resist to have a good laugh to add yet some more pretty memorable rubbish from the past, which fortunately to us, had never saw the light of day. So ladies and gentlemen I bring you two crap old games that I wrote in my student years 10 years ago and boy, those games sure are that bad! Either you will laugh or cry when you see those. The two games are Hide and Seek and also The Dating Game. Both piles of crap, which were written in BASIC. Enjoy or scream!
Take me to the past time crap page
