Back in 1985, this arcade game looked just impossibly cool for an 8-year-old kid, whose only computer to play games with, was Sharp MZ-700.

I was also born in ‘78. There’s was nothing compared to walking into an arcade back then. The cacophony of all the sound effects coming from each game is like being an adult walking into a casino.

@ryansupak3639

LOL, I'm actually here because I'm reverse-engineering the speech chip this machine, and the Star Wars and Gauntlet machines, used. It's "Quasi-Sampling" in that the original sound sample is encoded in LPC-10 protocol, which is somewhere between a factor of 10x and 100x smaller than an actual sound sample of the same material. (The small size of LPC10-compressed "samples" was why this was a preferred method in the 80's, then got replaced by lo-fi samples by the mid-90s. Cell phone voice compression, for example, still uses a descendant of the LPC scheme. Ever notice the "reverby" sound on a cell phone voice when the line is cutting out? That's an artifact of the way this compression method "guesses" when there are gaps in data.) The "voice" is then recreated by a chain of (10x) sound filters in series, using the LPC stream as an "exciter". That's why I started researching this in the first place -- I couldn't figure out how the sounds were so much like "samples", but without being samples.

@ryansupak3639

3 жыл бұрын

@@StevenJamesBurks It's a process that sits basically in-between sampling and synthesis. A typical LPC-10 "player" had a bank of exciters and a sibilance generator that were set at frequency points that are used by the human voice. An LPC-10 "file" had a set of instructions to control each of those exciters. (A WAV sample is very similar, except that there are exciters for every single frequency, whereas the LPC-10 file only had ten or so for a few select bands -- BUT even that LPC-10 file was encoded directly from an original sound recording of, say, Mola Ram or Darth Vader. ) In effect, you got a system which provided the character of a vocal sample, at a fraction of the filesize of a true sound sample. This probably only ever made financial sense for the brief time that consumer-grade microprocessors were a thing, but storage was still prohibitively expensive.

This game had amazing music. Atari System 1 games' music never fail to amaze me with its brilliant use of the YM2151 chip, even during the soundchip's literal introduction (Marble Madness). It's like Atari got their hands on the soundchip by Yamaha during production.

For even more extra points (10,000, to be exact), you can whip her as soon as the counter gets down to zero (or you run out of weapons, whichever comes first), and then you get still more points for whatever weapons you have left and lives. I seem to recall that one time, I got two million points (getting one million is actually pretty easy). Indeed, the arcade game could be frustrating!
