Idea of crude implementation of solar sensor for Boktai games - argotha - 10-30-2016
We all know that solar sensor emulation in mgba is kinda workig/not working thing. In the daytime there is no in-game sun for recharching solar gun.You need increase brightnes of solar sensor to "adding sun power". I have an simple idea for crude daytime emulation in Boktai 1-3. mGBA have realtime clock set by PC/console/smartphone time sync. Maybe cheapest and crude (yeah, really crude) decision for playing normally in this games its simulating daytime. Example: 04-05AM is dawn - 1-2 blocks in sun power lifebar. 06-09AM is morning - 3-4 blocks, 10AM-02PM - 5-6 blocks? 03-05(06)PM is last 7-8 sun blocks. Afters 06PM with every hour sun blocks will decrease. On 08(09)PM starts night.
I think, with this type of solar sensor daytime simulation playing in Boktai series will be more interesting and challenging in some occasion.
