About Commodore 64 Totoro64
A fun way to introduce coding to kids is game development. Vintage machines are ideal to introduce many low level concepts without the complexity or the abstraction of modern, more powerful systems. The game is a classic vertical catch game featuring characters from Hayao Miyazaki’s movie “My neighbor Totoro”. The goal is to catch the required number of acorns before the time expires. Poisonous berries, bonus apples and Totoro’s spin top add some variations to the basic game. The game is written in C and assembly and fits on a standard C64 16KB cartridge.
Totoro64 Gameplay
Left moves the character left, right moves right and fire makes the character jump.
Player 1 uses joystick in port 2 or ‘V’, ‘N’ and left shift. Player 2 uses joystick in port 1.
There are currently 3 game modes:
- 1P Standard: Player 1 controls chu-Totoro. chibi-Totoro follows automatically and help catch the acorns.
- 1P Solo: Player 1 controls chu-Totoro. No chibi-Totoro.
- 2P Co-Op: Player 1 controls chu-Totoro. Player 2 controls chibi-Totoro. Both contribute to catch the required number of acorns.
A 2 Player versus mode is planned but currently not implemented.
There are a few subtle differences between chu-Totoro and chibi-Totoro. The collision mask of chibi-Totoro is smaller making it more difficult to catch acorns. To compensate for this, its acceleration is higher making it easier to control.
Scoring is based on catching acorns (catching while jumping adds a bonus) and a end of stage bonus based on the remaining time. Bonus apples do not contribute to the score but add 10 seconds to the time.
There is no scoring difference between small and big acorns.
The game has 15 stages of increasing difficulty. Every 3 stages something new is introduced. Wind at stage 4, spin top at stage 7, slow poison berries at stage 10 and confusion poison berries at stage 13.
