I wanna start with my 1st game edit using openbor and wanna know can openbor do vertical scrollers??? can u edit them?? reason I ask because most games are side scrolling beat em ups. I wanna do something different and I think ikari warriors was a great game of its time that deserves an upgrade and was around the time of when double dragon came out and ghosts n goblins. I think there are alot of great arcade games that can get awesome upgrades instead of trying to make new games I think it would be great to try and redesign and give ppl awesome transformations of what our generation of gamers grew up playing and enjoying. just saying. I've been inspired by magggas's double dragon and would love to make awesome games from the 80s even more fun to play.
want to make ikari warriors remake using openbor advice??

yes you can do vertical ones, even can do autoscrolling if needed but youd have to figure out spawn grouping system yourself as far as i remember , not that hard, just have spawner entity that locks and unlocks the screen or something.
I played it on c64 but i se arcade is not that complex , i dont think you even need spawn grouping, regular spawner would do fine.

I can imagine could tricks to create vertical scrollers buuuut on second thought since player can shoot in 8 directions, why not just use default horizontal scroller? just code in 8 direction shooting and use default scroll system, that should be easy. The result might be similar to Shock Troopers.
