Unless you put it in an obvious place (like on the main menu) and you're willing to sacrifice another few hundred bytes, it's a good idea to have a readme file, even if it's a short one.

They are boring to write, though. It's part of the reason I still haven't submitted some old projects like AnyForm, over a year after I made it

[Hayleia]

And what about some way to access to levels, such as password or savegame or anything ?
Because always start from the start is quite annoying when we only are stuck at level 11.

edit: the following attachement has nothing to do with the rest of the post, just hosting it here

[Ashbad]

Well, you can always store player and level data into an Appvar

[DJ Omnimaga]

Yeah passwords would be nice or being able to restart where you left off.

[Progammer]

Yeah ... I know that's a probleme ... But I dont really know how to use appsvar . Don't worry I will do something about that in the next version

[DJ Omnimaga]

Ah ok. Well feel free to ask for help if you need any (maybe look at topics in the Axe help section)

[Hayleia]

No use for Appvars here, just save it into your program:

Code: Select All | Copy To Clipboard

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

... Data{1}→GDB1 .somewhere in your prog, better in the beginning ... Lbl SAV .for saving, L is the level you are at L→{GDB1} ...

The Data at GDB1 will be initialized at 1 when compiling but with writeback (is that it ?), it will change with the L→{GDB1}. You even can make several SaveGames doing Data{1,1,1,1,1}, then L→{GDB1}+P with P chosen at the beginning between 0 and 4.

If you want to learn to use appvars, I did begin to write a tutorial on TI-OS vars.
You can find it here. I hope it's of some use.

The problem with that is that unless the program is run from a shell with writeback enabled, the changes will be lost when the program quits.

There are other problems, for example when we change the version of the game, we also lose all progress. I only submitted that solution because it was easy, not because it was the best . We don't have any of those problems with appvars but it is (a bit) more difficult (but with FinaleTI's tuto, the programmer would surely manage).

[Progammer]

With the tutorial of finalTI , I added savegame by appvars . I also change some things . If somebody wants to help me , I need new maps because I'm out of imagination ! Enjoy v1.2

This is a wonderful game, very nice job!

[Hayleia]

Yeah !!!
I won't be bored in philosophy class !!! Erm, no, that's not what I meant.
You got a +1, and FinaleTI too.

Is it normal that after pushing the button (that breaks every breakable block), keys are inverted ?

[Progammer]

Yeah this is normal , it makes the game harder . But I will maybe remove it because I don't know if it's a so good idea .

(how can I give +1 ? )
