This is amazing for sure.. How many hours/days/weeks have you been working on that? It is totally worth all the good critics :)

It definitively needs to be released on ticalc.org as well so they might feature it :)

Thanks Art! :) It is crazy. Plan your movements well so you don't get jammed up.

Thanks Nick! :) I've been working on this for a total of about 6 months now. I started it in back in Oct 2010. However, I took some time off for personal reasons. Been working steadily once again since Nov 2012.

I plan on releasing on Ticalc in a few months. I will also be posting Pyramid Solitaire to Ticalc as well. :)

Quick update:

Took a break from creating levels to work on other aspects of the game.

- removed the levels from the main program
- created an external "level pack" file
- compressed the external level pack
- modified main program to open, decompress, and read the level pack
- added capability to save high scores to a file in archive memory
- modified main program to open & read high scores file

To do in this area:
- add a screen to select one of many level packs to play

It's been a while but here's another screenie:



This level is called Robots 1. It was originally part of the Jumpman level set. When Jumpman picks up a scriptable bomb, the script instructs the Robots to move to their next position defined by a list of waypoint vectors.

You will also see a rudimentary level pack selection screen. This list is populated during game initialization. Any file on the calc with a file extension "jml" along with a certain magic number embedded within the file is considered to be a level pack.

High score saving is also working. In the screenshot you may notice that a file called jms.jms is created and archived. This file is the high score file. This file is opened (or created and opened if it does not exist) at game initialization. The file is updated and archived when the user exits the game.

Thanks Sorunome! TI-89 is a great calculator even to this day. If you are adventurous, you could always attempt to make your own link cable. I think Ticalc has some schematics.

Thanks TheNlightenedOne! As I told Sorunome, the TI-89 is a great calculator you will love it!

Wow, glad to see you working on this Ranman! These screenies look better than ever. I might have to go out and get some fresh AAAs.

How about some Robots 2:



This level was originally included in Jumpman. It features robots enemies that make "smart" random movements rather than the use of waypoints.

Thanks so much Madskillz!! I hope you enjoy it. :)

Thanks for your support Sorunome!

I managed to complete a few more levels:



All of these levels were originally included in the Jumpman level set. In Robots III, the enemies make even smarter movements. In Runaway, the bombs get up and move. And Jungle is just plain ol' hard!

I now have 23 levels completed.
