Title: [2013 Contest][BASIC][Pac-Man!]
Post by: TIfanx1999 on October 05, 2013, 08:17:25 am

So, I'm working on a BASIC Pac-Man clone for giggles. So far, I just have some preliminary speed tests done. Pac-man and four ghosts generate pretty quickly. That's it though, no movement or collision detection yet. Hopefully I'll get a screenie up by the end of the day to show the benchmarks.

It would be nice to see how far BASIC limits can be pushed for a Pacman clone. I once tried to make one years ago using Pt-On/Off and it ran around 1.5 FPS, and that was on OS 1.12, which is a little faster than newer OSes.
