Title: [Axe] Snowman Factory
Post by: Hayleia on December 20, 2012, 11:52:01 am
Here is my entry to the Espace TI contest which ends today. The rule was to make a Christmas oriented game, hence the snowmans :P
I tell it myself, this game is crap. This is why I didn't even have enough will to finish it.
If you want to finish it, take the source and go for it.

How to play:
Well, there is no way to win or to lose, but the aim is in fact to build the snowmans that are ordered, by using the arrow keys and 2nd to accept.
Clear quits.

Except for Play and Quit, nothing works in the menu.

Enjoy :)

edit I forgot to say that you should compile it with Axe 1.1.2, or if you compile it with another version, remove all the "+11" in the drawing commands.

Hayleia, i think you are being too hard on yourself. This is easily one of the most beautiful looking games I've seen on the z80 series. You really did a fantastic job on the graphics! :D

No, seriously, this is amazing!  It reminds me of the cake game in Purble Place, which was a fun game actually

I love the "scrolling sprite" trick actually coming into use for graphics, I could never find a purpose for it in a game (other than a slot machine, obviously). Despite being unfinished, this is already an outstanding mini/arcade game.

I agree that graphics are beautiful but other than this, there is nothing to see in my game. Not worth the 6700 bytes (with more than 4000 bytes of data :P)

Yeah, Purble Place is where I got my "inspiration" from :P

Note that there is also some kind of scrolling in the menu ;)

Thanks all for the kind words :)

Only 4, as Axe allows it to.

Well at least, your games have an aim, in my game, there is no way to lose or to win, you are building snowmans for nothing :P

Thanks everyone for the support :)
(and as I said, if anyone wants the finish it, the source code is available ;))
