Title: Small arcade games
Post by: Eeems on August 22, 2009, 02:17:34 pm
ok, these are a few arcade style games I made during my trip. one requires xlib ('stroids), and the other doesn't (Slide).


controls for 'stroid: arrows move, second fire, graph quit
controls for slide: arrows move, graph quit

Nice, is Stroid the same as that game DarkAuron from MaxCoderz was working on for the PC a few years ago? I'll try soon, tho.

Nice you still did some calc stuff while away tho, I was getting a bit worried we might have lost you like most people (something usual) over summertime since when you returned you were still not very active x.x

I don't know what game DarkAuron was working on, but 'stroids is an astroid like game that runs at an ok speed on 6mhz, and I have yet to test it on a 15mhz

just tested it and it runs really fast on a 15mhz with 5 objects on the screen, I have yet to test with more...
well you kind of have lost me...but not completely, I want to finish the blue platform first...you see I met a girl at camp for one thing, and I realized that I was in the online communities to try to fill my need for being with people, and that if I wanted to actually fill that need, I would have to actually hang out with people...
I'm still going to be here, and I will still be active, though not as much as before, and I will still try my best to keep programming, but now I'm going to try to fill my life with other things as well...so fear not, I'm not leaving yet :P and I don't plan on it for a long while, after all, I am staff...

Aaah ok. You might want to be careful about Stroids, tho, because now I just remember from #TCPA logs that DarkAuron (known as Auron there) is planning to sell his game to make money, so I don't know if copyrights might become an issue for the game name

Also as I said just now on MSN: you can upload stuff in program archives when you finish stuff. Warn me when you did, tho, so I update the screenshot links (since only me can upload them directly on server). Also you must use the same format as the rest of the calc games archives

ah ok, well I didn't really think about that, since these are kind of unfinished games, and I haven't made any screenshots/readmes for them yet...

yeah, I'm going to focus on TBP first, and then I may get back to these, but anybody who wants to can play around with the code
