TI-Basic project : CalcLand
« on: April 26, 2012, 04:55:19 pm »
Hello everybody !

I'm working for a new project, due to the TI-Concours !
Okay, I'm posting a french game in an english categorie, but I thought it would be interesting for you to improve your french with it !  ;D

My project is an adventure game like pokémon and Zelda on Game Boy. But it will be pure Basic !
It's only beginning, but I've already 2 pictures for your eyes :



The team of the game is a surprise. ;D
Waiting your comments. ;)

Nota : I'm french so if you find any error, you can say it to me and I'll correct it.
Nota2 : when the contest will finish, I could translate the game in english if you're interested.

good luck! it already seems pretty nice :)


Spoiler For funny life mathematics:
1. ROMANCE MATHEMATICS
Smart man + smart woman = romance
Smart man + dumb woman = affair
Dumb man + smart woman = marriage
Dumb man + dumb woman = pregnancy
2. OFFICE ARITHMETIC
Smart boss + smart employee = profit
Smart boss + dumb employee = production
Dumb boss + smart employee = promotion
Dumb boss + dumb employee = overtime
3. SHOPPING MATH
A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need.
4. GENERAL EQUATIONS & STATISTICS
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
5. HAPPINESS
To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.
To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.
6. LONGEVITY
Married men live longer than single men do, but married men are a lot more willing to die.
7. PROPENSITY TO CHANGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, and she does.
8. DISCUSSION TECHNIQUE
A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

Girls = Time * Money (Girls are a combination of time and money)
Time = Money (Time is money)
Girls = Money squared (So, girls are money squared)
Money = sqrt(Evil) (Money is also the root of all evil)
Girls = sqrt(Evil) squared (So, girls are the root of all evil squared)
Girls = Evil (Thus, girls are evil)
*Girls=Evil credit goes to Compynerd255*

Looks very nice. I like the way the houses and perspective look like for ASCII. :)

I'm trying to correct his faults:

It's only beginning, but I've already (got?) 2 pictures for your eyes
(NOTA : "2 eye-candy pictures" should work too)

(NOTA: I'm French too, so my correction could be wrong :-°)

Awesome ! I really like the houses !!

Btw, by "The team of the game is a surprise." Do you mean "la team" in french or "le thème" ? This might be a mistake since "le thème" is called "the topic" or "the subject".

And: "It's only beginning, but I've already 2 pictures for your eyes :"
should be "The game is still a WIP but here are 2 pictures for your eyes ;) :"

I've no time to correct the other misspellings. Keep in mind that anglaisfacile.com allow you to improve this a bit.
"Commit to the Lord whatever you do and your plans will succeed." - Proverbs 16:3
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men. " - Colossians 3:23

I think he means the theme, judging from the context. Or if he means the storyline specifically, then story or plot can do too :)

Anyway I hope this is still progressing. This looked quite nice actually for ASCII standards :)

Sorry but it hasn't progressed yet, I had lots of work.
But I'm going to continue my project next week (maybe tomorrow) because I'm going to have more time. ;)
