1K hires : Fruit Machine Simulator

[dr beep]

Thanks to Shaun Bebbington
I am working now on a fruit machine simulator in 1K hires.

So far: the 10 graphics for the rolls ready and a bit larger screen to show them all correctly.
Next thing: real rolling of the rolls.

The 10 UDG are 13x2 in size and fit 256 bytes (4 bytes compressed)

Now rolling with stop per roll ready.

Next to do: add holdbutton and hold the rolls.

That is awesome and makes me very jealous of your programming abilities!

First "Gameplay".

Just let them roll.... no winning or HOLD yet...

Just press Newline for next go.

I cannot believe this is 1k.

A trick surely!

All 1K hires use some kind of trick in the display.

This is rather simple.
Notice the gap between the rolls.
The next UDG is fetched in that time and then showed 2 bytes. After showing entire line the UDGS-display is increased to the next line and shown.

For rolling effect the UDG-bank is skipped 1 position each time.
Since the UDG's fit 256 bytes they go around to 0 by increasing from 255 to 0, making it a roll.

genius pure genius well done sir.
