Next 1K hires : Airpipes
Next 1K hires : Airpipes
Airpipes
This game is based on a ONELINER for the ZX Spectrum which is based on the game CHINESE JUGGLER.
Aim of the game:
in each pipe a ball will bounce, each time less high.
You must keep all balls bouncing by blowing air into the pipe when the valves at the bottom open.
They open when the ball is on the bottom.
When your ventilator (yes, it will rotate in the game) is under the pipe at that moment the ball
will be blown to the top. You get more points when you let the ball make more bounces.

Re: Next 1K hires : Airpipes
Thanks for ?????
Do you wanted some kind of game like this???
BTW, I altered the view already.
The ventilator at the bottom will now only show the ventilator and rest is white.
This saves just 160 bytes and I can make the ventilator larger if I want to.
Re: Next 1K hires : Airpipes
For developing new softwarez of course. Good development should be appreciated.

Re: Next 1K hires : Airpipes
The altered display even saves 256 bytes due to deleting a lot of setting, not only screenmemory.
Now 490 bytes free and already extra data defined.

See pipe5. When ball is at the bottom, the valve opens.
When the ventilator would be here, the ball would blow all the way up again.

Re: Next 1K hires : Airpipes
First version here.
Still more than enough room so I could add other controls, ZXPAND
Let me know....
As for details:
see that only when the ball is at the bottom the valves open to let wind blow in.
Also ventilator keeps rotating even after gameover.
Further more:
The screen has 33 columns.
Start : A-G
Controls
9 =left
0 = right

I like this version a lot more.
Real pipes and score is higher if you catch the ball sooner.
This tricks you to take only high points and you forget the small points until... dead.
