Block Buster Revisited
Block Buster Revisited
I originally converted the Spectrum version published in ZX Computing to run on a ZX81 with static RAM in the 8K region. It was written using SHREB v2.
I mainly wanted to see if I could produce a playable version for a standard 16K ZX81, which mainly meant replacing the original UDG characters with standard ZX81 characters. While I was at it I also created a UDG version which is almost identical to the SHREB version. Well, it should be, I just recycled the UDG data from it. Of course, this version requires a UDG capable ZX81 or emulator with 8-16K RAM.
The programs are a tad slow but since they require more strategic thinking than fast reflexes they're not too bad.
