Hope Dr Beep won't mind if a briefly hi-jacking this thread... ;)

...but if a game isn't suitable for 1K high-res, it might well be suitable as a 16K low-res game, and I'm always on the look-out for new ideas - especially as I've just finished Ant Attack '81 (viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1224)

So if there's something you'd like to see converted, or have ideas for a new game, then maybe add them to this thread - viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1116 - and I'll have a look how feasible it is?

Hmm how about a mr. Game and watch type game. It all stays in one screen and is fun no matter what the game is

So far I have the following games in my mind

- Down (same game as from Revival Studios, based on Blocky but with holes not platforms)
- Egg Jump (based on my oneliner)
- Squash (based on Pong and Outlaw)
- Pacman (based on my oneliner)
- Beach Volleyball (Videopac as base)
- Minefield
- Blockkiller (based on my oneliner)
- Cavetrip (based on my oneliner)
- Racegame (based on hires game in 2013)
- Golf (based on my 1K game for the ZX Spectrum)
- Run game (a bit like Subway surfer)
- Moon Buggy
- Space trip (based on the BASIC lowres version)
- Roller Ball ( A gyroscopic ball must be moved inside a pocket ASAP)
Ane evaluation after all this time:

Down, started, never finished
Egg Jumo = Game 40: Humpty Dumpty Egg drop
Sqaush, never made it
Pacman, not in hires, but soon as K-Man in lowres
Beach Volleyball, never made it
Minefield, in 1K lowres
Blockkiller= Game 68: Monkeyboard
Cavetrip, never made it
Racegame = Game 22: Marble Racer
Golf = Game 50, Minigolf
Run Game, never coded
Moon Buggy, never coded
Space trip= Game 25 : Asteroidbelt
Roller Ball: That is also used in Marble Racer
