I don't know how to code games but I think it would be cool to make this: http://stuff.ubersite.com/1081930531667215502/1/plane.exe


..This game is very addictive.

It says forbidden, and when I go to stuff.ubersite.com it is blank except the words stuff. Are you specially logged in or something?

Definitely! It is similar to a game I used to play along time ago that I actually do consider making every now and then. Maybe I will think about it...

Here is the game I played similar to plane: Link

Wow. I survived 20 seconds in Plane.
That would be a good project. Too bad I don't know ASM.

Fun avatar.

If I knew how to track stuff in Asm better, this would have been my next project.

Yeah that is my problem, definitely not a fun basic game, and tracking all those asteroids would be a nightmare.

Actually....no, not really. It would just be really freaking slow.

How long would it take to code for someone who knows ASM?

I don't think it would be that slow. It would be very flickery, though, because you'd store the asteroids using two lists and a plot, and then you'd have to clear the screen every frame.

It shouldn't be that hard to do in assembly - you have a fixed number of asteroids with fixed velocities, so you have four arrays for x-position, y-position, x-velocity, and y-velocity; update them in a loop and you're set.

I have an idea to accomplish this in a fairly fast way in basic... it'd be ugly though.

Obviously, lists on a smaller section of the screen outputting white pixles to a completely black pixel background then recalling pic0 which has this background (along with the rest of the display). It would be ugly and hard to see but it would work.

I think it would look better with a white background on the calculator.

Yeah but then you'd need to either erase each pixle one at a time or ClrDraw which is slow and ugly.

I think the fastest way to do it would be plot sprites, seeing as this is exactly the situation which they're ideal for and which would mean much less work for the programmer... but that's just me.
