Bomber-Basic-Amstrad -Amstrad CPC-

 by Altanerus Dog

Altanerus: "Programar en BASIC es agradable porque te permite interactuar de cerca con la máquina. Con Bomber-Basic-Amstrad he querido seguir la pauta de aquellos primerizos juegos programados íntegramente en BASIC, como ya lo hice con Tetris-Basic-Amstrad, pero esta vez con otro título emblemático como lo fue Bomberman de 1983 (Hudson Soft). Se podía portar el juego al BASIC del Amstrad con sus numerosas limitaciones; vean ustedes mismos.

Bomber-Basic-Amstrad se puede denominar como el clon más sencillo que existe, con 6.3 Kb, y queda claro que no ostenta nada, solo es una demostración. Dispone de 9 niveles diferentes con final, ya que odio los juegos que no lo tienen. Es lento, ya que volvemos a confiar en la matriz bidimensional con numerosos bucles y, lo más importante, es 100% Basic, pero es totalmente jugable y muy adictivo. Solo debes cogerle la práctica".

Warmux (ZX Spectrum Next)

 by sherk128

Turn-based worm artillery for the ZX Spectrum Next. Two teams of three, eleven maps, terrain that really breaks, wind, and sixty seconds to land the shot before the turn runs out. Written from scratch in Z80N assembler, on a full-colour Layer 2 screen, with hardware sprites and three sound chips.

What it is

A port of Warmux (formerly Wormux) to the ZX Spectrum Next. You take turns, aim, charge the shot and try to put the other side in the water before they do it to you. Every explosion takes a real bite out of the landscape — the terrain is both the picture and the collision mask, so a crater genuinely changes where you can walk, where you can jump, and what is still covering your back.

Play against the computer at one of three difficulties, or two players at the same keyboard.

What is in it

• 11 maps converted from the original Warmux: Island, Desert, Bankiz, Country, Pillars, Oktopus, Frog, Moon-4M, Birds, Farm, Icebergs — each with its own 256-colour palette.
• Destructible terrain — a 512×256 world, two screens wide, scrolled by the hardware.
• 7 weapons: bazooka, grenade, dynamite, mine, cluster bomb, gun, and a sniper rifle with a laser sight. The bazooka and grenade charge while you hold the key; the gun and the rifle fire the moment you press it.
• Crates and medkits dropping onto the map as the match goes on.
• Wind, falling damage and drowning — the numbers come straight from the original game's own settings.
• A computer opponent at three levels (Rookie, Veteran, Master) that aims with the same physics and works the same keys a player does.
• Music and sound effects at the same time — TurboSound: the music plays on the first two AY chips and the effects have the third to themselves, so neither has to give way.

Encirclers Xiuh Edition -ZX Spectrum-

 

This is a game for ZX Spectrum by Coopdevil

The author: "Exactly the same game as Encirclers just with a different background in lovely #00FFFF cyan this time (rather the somewhat stark black on acres of pure white of the original) and a different font.

Nobody asked for this but I did it anyway.

The mask is that of Xiuhtecuhtli and Xiuh- is also a Nahuatl prefix meaning turquoise.

I have absolutely no idea how that is pronounced".

There is no list of predefined actions you must follow. You communicate with the game by typing commands, experimenting with different ways of interacting with the world.

MAZINGER Z (SEGA Mega Drive/Genesis)

 by NK/Soft

Mazinger Z

What if Mazinger Z had been released for the Cassette Vision in 1981?

About

The Cassette Vision was an early cartridge-based home video game console released by Epoch in Japan in 1981.

It became one of Japan's popular home video game systems in the years before the arrival of Nintendo's Family Computer (NES).

On a sudden whim, I decided to create Mazinger Z based on a simple idea:

"What if a Mazinger Z game had been released for the Cassette Vision back then?"

The game is designed to capture the simple gameplay and limited visual style of early home video games.

I hope you enjoy this little tribute to the classic era of Japanese gaming.

Paintball is a game for ZX Spectrum NEXT!

This is a fast-paced top-down arcade game. Choose one of five arenas, grab the flag in the middle of the field and carry it back to your cyan base. Two computer-controlled opponents are trying to take the same flag to their magenta base.

• Your magazine holds six paintballs and reloads automatically when empty.
• You have three paint grenades per match. Each grenade tags players in a larger area.

Search for the remains of Count Dracula in order to rid the land of his curse. Each collected part has unique abilities that you can use to help your quest. More items and weapons were added as well to assist fighting the creatures of the night.
