NEW and FREE ZX81 PROGRAMS
After reflection I'm willing to yield some ground on this, but "bullpoo" is hardly justfied. And you're an butt. Of course. Who hasn't pulled...
Bonjour,
This month, I am proposing to you the adaptation of the board game "OODUNNIT" or also known as "WHODUNNIT" and "CLUE". A crime was committed and you must find the name, the weapon and the room in which the crime was committed.
Howdy, Group, Been having a conversation with this guy regarding tape vs disc. He asked if a...
The original program was created by S. Greaves and was published in the British magazine ZX COMPUTING of Mar-Apr 85 but the listing was amputated of the important line 0(zero).
In this version, I recreated this line, added numerous modifications and re-coded the entire program. I am particularly proud of the algorithm guiding the the computer to the solution of the crime. The original game was slow, this version is fast. I hope you will enjoy it.
Programs like this require hundreds of hours of work. The choice of pictures limited by the ZX81 graphics, the choice of words, the choice of texts to be understanded by people of many different languages, the creation of (fast) animation (in basic, on a ZX81), the difficult translation for the French version (the French words are always too long), the creation of algorithms to make the computer smarter, the compaction of the code to fit under 16KB of memory, the debugging and the polishing of the game down to the smallest details, all of that requires long hours of work.but it makes those UNBELIEVABLE programs for you to enjoy.
Last month program "IZXOLA" went through that process. On a scale of 1 to 10, how do you rate the graphics? The breastle page? The infos page(s)? The animation? The intelligence of the computer play? How will you rate this month program?
The "ALIEN MIND" is coming....
I will reveal my "ALIEN MIND" at the MICROFAIR on the week-end of more info. Be there for the latest in hardware and software and to meet the other ZX81 users.
