Basic Pascal 1.19 Little Ball – little games about little ball. Retro fun
Version 1.19 is a big and difference. So inside of it - there are several plans. Today it is about plan – little ball. Such a small and funny name. And not as a nothing, it has some meaning. So, there are two little games. They are about little ball. You throw little ball in the wall. Such kind of games. And smash something. From the opposite side. And get scores after this. And two games have this one theme. But they are made as different games.
And also, it is my practice for programming language BBC Basic for SDL2. Excellent thing! It is something like with retro style. Of some computer BBC Micro. And during same time it is modern version of retro Basic. Modern in a part, that easy start and everything is emulation like a retro. With good resolution of screen if you need it. And all is modern. But retro.
B Ball. First game with this plan. And it is upgraded version for game – most first written with this new for me, in those days, programming language. There, it was a simple game. About little ball that you throw in a little wall. There were few colors there. And everything is simple.
And now this is continue for this theme. Again, little ball. And for this time, it is everything colorful. And there are effects. And everything is so colorful here. And, so, information is here at the screen. There is accuracy and destruction, two types of skills. And everything is shown during the game, about what is going on. And there are bonus system.
So, about a bonus system. You gain them for your actions. Double strike, triple and five times strike. You need to smash, as idea, whole little walls. Bricks in a walls. So, this is useful. System information at the screen - cool feature. Also, there is here a colorful statistics. This is rather advanced version of first game from the past.
BC Row. BC this is shortcut from BBC. Like BBC Basic. But I do it my own way. This is also about a little balls. And also, about a little wall. But as a pseudo three dimensional form. You are here as with a bowling do some aim. And throw your little cube. It needs to hit something.
So, you to hit little cubes. So here you need to aim. That’s why there are not lots of little cubes here. From one up to four. And that’s all. Simple game. Not long. About little cubes.
First it is one little cube. You smash it and go to next level. Next there are two little cubes. You hit two cubes. It is to appear 1 little cube. And you hit it – and level complete. But you need to hit straight, with no little left or little right, straight to the cube. And not to miss. This is all the feature. And with every level it adds one little cube and it is going backward counting.
Everything is so black at the background. And several colors. Palette is with 16 colors. Retro standard. And effect of distorting about size. Something like it is three dimensional. More far it is from you - less object is with size. Effect of distorting size. And two lines at the side. With them you can navigate, a little.
Idea of the game – it is a little like bowling. Like throw sphere and try to hit something. But some its own way.
With BBC Basic for SDL2 I programming right now a little games about a little ball. This is I see as a funny. Such a simple fun and joyful theme. For such retro basic!
