Yoshi v1.0 released
Posted on 23 December 1998, 18:51 GMT
Brandon Sterner, a member of TCPA (TI Calculator Programming Alliance), has released Yoshi v1.0 (SOS) for the TI-83. Tim Anderson and Miles Raymond designed the graphics for the game. Yoshi was originally a NES and Gameboy game and is similar, in some ways, to Tetris. Yoshi will be ported to the TI-82, TI-85, and TI-86 in the future. Some other games currently being developed by TCPA include Pong, Centipede, Asteroids, and Battleship.

Yes!!! This game is awesome. I've been playing fit for the last 10 minutes since I downloaded it. Great job Guys!! This ranks up there with the greatest 83 games!! Is there going to be another version w/high scores???? That would make the game even better. Or maybe grayscale. That would make this game the best ever!!
Thanks TCPA,
Chris Moultrie

Great idea, great game. I loved the old NES Yoshi, and finally someone has come up with the guts and intuition to port it to a TI-Calc. Keep up the good work. =)

Great Job Guys, this is an Awesome Game!!! Great Job on the TCPA Site also, Brandon... =) Hey, well I'm glad I could be a part of this game with all the "helpful" suggestions I had as a Beta Tester. I'll definetly get the 82 Port out soon, if you ever release the source code, Brandon! hehe... Well, I shall have it done before I hafta go back to school which is January 6th, so the 82 release can be expected in about 2 weeks... I know there is an 86 port happening, and I heard that there is someone who is willing to port it to the 89. =P I hope we can get this to all the calcs soon, so is there anybody who will make this game for the 85 or 92? =)

Yup, this is a good game
BUT:
Why isn't there a way to choose your level?
AND/OR a way to change the difficulty?

Programming Groups

Has anyone noticed just how cool programming groups are? Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems like before the only real cool games were being released by single, talented programmers. This meant fewer games, less ports, and generally less quality. However, now that some groups like TCPA and AZC have formed, it seems like the TI calc community will soon be seeing tons of great games and programs, with better graphics and more ports. This is something we could really, really use. The only bad thing I can think of is that individual programmers will have a hard time competing. But hopefully this will not matter too much. BTW, cool game idea? Crystal Caves in grayscal. I would love to see it...
