yup Turbo Breakout 68k is really awsome, but it seems that the author posted this file on ticalc.org pretty late, since it has been on ti-fr like weeks ago... Flavien Racine is such a good programmer, making all those games like Pacman, which are my favorites =)

yup yup yup! Turbo Breakout is a really good game. It runs fast even with 4 level grayscale. It dosn't matter that the game was posted late(maybe coverting French>English?), its out now and we can all play it now! =)

I do have to agree. This is a great game. (The first asm breakout clone for the 89 which doesn't crash every time I try to play.) I'd have to call it amazing, did it not have the crazy physics.

~ Remember to eat your parmesan, kids!

you should try that breakout game by joe w.(the guy that made dimonda, and the ion shell for the ti83+)
it is not as good as tbo, but i just had to tell you that tbo was not the only working breakout....

- skyraid

alright ill try it

Wait a minute....I tried that one before. It is the one that kept getting all weird with the contrast and not working correctly. So Tbo is still the best.

/me mumbles something with the words "french" and "arrogant"

I'll take a copy of that transcript. :)

ARGHHHHHHHH. I can just see the headlines now...

> TICALC.ORG SHOCKER AS NICK D INSULTS FRENCH!
> INTERNATIONAL DISPUTE STARTS!
> WORLD WAR III IS DECLARED!
> BRITAIN TAKES THE SIDE OF THE FRENCH (OK, maybe not too likely!)
> FRENCH TAKE THE SIDE OF THE US, AND DECLARE WAR ON BRITAIN
> ALL THREE COUNTRIES DECLARE WAR ON TICALC.ORG, FINANCED BY PSYCHOCORP

What about Sweden?

I think it should be given an award for putting up with being confused with Switzerland. Or maybe vice versa.
But they should NOT be given an award for singing. Eugh.

Hey, dude...Flavien Racine didn't even upload it. I did it for him. Nick and I were on AIM one day when I asked him if he's ever played this game, and when he said no and that I should upload it, I did! The game's been out for a VERY long time now...its been on TI-News, TI-Fr, and the Flash Z homepage for a while. Its not much of a new program if you've been checking those sites. THis version of the game is not very crash-prone on my calculator...but when the ball starts gaining speed, the paddle always slows down to a crawl for me, ultimately making me lose the game. Otherwise, this is a magnificent game that deserves much merit.

This game is super cool and the speed is amazing...i have to actually slow the speed down (i got a HW2, AMS2.03) oh well, great game, sometimes i wish i was french and could make cool games

>sometimes i wish i was french and could make cool games
????????????????????????????????????????
The author makes good games despite the fact that he's french, not because of it!

Who cares about graduation when you have TICalc.org? :)

I have absolutely no idea what that means... but okay :)

He means that if you were to, you shouldn't, but if you were to have a company have a little advertisement at the top of this website, you'd be supported as long as the school system continues to use TI graphing calculators. It's a bad idea for the users of the website though, so don't do it. I mean, ticalc could probably recieve more hits in an hour than zilog.com in a day. Ticalc is that great! =)

And we're ranked higher than nasa.gov as far as "popular hardware/technology sites" on worldhot.com :)

--BlueCalx

probably because there's no mistaking metric units for standard units when programing :-)

NASA? Hahaha... booom! Where'd it(Mars Lander)go? =)

Tonight's Fight:

Mars Patrol
vs.
Mars Lander

Im going to have to go with Mars Patrol. You'd think with all the billions spent on the Mars Lander, it'd have some kind of laser to fight back against the Mars Patrol ship...
