A85: Galaxian
Greeting TI-85 gamers!
After much inactivity, I have now decided to resume work on my Usgard
games. The first game I've restarted is Galaxian. Over the past few
days I have spent many hours of "work" playing the game in class,
and actually a few minutes of work programming the next version!
The result of this is that the next release, Galaxian 3.0, is already
well underway. After writing several experimental versions and
spreading some of them around my school, I have reached the point
that I think it is nearly ready.
I have now attached a copy of the latest test version to this
message. I think it is now stable enough not to crash. I would
appreciate if you would test this version and tell me what you
think of it!
Major changes in version 3.0i (experimental):
- More levels!
- Final bosses which are much more difficult!
- The infamous laser bug is now finally fixed!
The new stuff appears mostly in later levels. If you want to only
test them, there is a cheat key which allows you to do so. You can
press "." at any time to skip to the next level. This feature is
intended to be used for beta-testing purposes, and as such it will
take away your points.
- The change I'm not so proud of is that it takes 500 bytes more
memory. Since that is less than 2% of the calculator's total, I
hope it won't be too much of a problem for most users.
