Snake TMCD677 (tvgames.me) Locomotive BASIC v1.1 PUR-120 Introduction ------------ My first attempt at writing a complete game limited to 10 Lines. Chosen Locomotive BASIC (Amstrad CPC) for auld lang syne. Pretty simple game many will remember from their old Nokia mobile phones in the early 2000's. Code is under 800 characters but a couple of lines squeek over 80 characters hence PUR-120. Game would easily be PUR-80 in just about anyother 8-bit dialect. Loading ------- The provided DSK image contains 8 versions of the game (most not working). Insert the disk into your favourite Amstrad CPC Emulator and execute: LOAD"Snake8 RUN In either CPC664 or CPC6128 modes. The recomended emulator is CaPriCe Forever by Fredouille and can be downloaded from the CPC Power website (https://www.cpc-power.com/cpcarchives/index.php?page=articles&num=445). Controls -------- Please make sure your keyboard is in lowercase mode (default) prior to running the game. UP - 'p' DOWN - 'l' LEFT - 'z' RIGHT - 'x' Instructions ------------ The game starts with a small single segment snake in the centre of the screen automatically moving to the left. Your task is to guide this snake around the screen eating numbers that will appear randomly around the screen. Each time you eat a number your snakes body will grow by that number of segments. However you need to be careful. The snake cannot move beyond the edges of the screen or cross its own path. Hit the edge of the screen or the growing body of the snake and it's GAME OVER! Beware - the top of the screen is at Line2, below the score line. Also, each time you eat a number the snakes movement will speed up by that amount. When the game ends press any key to return to Locomotive BASIC and execute: RUN for another game. Scoring ------- Snake is a high score challenge game. Who lasts the longest and eats the most numbers gets the highest score and wins. You score 10pts each time the snake moves and the value of any numbers the snake eats. Disk Catalogue -------------- Snake1.BAS - Original 5 line concept test moving snake body around screen Snake2.BAS - 1st attempt long listing; snake doesn't move; numbers appear randomly Snake3.BAS - 10Liner version of Snake2 Snake4.BAS - 10Liner. Displays snake head, first random number, then hits GAME OVER Snake5.BAS - Full anotated listing. Random numbers and snake growth are broken Snake6.BAS - Fully working game, final full anotated listing - see listin below Snake7.BAS - Fully working game. Snake 6 condensed. REM statments removed and variable names shortened Snake8.BAS - 10Liner. Fully working game.
