accousticguitar Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 (edited) Now for sale at Good Deal Games. http://www.gooddealgames.com/inventory/Atari%202600.html Many thanks to Random Terrain for posting the movement code that made this game possible. This game was inspired by Slot Racers. I always thought (and still do) that Slot Racers would be more fun if you could just point the cars in the direction you want to go. I tried to hack the game to do just that but failed. Since I couldn't hack Slot Racers I decided to program a bBasic game similar to it that would use the type of directional controls I was looking for. Here is the result. Kar Kombat is a two player only game. The object is to shoot the opponents car 50 times. After 50 shots the game freezes until the reset button is pushed.

StanJr Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 My son loves Slot Racers, but it's a tedious chore for me to play it with him. Maybe this will help. Is this finished and are you releasing it on cart or at least allowing Al to put it on a cart for purchase? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accousticguitar Posted July 20, 2017 Author Share Posted July 20, 2017 It's finished for now. I thought about adding a feature or two but I've got other things that need to get done at this time, unfortunately. I have no plans to release it on cart but anyone who wants to do so is welcome. I doubt it's high enough quality for Al to put in the store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
