Update - "Alien Attack" WIP

[easmith]

Updated .bin file .

 

Still has a ways to go but taking shape one aspect at a time, enough to graduate from "Shooter" to "Alien Attack".

Basic slide and shoot. Protect your bases and destroy the aliens.

 

One thing I need to add is a two digit score at the top. Any advice on an easy routine would be appreciated.

 

Also, I need to generate 1 random number . Just 1 number . Currently the "random " enemy motion is just based on the horizontal position of the player. Any easy routine would be appreciated.

 

Much thanks to ZachAttack and SpiceWare

the random number generator routine from SpiceWare's /Collect/ should do it.

 

I also think /Collect/ has a 2 digit score routine you can scavenge or change for your purposes

Looking good! Personally I would like it if the bullet were a little bigger. I'm very old and seeing that tiny dot is not as easy as it used to be. Also, I agree that you want a better determinant of enemy movement, because once I figured it out, it was ducks in a barrel time!

 

Also, I made it to this screen! Did I win?

 

Keep up the great work!

that was supposed to be the "you are dead" screen but I changed to just a freeze-frame with color cycle.
