Test your reaction time in this short game written in basic. It's fast! You have to wait for a random period and press space when NOW appears. If you press too soon the delay will start over. Have fun! basic_reaction.zip

Here's a neat little game using just one line of basic - 0 X=X-1+(PEEK(49168)=160)*2:NORMAL:PRINTSTAB(X+19);:INVERSE:?" ":S=S+1:IFABS(X)<5THEN0 Use space to steer line and avoid going too far left or right. Disk contains game and instructions. Have fun with this one! spool_1_liner.zip

The basic listing is available! an_unusual_dream_listing.txt

The basic code here hard to explain - 9000-9010 is the list of actions, which uses A as a variable. 9100-9115 is the objects. 9100 datame,1,1,0,0 - this is object #1 or the player location first 1 is the room location, second number is 1=untakable 0=takable third number is the object it is inside or being carried by. if the player is carrying it the value will be 1 if it is 0, it is not carried or in container last number 0=not a container or surface 1=open container 2=closed 3=surface (can put things 'on' it.) 9200-9219 room titles and linkers for north,south,east,west,up, and down.

A short text adventure, not too serious. It uses an advanced version of the one key system that was in Valley Of Treasures, with containers you can open,close and put things in. It's pretty good for 10k of basic. There's a few interesting "puzzles" in this one. an_unusual_dream.zip

I played a few of the breakout clones on online at classicdosgames.com, and learning about a lot of these games at the Pixelmusement youtube channel.

Forgot to add the game is "Valley Of Treasures" and information on the original game can be found here. http://www.gb64.com/game.php?id=23284

Here's a new short text adventure (less then 5k) for the Apple II. Originally written in 2011 for the Commodore 64, it has been converted with a few minor improvements. Instead of typing commands, you use a key to cycle through a verb and object options. valleyoftreasures.zip

A small game about 1.2k in size, in BASIC with some machine code for the fast part of the game. Stop the moving dot when it turns white but before it hits the wall with spacebar. The dots get increasingly faster. Score 30 to win. It runs in regular hi-res mode with custom graphics for the score and title. scoop.zip

Nice game so far!

I'm guessing until late 2013.

I see it lasting at least until 2014.
