A quick game I adapted from some old garbage. It's written in freebasic and includes the source, there's plenty of optimisations and stuff you can make to it (the code is shit in other words )

Dodge the purple pixels and collect the treasure.

I like it. There seems to be a bug with the treasure and score where it's interpreting it as some huge number and thus it's displaying as something like 0.0000000000E+00. That said, I'm running it in Wine and I don't know if it has the same problem in Windows. Other than that it seems to run perfectly, so I don't know. Anyway, keep up the good work.

Thanks mate. I rarely get a game to turn out this good. That bug I think has to do with converting integers to decimals, should be easy to get around but I didn't see it as a high priority. I'm working on it now, got a couple of different modes in and about to make it so the high scores are saved. I'll probably update the link soon.

Updated the first link.

Add a cast to integer?

[codezero]

I think int(num) should do that anyway. The code was something like int(score*100)*.01. Seems to work now anyway.

wouldn't a /100 work just as well as a *.01

Just a slight issue, when an enemy(or the player, but it's less of a problem) crosses the boundary or treasure circles, and moved on, it leaves a graphical gap. For the player, leaving ends the game, and getting a treasure removes it, but the way the enemies carelessly delete pixels...

Not a problem unless you played with the intention of completely erasing anything, and maybe even an intended feature.

Yeah it would, but it's less expensive to compute a multiply , even though this isn't a critical area, so it was just a case of habit.

I know it can be a problem, I just didn't bother , seeing as it's not the most quality game/distraction. I will if you want though. Or you could if you d/l the freebasic compiler. I guess just put a check in the main loop to see if anything is within a bound-box of a ring and redraw it.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

declare sub redrawring
(...)
redrawring
(...)
sub redrawring
  for i as integer =1 to totbits
    if abs(bitt(i).x- apple.x) < 5 and abs(bitt(i).y-apple.y) < 5 then
      Circle (apple.x,apple.y),5,cream
    end if
  next
end sub

If you can figure out where to put all that, and you're a better programmer than me IIRC anyway, go ahead. Download freebasic compiler and run from the command line "fbc brunner.bas". It's even likely the source is more up-to-date than the .exe, but not by much. (Haven't logged into windows for a while for a win compile)

afterthought: Or you could use a sqr, probably wouldn't be any cheaper drawing the circle unnessacarily all the time. fk i can't spell that word.
