Here is my little contribution to the "2Button Game Competition"
Project 0xD9 - A game in 1kb
....
Your ship is stuck somewhere near Jupiter surrounded by explosive mines.
Guide your ship through the mine field using Left/Right cursors.
....
Greetings to all tiny coders around!

It attempts to set the graphics mode then exits.
I'm running vista basic with Radeon Xpress 1100, AMD Mobile Sempron.

starts fine, i see the ship and can move it around, albeit for very short.. most likely because im ruiing into mines that are invisible.. (and that would be all of them, i can see nothing but the ship)
xpsp2, radeon xpress1100 here aswell

Exactly the same thing here Rbraz. Ati x1950 , winXP sp2. Are you taking the mines from a font that might not be on the machine?

In an unusual twist, this one works fine for me (Vista Ultimate, 8600GT) :)
Nice game, I think I remember typing in something like this from a book in the Spectrum days!

Runs fine here on my little laptop. Fun to play.
Great work, rbraz. Nice to see another 1kb win
game!

Rulez. :clap:
I love 1k games, it deal with your imagination, games you could play on an Atari VCS 2600 or Mattel Intellivision.
That one makes me think a little bit to Astromash. http://www.vgmuseum.com/images/01/astromash.html (http://www.vgmuseum.com/images/01/astromash.html) You touched my heart here. ;)

I have updated it, there's a safe version included, about "invisible mines" I guess I did an unsafe usage of this character, corrected now.
I'm using "Wingdings", ship char for this font is "0xD9" hence the name of the game :), for mine I'm using "0xAD" char code.
Added one new version for mines, using the famous "skull".
For people who actually played it, glad you liked it ;D
-
safe ones doesnt work either :(

I have added one safe version using ogl quadrics, it might help (I hope :) )

Just noticed that the longer you play - the starship
goes up and so the difficulty level rises. Cool idea -
what happens when you reach the top ??
-
I could not get the new version to run either.
-
really cool game.. awesome really..
(im gonna pretend i played it, so you can get some rest instead of making more and more safe versions :P)
this is your game -> :boxer: <- that is me, trying to play it

Haha mind! You failed to be a 0xD9 pilot, you forgot to switch on your mine radar :P
Seriously, I must screw up something in the FPU asm code, it was very trick to fit this in 1kb, really, anyway I have attached a freebasic source code + compiled version for everyone here.
-
Ah, that version actually ran!
Pretty good concept.

Thanks benny! btw, no one was able to survive to the mine field yet, who will be the first one ? :P

Cool :)
-
That's very difficult!
:boxer: Well done!
The longest I survived so far is about 10 seconds.
-
None of the 1ks work (safe or not) so I guess the FPU code is screwed like you say but the FB version works fine.
-
yes, finally i managed to switch sides!! your game before -> :updance: - your game after -> :crutches:
fb version worked just fine.. pretty cool concept and not too horrible a difficulty level.. i think i managed to play for around a minute 10 or so.. then i crashed :( but i liked the game, good job

Rbraz I think there is a timing problem as it rnus much much slower on my laptop (fortunately) than my desktop. There its almost unplayable (I once lasted almost ten seconds).
-
Runs fine!
Good one.
-
Thx Positron

Taj, i have attached one version with proper timer for you to test. If it works well, I might use it for a future 4k or even for 1k using only shaders.
-
Rbraz,
the stars scroll at a good speed but the ship jumps from one side to another ... its impossible to control.

hehe, I've forgot to add speed timer control to ship movement :(
But I'm glad that the timer works fine for you, I'll use it for my next tiny prods.
