Short: A DynaBlasters-style game Author: jnw22@cam.ac.uk (James Weatherall) Uploader: jnw22 cam ac uk (James Weatherall) Type: game/2play Architecture: m68k-amigaos It appears that I made a rather enormous blunder in putting TNT onto the net at the end of my last term. Checking the file at home and on friends' machines I found that it didn't work! I hasten to point out that this was a fault in the AMOS Pro Compiler which caused the included squasher not to work properly and was not due to my code being dodgy. Which is a bit of a pain, since TNT has now been sitting on the net for ages and people will have seen it not work .. how embarrassing! *SIGH* Oh well, that's life. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- TNT is basically a pretty simple DynaBlasters-style game but is NOT really a clone. The Graphics are original, courtesy of Black Ice and although the music is poor I think the game plays well. Maybe I'm just biased ...... The game allows 2-4 players, the first two require joysticks and the remaining two play on keys. Unfortunately the design of the A1200 means that there is some keyboard clash, so as soon as I find a better key combination I'll try to fix that. :) TNT was written in AMOS Basic Pro, and Compiled using, yes, you guessed it, the AMOS Basic Pro Compiler. Thanks to Francois Lionet for writing such a cool language, even if the smallest executable seems to be 50K ..... Keys for 3 and 4 player modes are: Player 3: Left: E Right: R Up: Q Down: A Fire: SpaceBar Player 4: Uses the cursor keys on the numeric key pad: Left: 4 Right: 6 Up: 8 Down: 5 Fire: Enter I'm afraid this rather buggers anyone with an A600, since they can't have four players. Maybe I'll fix this, since it's still a combination that results in keyboard clash. So watch out for future releases from S.C.R., which I hope to be writing over the summer. These include a nice roleplaying game and maybe a platform puzzler. All formula stuff, but hey, what game can really claim to be original these days?? WEZ
