Re: Testing new routines - shiddy Tomato Antics

[Gavin Smith]

Actually, there's some really nice ideas in that! I like the little  
weather effects, and the flowers and grass moving in the wind.  
Reminds me a little of Astroball.

Looking forward to seeing it progress - how many levels are you  
thinking of?

Just to say I`ve put a demo of level one up of Tomato Antics. Still

a proper game yet, but spent a lot of time trying to get it to as  
fast a speed
as I can, so that I can start adding in game elements.

It`s more of a reintroduction to SAM Basic and a test to see what can
be got out of the language.

anyway, it`s far too easy at the mo, and there`s a cheat enabled  
for a 1000 lives,
but if you persist through the boredom for about 5 minutes, till  
it`s rained and
stopped then I`d like your opinions on the new way of using the Put  
routines (there severely
limiting for game design though :(  )

I`m thinking that using something like this, it should be fairly  
feasable to do
the Skeet shooting level of Hypersports at a similar speed, and other
similar simple games.

Oh, redefining keys or selecting Sinclair won`t work, as there`s  
temporarily
two copies of the game, so keys are:-

O - Left,  P- Right, and M to jump higher if you hold it down, five  
superjumps
