Hi MSX people !
I'm writing to all of You to explain an idea I had a lot of time ago.
I was thinking to develop a battle game: blah, what the news !!!
No this was my idea:
I intended to develop a program that was able to read 2 files.
These files were the source code to control the action of a simulated
'robot'.
I must be more clear ....
The game screen is a grid of established dimension.
Each cells can contain one of these objects (randomized positioning):
NULL
Enemy's robot
pyramid (Marco Casali will apreciate this)
cobweb
mine
Pyramids are the place where robots can find new weapons (laser, shield,
mines, ...).
If a robot goes in a cell where there is a cobweb is blocked for 2 turns.
If a robot goes in a cell with a mine it takes 3 damnages.
Each robot has 10 points of life.
The files that the program loads are the code that each robot execute.
In the program we can find the following instruction :
UP |
DOWN |__\ No more than 3 equal istruction for
LEFT | / each program
RIGHT |
USE
GOTO
IF (condition) GOTO (point of program) ELSE (point of program)
Each robot is equipped with a sonar and a radar.
Sonar is good for distance less than 3 cells (it' precise).
Radar is good for distance less than 7 cells but with a dubtful measurement.
Each robot execute an istruction of the code than pass the move to the
opponent.
The target of the game is to write the best program able to kill all the
other enemy written by other people.
This is the idea. I left it in a drawer for long time, also because it's a
game that is fun if there is a lot of people involved.
Now I'm asking to all of You if there's someone interested in developing it
...
No great graphic, no wonderful sound, only a good engine to test the ability
and the intelligence of each one.
Let me know Your opinions.
Bye bye
Stefano Fronteddu
