Lines/2 - another clone of well-known game LINES (authors Oleg Demin,
Igor Ivkin, Gennady Denisov), created for OS/2 PM.
For those who unknown with the original rules:
The goal is to collect as much as possible points by combining one color balls
into lines (vertical, horizontal, diagonal). At each step program randomly
puts into free cells three balls. The step of gamer is to move one ball onto
any free cell if it's possible (there is a route to this cell). When line is
combined from 5 or more balls it's dissapeared and gamer gets a points. Game
is over when there are no free cells.
For each ball in the combined line the gamer gets one point. If line contained
more than 5 balls, for each additional (over 5) N ball the N points will be
added:
for 6 balls: 1*6+1 = 7 points;
for 7 balls: 1*7+1+2 =10 points;
for 8 balls: 1*8+1+2+3 =14 points, and so on...
If you have a sound card and MMOS2 installed, Lines/2 can use sound effects.
Parameters of audio-subsytem can be tuned by commandline switchers::
/NoAD Do not use audio
/ADVol:XX where òò - number from 0..100. Determinies volume level
of sound effects
This value is saved into LINES.INI initialisation file.
If there no such parameter when program starts, the value will
be readed from INI-file
You can join several tables (stored in LINES.INI) of best results into one.
To do this use commandline parameter:
/Res:<initialisation file>
This program is freeware.
