Dodgy Snail Game
----------------
Ever own a Master System? Ever play the Secret Hidden snail game that some
versions of the MS Bios contained? Well, this is an almost-conversion. It
is the same game, but the levels are different, it is not as well programmed
(I had only bought Blitz a week or two before I wrote this) and there are
only 6 levels.
It is self-explanatory enough. To run it, just double-click the icon. To
install it, just copy the directory to your hard drive.
The full source code is included.
You can make your own levels, if you are bored enough:
- Draw the maze with DPaint/PPaint or similar, using the existing mazes as
templates;
- Save the IFF in the "Mazes" draw as MazeXX.iff (replace XX with maze
number);
- Edit a file called MazeXX.dat (XX should be the same as above);
- Type the 3-figure X co-ordinate of where the top-left corner of the
finish icon is displayed, and press return.
- Repeat the above for the Y co-ordinate.
- Type a 1-figure value for the direction that the snail must be travelling
when it hits the exit. This is daft, but I was only a baby when I was
writing this program. 0=up, 1=down, 2=right, 3=left, the press return.
- Type the 3-figure X co-ordinate of where the top-left corner of the
start icon is displayed, and press return.
- Repeat the above for the X co-ordinate.
- Save the text file.
And there you go!
