BRIX Version 1.00
programmed by 10/1991 by Michael Riedel
***************************************************************************
Introduction
I'm a student of computer science in Karlsruhe, West Germany. After
my last test, there were 6 weeks of emptiness lying before me. So I decided
to fill this hole with training my VGA-Programming skills. This is
what came out of this.
The Game
BRIX is an arcade-style strategy game. After the starting screen
a tree of levels is shown. Depending on the number of the level
you have one, two, three, ... choices. Each of the choices consists of
4 problems which have to be solved to get to the next level.
THE ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM ON THE RIGHT BOTTOM.
In the tree of levels, use SPACE to select one (only the blue Problems
can be selected).
In a problem you have to move the icons together (vertically or horizontally)
and they BLAST AWAY. There should be no icons left, or the problem is
not solved. Attention: Sometimes it is necessary to put together three
icons at once! On the left side the level, problem-numbers, the remaining
time and some statistics on the icons left on the playing field are
displayed.
The selector is controlled with the cursor-keys, space toggles between
move and select mode. During the game, ESC exits (immediately!),
F4 restarts the level (up to 2 times, but the time continues). If you have
used F4, there will be no bonus count.
If time runs up, you can continue by pressing space (5 lives).
Technical issues:
This game uses a 320x200, 256 color-mode. The timing-loop uses the
real-time-clock, so you must have at least an AT-class-computer!
The game comes equipped with 112 different levels. I have written a
level-editor to design the levels. If you want to do your own
level(s), write or mail to me (adress below), so that i can send you the
level editor.
Release notes:
I release this programm into the public domain, but if you enjoy it
you may send me ANY amount you want (Michael Riedel, Volksbank Karlsruhe,
West Germany, BLZ: 66190000, KtoNr.: 909599) ---- Thanks a lot!!!
The best way to communicate with me is via the BITNET or INTERNET
(see adresses below).
