Hive v0.01 (unfinished)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
A pretty version of Space Invaders, to demonstrate the Popcorn
library. Hope you like it. Keys are:
Z - Left Enter - Fire
X - Right Space - Special weapon
Bugs
¯¯¯¯
This is an incomplete version, and needs far too much in the way of disc
space, processor speed and so on... It also may crash in a variety of
colourful ways, so save everything before playing. So far, I know about
these problems, in order of severity:
* Occasional lock-ups while playing; Ctrl+Break doesn't work in
these situations.
* Screen memory goes strange sometimes when you quit the game;
another reset job if you want to see your desktop.
* Game slows down on ARM6 machines only, despite my carefully
thought-out compensation loop.
* Aliens get out of formation if you leave them for more than half a
minute or so.
