Re: REBOUND - New 16K ZX81 Game
Thats great! I've tested it today on my real hardware with Chroma and Joystick!
Hard to believe this is running on a ZX81 - sometimes the game is a little bit too fast for me
When there are three balls the same time - it's hard to see all of them....
Some little sound for the ZXpand-AY would be the last thing to add!
I think we play it a little bit on the party tonight
Wish you a great year 2015!

Re: REBOUND - New 16K ZX81 Game
Thanks Jungsi, it's always good to get feedback on the games I write.
Unfortunately I'm pretty awful at doing SFX/music (something which initially attracted me to the Largely silent Zeddy!), but there is room in the game to include some if somebody wants to provide some code snippets?

Re: REBOUND - New 16K ZX81 Game
Hi Daryn! Yeah, it's fast, but if it was slow it'd be too easy!
The speed of the game is something I thought about a lot when I was writing it. If it's too fast it's unplayable, but too slow and it simply becoming boring and monotonous - which is obviously something I wanted to avoid. So the speeds are roughly based around those of Arkanoid and Batty on the Spectrum.
