New game in 1K Hires: Wiwo Dido,the case of Mazeddy's Castle
New game in 1K Hires: Wiwo Dido,the case of Mazeddy's Castle
Hello,
I made a 1K RAM HiRes game for the ZX81.
"Wiwo Dido and the case of Mazeddy's Castle"
During the search for Mazeddy's Castle Wiwo Dido fell through the roof and with his torch he must find 5 keys to get to the exit (set on the right).
The found keys are displayed on top of the maze so you can see if you have all keys.
Later the source and explanation of the code will follow.
Have fun,
Dr Beep

no pun intended but... its amazing what can be squeezed into 1K when you put your mind to it.
excellent work, have not tried it on a 'real' zeddy yet, but on the Eightyone the response to the keys seems a little fast and it can be difficult to stop at a junction.

True,
response is fast, but I can slow it down.
BTW, here is the code.

This is only the beginning. I have a few other ideas in mind to code in HiRes 1K RAM.
One game includes an almost fullscreen HiRes game, but due to a trick I am developping now the entire game will fit 1K Ram.
For a third game I will get a half screen HiRes, but every line will get data to display.
After coding several 1K Minigames on a ZX Spectrum this is really a challenge.

Aaaargh, it's a pity I don't have the Hi-Res modification.
Still, it looks nice on the emulator.

Would You consider making them also for standard machine (lo-res)?

No, you HAVE Hires! Use a 1K Zeddy (it's a 1K game!) and you have Hires: the 1K internal ram supports Hires ...yerzmyey wrote:Aaaargh, it's a pity I don't have the Hi-Res modification.

So Siggi , you confirm it runs on a unmodified ZX81 1K RAM?siggi wrote:No, you HAVE Hires! Use a 1K Zeddy (it's a 1K game!) and you have Hires: the 1K internal ram supports Hires ...yerzmyey wrote:Aaaargh, it's a pity I don't have the Hi-Res modification.
