New ZX81 Games

[dr beep]

Working and a great little game. The screen is actually larger than I expected too. Thanks again to our resident 1K genius Dr Beep!

Always trying to get the most out of 1K.
The error was that during initialization (copying 11 buffers) the intrupt occured and all buffers were called without being copied.

Name of Software: ZX Adventure
Author: Steven Goodwin
Release Date: 25/01/2021 (I think)
Requirements (eg. 1K, 16K, AY Card, Hi-Res Scheme): 16K
Commercial. But will prepare the source for a GPL release at some point

Description:
Inspired by the classic Atari 2600 game of the same name, this is an arcade adventure game where you must find the Chalice of Sirdal (that you gambled away) and return it to your king.





The Spectrum version is undergoing a re-work (to incorporate the improvements made in the ZX81 version) and will be released soon. (And is also connected to my "20 GOTO 10" book)

It's by no means massive and i did my best to squeeze it into 2k but it might need more

It's a tiny version of colossal cave, minus the dragon. at least it's supposed to be. I have no confidence in my ability to make games

Enjoy my dumpster fire

Is this eligible for the CGC or am just another troll?

Hi.

You could enter it into the Crap Games Competition.

For me it's not a great game.

But I suggest you use the adventure template in the book The ZX81 Pocket Book https://archive.org/details/zx81pocketbookthe chapter 9 on page 94.

With this you can create any adventure you like.

The book can be found cheap online https://www.bookfinder.com/book/9780950730226/ or you can use the PDF version on The Internet Archive linked above.

Christmas is just around the corner so i made this.

It's based off of my 4th birthday on Flora street Stockton CA

I remember the space set and everything. I dreamed of wanting to be a space man. Alas, I cannot. I have a crippling fear of heights.

Remembering it all...Well, i want you to experience it too.

RIP to everyone that made my life so joyful

So early merry christmas to all

Grandma's are dead, Aunt is dead, But this allows me to spread a little cheer.

God bless
