The game finally arrives on your CX
« on: November 09, 2011, 04:05:33 pm »
Those who have visited the forums probably noticed that Hoffa was working on a turn-based strategy game in Lua for the TI-Nspire CX. It was submitted for TI-Planet's and Inspired-Lua programming contest but was not available for download yet, unlike the other files.

Today, the game finally arrives on your CX!


This game shows more of the potential of the Lua language on the CX by using great looking images and graphics, along with entire tilemaps like we've seen in Bobby Carrot a few months ago. The style is kinda similar to Advance Wars but also other '90s strategy games of this tactical genre. However it is not finished yet, so there might be some bugs. We wish good luck for the author on this project and hope to see it finished in the near future!

This looks incredibly promising! The graphics and colored tilesets look wonderful.

Perfect use of the CX's beautiful graphics. It looks about as beautiful as any game I've ever seen on any platform :)

This is looking pretty cool, so it's like Advanced Wars?

I can't begin to describe how wonderful this game is.  Why buy a game boy advance?

this does look fantastic =D
the colour scheming in particular is something that stood out. none of the screens or menus overly abuse the colour screen, but the colour still plays a vital role. i love it!
