Sounds cool. WIll it be in BASIC, with xLib, or in Axe?

Squidgetx, you or leafiness should totally write some kind of tutorial or thread on how to make l33t calculator graphics and animations.

You might be interested in some of BuilderBoy's physics tutorials. Some one should write a sprite animations tutorial one of these days. Like, how to make good ones.

Ok, flat land is a two dimensional world, where all shapes (except pentagons) live happily.
If you were to imagine yourself in flatland (as flat), all you would see is length and width. Observing from a top view however (3d) you can see many shapes and ones behind others.
With this awesome ability, you could help the citizens of flatland solve their problems. Of course you have to get them to understand you too 
Hmm...sounds interesting but I can't picture it, quite.

I, as hopefully a great many others who are on this site, have a great deal of love for programming. I got into programming at a time in my life when I was very lonely/bored out of my mind/etc. I really feel like other people need to give programming a try, and embrace the nerdiness. Who cares what other people think? Anways, I created this thread to discuss how to "convert" people to programming, specifically programming calculators (inspired by the "Why Johnny Can't Code" thread, found here: http://ourl.ca/13080). I like to think I converted Parser Padwan, first to TI-BASIC and taught him the basics (yuk yuk yuk) of it in math class. Any conversion stories you'd like to share? What works? Parser Padwan, would you mind telling your side of the story (about your "conversion") ?

We should make a commitment to ourselves, to get 1 person involved in TI-BASIC or some other form of programming, every month. If we can get them to like it enough, we commit them to the same thing, so the system expands exponentially.

Weapons and enemies-no.

Nice! I loved that game.
Is this Axe or assembly?
^^ Looks good! Also you might want to consider adding your own game elements, such as coins, enemies (this is where it's at), power-ups, awesome sprite animations (not that those don't look good), realistic gravity, etc.

If you want to run lots of assembly programs that you can download off of sites like this one, cemetech.net, or ticalc.org, Doors CS 7 is the way to go, for now. It's probably the best shell out there currently. The thing about MirageOS and Doors CS is that it allows assembly programmers to have a library of functions that they can use. This is also why some MirageOS programs don't work from the home screen, and stuff like that. However, Doors CS 7 has full MirageOS/ION support, along with xLib and Celtic and a whole bunch of it's own functions.

This also explains why some of the only Johnnies that CAN code are those who have put in the hundreds or thousands of hours punching in tokens and strings of TI-BASIC commands on TI calculators, or an equal or greater amount of time hunched over a computer, long hours into the night, fixing this one tiny bug in this one tiny program. It makes me glad to be alive in a time and a place where I have access to programming for such a primitive computing environment.

Hey, good luck. Most Linux distros come with Python pre-installed. I know Ubuntu does, and that's the only linux I've used, so yeah.
