Author Topic: Invalid Tangram DE (Read 8398 times)

KermMartian · « **on:** July 19, 2007, 06:44:00 pm »

I am happy to release my primary calculator project for the last month or so, Invalid Tangram for the TI-83+/SE/84+/SE series. Invalid Tangram can best be described as a cross between Space Invaders and Tetris. Build block combos to gain powerups, then blast the enemies into oblivion while avoiding destruction. Instead of health, you have time: powerups add to your time, but enemy shots can remove it. Run out of time and the game ends. Invalid Tangram DE is based on the PC game by Josh Szepietowski and is available for both Doors CS 6.0 and Ion.

I did not posted this on cemetech because forums won't let me post but I think this should be featured on ticalc.org when it appears O_O

it look awesome, and pretty much like the original which i had on my PC for a while before the crash. Keep up the good work on those new programs!

Thanks DJ_Omnimaga, glad to hear it. Yup, I too am a big fan of the PC version, which is what prompted me to make this. I'll look into your forum access.

That looks awesome! Cool custom font. :thumbup:

Great looking game, and the font is nice as well. Graphically looks really nice, I have yet to play but looks just as amazing. Definitely a feature IMO, been a while since a shooter has been released on the z80s. Great work with the title screen as well, but the in-game menu of bars looks really great!

Thanks guys, glad you're happy with it.

i hope this get featured, but apparently michael v is against it a bit because of the spam he got via email about the game. I think this is what made contra 83 not get featured last time

hopefully he will change his mind because it's a great game

Spam? I think some of the Cemetech members might have emailed him about it, but that's what ticalc.org's About page says to do. That seems kinda prejudiced if "many people like it" == "spam".

Edit: And since when is he the omniscient guru about who gets to be feature? There's other news editors too.

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #8 on:** July 22, 2007, 03:07:00 am »

Well Michael_V is the only news editor who is active so far.

I personally think they should feature it anyway even if they got lot of emails (which they seems to call spam), because in some case it could be out of your control, like, everyone who liked the game emailed them

Welcome back Jon

Yeah I remember when I first saw this without any of the graphical dressings it was still sweet. Looks like a lot of in-game action.

KermMartian · « **Reply #12 on:** July 22, 2007, 02:11:00 pm »

Thanks again. MV said he will consider featuring if I "polish" it a bit based on his suggestions.

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #13 on:** July 22, 2007, 03:56:00 pm »

by polish what does it means?

Speler · « **Reply #14 on:** July 22, 2007, 04:00:00 pm »

It means, 'I don't like you, but I may if I feel like it'
