[Axe] Link Port Pong
« on: July 03, 2014, 05:15:56 pm »
Here is my first game using the link port  :) 
(if the screenshots get out of sync, that's just me sucking at wabbitemu, the program doesn't do that)

Calc 1:


Calc 2:

Oh cool, that's nice-looking, and good work on making a link-play game, having made one I know it's usually a PITA to get things working :P

Wow, that looks so simple, yet so nice! My eyes love it :3
And cool that you managed to get link play working. There aren't many games with link play.

Awesome. Just wondering, though: How well does it play when you link an original 84+ hardware (that was about 13.9-14.5 MHz) with a 2007 or later model (slightly over 15 MHz) or a regular 83+? Does the game wait for the other calc to respond back and forth or does it just go out of sync like ZTetris?

Thank you everyone  ;D


And I haven't tested it on anything other than two ti 84+ calculators (yet), but the game has several repeat loops to insure that the calcs are always in sync. I also made it user-proof so that if someone quits early or unplugs the cable at a random time, the calcs go back to the connecting screen instead of freezing.

Starcraft.


Just kidding, but I wonder if a 2D racing game would be easy to do? Maybe just a game with obstacles but instead of dying you just slow down when hitting them. The one to reach finish line first wins.


Would the Pong game above be feasible using CalcNet?

Calcnet already has such a pong game, only it uses multiple screens. Using a single screen is actually easier, since it just mirrors what the other calcs have and only one needs to handle any physics.

Okay, something I always wanted to do: Make an RPG game where multiple users can plug in and play on the same map, and when users enter the same area, they show up on each other's screens. Players can talk to each other, trade, battle, et c etera.
