So, I was digging around my old files. And I found the very first playable game I made in Axe Parser! It's called Rockslide, and, um, there's a bunch of falling rocks you have to avoid. And if they hit you, you get smashed!

Here it is:



The reason I'm posting this, accompanied by it's source code, is for all those Axe beginners who really want to, but don't know how, to get started programming in Axe. It's kind of simple, but it's just about all I knew before coding Spacky Emprise, and then Spacky 2, and now Base 671 (which is actually pretty good (albeit not complete yet). 4th time's the charm, eh?). This is how I got started, and anyone who wants to get going with Axe might be interested in checking out the source code.

EDIT: whoops, forgot to attach the files

The way the source code is commented isn't great (in fact, i'm having a hard time remembering if I put ANY comments in the source...) but it's not complicated.

Nice, it looks like a good resource. I have a bad habit of writing comments with random symbols that make sense only to me

I have the bad habits to make long sentences of comments but I use Croquette
Also, good idea of releasing this

I want to make a program that reads each tile in a map from a matrix and then draws grayscale sprites accordingly. is that easy or hard would you say?

That looks nice, buttsfredkin.  I think it's pretty cool for a first Axe game.

That would take DAYS in basic.

lol I highly doubt it would run all that fast either. no offense to BASIC, it's a fine language.

EDIT

thanks butts. (can I call you that?) I'll check it out. 

lol why not?

Sweet. thanks. much faster than typing the full name.

Or even [Ctrl] [C], [Ctrl] [V], which is what I use on some nics.
