A downloadable game

"FALLING BALLS (10 liner)" is a simple arcade game for one player. The player must drop balls into the baskets at the bottom of the screen, in the shortest possible path. The longer the ball travels across the screen, the fewer points he/she accumulates. 

 

This game runs on three different 8-bit home computers: ATARI 400/800/XL/XE, AMSTRAD CPC 664 and TRS-80 COLOR COMPUTER 1/2.

I'd like to participate with this program in the 2024 edition of the Contest, in the category "EXTREME-256". This is the file where there is a proof that the game belongs to the above category:

The various disk images with the program can be downloaded from this link:

Here I published "step-by-step" instructions on how to load, list and launch the program on the various emulators, and how to play it: https://github.com/spotlessmind1975/falling-balls-10liner/blob/main/docs/instruc... A detailed explanation of the source code is available here:

Greetings Spotlessmind1975,

we hope you doing great. I am Areeba Malik (aka Titania) from the BrewOtaku-Team, we are launching our first homebrew gaming magazine soon. We loved your work and we have mentioned your game "Falling Balls” in our very first issue.

Please share your contact details if you would like to have a digital copy of our magazine. As we intend to sell the magazine at a very affordable price, you would need to keep it confidential for you only, of course you would get a free copy.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.

Kind regards

Fun and mindless gameplay, but the most interesting aspect of this entry was the great explanation and other details to be found in the repository ..
