TETRADS
View File
Tetrads is a clone of a popular falling brick style game. So you'll know how to play it. This version has an amazing soundtrack, which changes tunes every 40 lines cleared. There's a total of 5 unique songs which were designed specifically for the X16's combination of FM and PSG. The backgrounds, which represent science and technology, also change every 20 lines cleared. This gives the game a sense of progression and makes it not only a fun game by an adventure in sight and sound!

I don't care so much for scores, but getting to hear the next sound track gives me some decent motivation to get some practice in this game! Sounds and looks soothing ?

The online emulator runs version R38 while the downloadable (local) emulator is at R41. There were significant changes between these two versions. Tetrads was created to run on R41 of the emulator, which only runs on a host system.
One could possibly take the game code, work to get it to run on a local copy of R38 then upload it to the downloads section of this site which would allow it to run with the online emulator. That might be a lot of work with little reward. Porting code to work on outdated beta platforms perhaps has little value.
While the online administrative team has several goals for this site, updating the online emulator has not happened yet. I can't speculate if/when they choose to volunteer their free time on this task, nor the demand for such an effort.
Looking at the bigger picture, once the X16 hardware ships the game would most likely be released for that version of the X16 since the developer is also the inspiration/founder of the whole platform.
Progress is seaming being made on finalizing and shipping a production unit. Again timelines are unknown but recent posts suggest progress is being made, both on the technology and the fundraising fronts.

Woo Hoo! It works great! However, it also seems that I am horrible at this game.
Ooo! And the source code is included! Can't have too many X-16 code examples! Your coding style reminds me of that car in the Shinra company showroom, The "Big One Cylinder" which features an engine with one giant cylinder.

Apparently, he asked how to download it. As I don't speak German, I used a translation page to try to answer.
Klicken Sie auf das Spiel und wählen Sie "Download", um die Dateien herunterzuladen. Sie benötigen den Emulator und eine Umgebung, um den Emulator auszuführen.

Anscheinend fragte er, wie man es herunterlädt. Da ich kein Deutsch spreche, habe ich eine Übersetzungsseite benutzt, um zu versuchen, zu antworten.
Meine Frage war: Wie kann ich auf ein Spiel zugreifen, das sich in einem Wörterbuch befindet?
LOAD "TETRADS/TETRADS.prg",8,1
