New BBC Micro Game HELI

[Phil]

Hello everyone,

Here's my first attempt at a BBC program. Started in 1986...

HELI
Build The Bridge
Stop The Flood
Beware of Octopuses!

HELI.ssd (BBC Model B 32K)

Thank you to everyone who has helped me on the forum, especially to Richard Russell for his excellent BBC Basic implementation and editor on the Mac and Raspberry Pi which have been a joy to use.

And to the Complete BBC Archive team who added code to make more memory available.

Thanks Phil.
The game is fun, with all due limitations of a BBC basic game but fun. I just found it slightly under responsive but I do not know if it is an emulator fault or an inherent limitation of the game loop timing; anyway nice little game.

Thank you very much Nicola.
I'll investigate to try and make it more responsive.

Now version 1.5 with an option of M to turn sound off/on.

Phil
