Something old or is it somthing new: Sploids for Next

Post by Spud »

Hi.

Thought it might be nice to port Sploids (Assemboids derivative to the Next from the SAM). Added some bonus tiles that were unused (or rather tiles I forgot to use in my rush to see the back of the SAM project) from the original to enhance it a little with MEGA POINTS now possible as a result. Otherwise it is unchanged.

If you try hope you enjoy, if you don't, that's cool too :)

The game uses the Holy Four of course, and space for fire, but it's definable to whatever works best for your individual fingers. Also joystick works if you have big hands.

The zip file includes a batch file that might be useful for launching it in cspect on Windows without needing to go to the faff of shoving it into a sd card hardfile, but for authenticity you should play on the Real Next.
