atari2600land's Blog - Fun With a TI84+

[RSS Bot]

Well, I got a TI84+. Seeing as how it came with the USB wire and it had more memory than a TI83+. I'm going to program (and download) games for it. My first few attempts were futile, mostly because I didn't know what I was doing, but I finally did something at least a little worthwhile. An original game concept called "Fill 'Er Up" in which you fill up the screen with plus signs, but there's an asterisk that randomly goes around the screen erasing your plus signs. Not only that: if you run into the asterisk head on, the game ends. Before this, I tried to do a Tic-Tac-Toe game and a Pac-Man game, but Fill 'er Up is the game I'm most proud of. Right now, it's a WIP, mostly because I need to figure out how to keep a score. I need to figure out how to score in this game and then program it. If you have a TI83+, TI83+SE, T84+, or TI84+SE, you can download my game here. I need to figure out how to download games to it, though. Oh, and it snowed briefly yesterday morning. Very briefly. About a couple minutes' worth. And not only that, I was awake to see it.
