The second 1k bB game

[+atari2600land]

Hi, I'm back with another 1k bB game. This time I have 1027 bytes left, which is a tiny bit less than 1k. I don't know how feasible the game idea is, though. Spent about 4 or 5 hours trying to get the idea and the game down to 1k. You are a smiley face again, and your job is to eat the little dots that appear on the screen. The barrier and you always move to the right. Only trouble is, there's a deadly barrier that if you run into the game ends. The barrier goes faster than you do, so in order to get to the top of the screen where it's safe and the barrier can't touch you, press and hold fire for as long as you want to be up there. If you hit the barrier, the game freezes, at which point, press down to start a new game. That's me trying to explain the game, but the true way to explain it is to play a few rounds. Again, asm as well as bas files have been attached.

Quirky game but I like it, took me a little bit to completely understand what you were talking about!
