First Spear Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Interesting. A very slow racing game. I could imagine this on an Intellivision with ECS for 4-controller play. Another Color Squares Mode game? http://chalochalogame.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+DZ-Jay Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 (edited) Looks like it has some interesting game mechanics. Unfortunately, it also looks like it was designed by a corporate UX graphics designer. It looks like people are playing on a PowerPoint deck. It would be cool to see if anybody could translate the concept to a more ... interesting ... looking play field. I would like to see that. dZ.

carlsson Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 (edited) It reminds me of live mapping in orienteering competitions, with a touch of SNAFU. Not the best of examples, but here is how Livelox works. It uses GPS trackers which record or transmit data, illustrated as colored tracks superimposed on a map. https://youtu.be/ELNkQT-Cals Edited February 26, 2023 by carlsson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they had tried to give a bit more of an impression of a geographical map (it doesn't have to be an actual map, but at least give some visual cues that offered that impression), it would look more interesting -- at least to me. As it stands, as cool as the game-play sounds, I cannot bring myself to stare at that generic, sterile, corporate-looking screen for more than a few seconds. -dZ.

I don't know if it's something I would want to implement though. It would need too many compromises to work on Intellivision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
