+Retrospect Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Shit House Blues.zip << Zip containing game files for XB, and EA5, and a little manual js99er-20230824233518.webm Shit House Blues is a game similar, but not the same as , Outhouse for the TRS-80. You control your drone with the number 1 wired remote controller, moving in all directions and you can fire in 8 directions ... care must be taken though as you can only fire when moving. Shoot the shit-rag bandits before they steal all your toilet paper. You start with 99 rolls . Bonus is given at end of each round with score added (10 points per remaining roll) As you progress the game gets harder. Wave 1 is just the shit-rag bandits, wave 2 is those plus the Zappers. Wave 3 onwards has all that AND a Saucer that tracks you movements in the hope of ramming your drone. An extra life is awarded at the bonus screen if you only have 1 drone remaining at that point. Be careful moving around as there is an electricity wire above the shit-house. Also the Saucers spawn on the screen in random locations - it's wise to keep moving! If all shit-rags are stolen then the game will end no matter how many lives remain. 11 2 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Ksarul Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 You sir, have an evil attraction to games with included Arse Biscuits. LOLOL I suspect that is a good thing, as I enjoy playing each and every one of them. . . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senior_falcon Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 (edited) Very funny concept, and as usual, well executed. The one question it leaves unanswered is this: is the toilet paper mounted so it goes over or under the roll? Inquiring minds want to know...

ti99iuc Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 Retrospect! The game is very funny! a bit hard to play for my also due to the fact that I am getting older and the arthritis in my hands is starting to show! I also really like the cover of the manual which is inspired by the old style of Texas Instruments manuals but without copying it completely, great idea! I didn't know this game on TRS80 it was also nice to go to see what the original was like. Thank you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Retrospect Posted August 27 Author Share Posted August 27 The term Shit house blues was something I thought I'd made up for when you can't get to the toilet for any reason. Turns out it's commonly used ?! Also there's a song ! 😄 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, some liberties have been taken over the years, but I believe George Washington and his troops sang this before sneaking across a frozen river and, well, you know the history. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
