freetz Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Ok, then I'll start ... 1K RainBox is a one-of-a-kind puzzle game: It is probably one of the most colorful ones with tiles consisting of more than 100 colors of the ATARI rainbow (including 13 different colors horizontally), and it is most likely the smallest of its kind: Its size is less than 1000 bytes - bytes, not kilobytes or megabytes... The goal of the game is simple, yet addictive: After choosing one of the nine levels using the SELECT key, the game starts after pressing the START key or fire button. The ATARI then begins to mix up the nicely sorted ATARI rainbow. Once it is done with its task, the player’s task is to bring the rainbow back to its original order, making as few moves as possible. To do so, you can move one of the adjacent boxes into the empty spot. Step by step, you can restore the rainbow’s order, and the fewer steps it takes you compared to the moves it took the ATARI to mix it up, the higher your score will be. For the playfield, there are four different tile-sets available which you can change at any time using the OPTION key. And now have fun cleaning up the ATARI rainbow! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Philsan Posted Thursday at 07:28 PM Share Posted Thursday at 07:28 PM It seems very nice! I would change name because there's a 2012 homebrew named Line Runner, free to download. 60 cartridges were made by GR8 Software with Android/iPhone original game programmers permission. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
