PDP Spacewar hack is finished! Now the contest is to find and identify all the changes that Thomas Jentzsch and I did to the original Atari Space War code. There are a bunch! :D

 

The game hack can be downloaded from the hack section ..

Ok .. No one is into this .. so here are the changes:

 

two different gravities selectable with a difficulty switch.

two different shot speeds/travel length selectable with a difficulty switch.

the game matrix has been rearranged and only 8 games are selectable.

smaller ships and smaller shots.

different colors!

different starting positions (PDP style)

less thrust effect.

 

All these changes make the original Atari Space War code play like the 1962 version PDP Spacewar. It is more of a strategy game than a turn and fire game.
