[TI-84+CE] ICE Compiler

u/p2 December 26, 2016, 12:24:52 AM

well it did look like a really nice game but I didnt expect it to look that cute in the end, I really like it

what happens if you "shoot" multiple times without moving? WIll a single snowball then be able to break the stacked arrows all at once? ^^

the only thing that might be optimized is the death... I think the snowballs should continue falling down after your death but then sink in 50% an freeze (so you have snow hills in the end) instead of them disappearing ^^

Well, you can't double shoot, without 1 powerup, so you can't break a ball immdeiately twice

You mean that after death, all the balls will only fall once, and then 'melt at the ground'?

Btw, a second game/puzzle is incoming

That's some fast puzzle-solving PT

Nice job, though

Last update:

I will only change something if someone asks

Side note: the shuffling looks fast, but it can be even faster, because I added a Pause in it

Oh, now you gave me an idea for a new ICE feature: Inverted rectangles and Inverted filled rectangles. xLIBC and HP PPL both have this and it's quite nice. Otherwise, a color shift feature like xLIBC (eg color 0 becomes color 5, color 10 becomes color 15 and color 255 becomes color 5) has would work as well.

If it's too hard to implement as rectangles then on pixel basis would do the job as well

Nice game update by the way

I believe color shifts is already implement in C, gfx_Lighten or gfx_Darken, but yet not in ICE, but (almost) all the C functions will be implemented in the new version of ICE, which I'm currently very hard working on. If I'm not right, you should poke @MateoConLechuga

Oooh cool.

Also I just saw the version added on ticalc.org. Is it more recent than what you last posted?

I don't know, I recently updated it at ticalc.org. The latest version is ALWAYS at TI-Planet, and almost ALWAYS at Cemetech, and whenever I like it, I will upload on ticalc.org too

I just want to say that pointers are implemented, but almost everything else is broken, and I want to implement a lot more functions, and I'm working on AoCE, so don't expect a new update soon

u/Dream of Omnimaga January 07, 2017, 07:54:16 PM

Good luck fixing the other issues you have when you decide to work on this again. Pointers addition will definitively be awesome

u/Dream of Omnimaga January 18, 2017, 05:13:30 PM

So I just saw that Snowball Struggle has been released last month via a TI-Planet news and I will definitively give it a try soon.

I updated ICE, the size went from 18kB to 10kB using Mateo's program compressor

Also, if you still didn't know, I made a new game in ICE, Snowball Struggle

That is cool. MateoC seems to have done a pretty good job with his compressor. It reminds me of CrunchyOS for monochrome calcs, except as standalone programs rather than requiring a shell.

I wonder if ICE games are compatible with the compressor? Opossum Massage Simulator is quite large because of all graphics.

Yep, you can compress any ASM program with his program, and the best compression was about 60%, if I'm right, so maybe you have luck

Ah nice. That said convhex doesn't appear to let me choose the output file name, so if I try to compress opossum.8xp it overwrites itself D: (EDIT Nevermind, it creates a new file with an underscore at the end of the file name). Opossum compresses to 8400 bytes or so instead of 24800 bytes
