I voted - Other - cheese.

I'd rather prefer pizza or something

Hey, guys! I am having a little dilemma there. I can't decide what do I want for my birthday! 
I have been thinking of getting an HP Jornada 728 to satisfy my obsession with portable electronics.
Now, maybe I should get a TI calculator instead (more features, hackable, will have two TI calculators).

Hey, guys!
I made a little falling sand game for the TI-82 (and other calculators).
It's pretty slow, as it's written in TI-BASIC, but I think it's pretty much playable.

Currently, it includes three types of particles (brick, sand, sand generator), but I'll probably be adding more soon.
The features include an edit mode (pausing the simulation) and a temporary fast mode that makes the simulation a bit faster while sacrificing the controls.

The attached GIF is at 4x speed, didn't I tell you that it's pretty slow?

The controls are described in the README.txt file. Also, included are the .82g and the .8xg files.

Juju, I suggest inverting the color of the globe. It's currently very misleading, as the black zones are actually land.

Yay! Now there's a way to inobtrusively pay for the hosting!

Do you know if it will run on ROM 16.0?

Yes, I am pretty sure it will as CrASH supports most ROM versions.

Yeah but Robot War was for CrASH too and it only rab ob ROM 19.0+

That's probably because of different ROM calls. My program uses only the common ones, so I am sure it will work for you.

Wish this ran on my calc

Ask someone like @Sorunome to port it! It's going to be very easy, if only I had a -83 or -84...

Hi!
I probably was the first to write an assembly game for the TI-82 in 4 years and it's my first program in Z80 assembly!
But anyway, here's my implementation of Conway's Game of Life!


The controls are pretty simple:
Use [MODE] to pause the  simulation to allow you to edit the cells.
Use [ENTER] to toggle the cell at the cursor.
Use the arrow keys to move the cursor.
Use [X,T,[tex]\theta[/tex]] to single-step the simulation.
Use [DEL] to reset all the cells.
Use [CLEAR] to exit the game.

It's on ticalc.org: http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/468/46801.html.
The source code is hosted on GitHub: https://github.com/SopaXorzTaker/ti-life.
Runs with CrASH.

Feel free to improve the game, and please give feedback!

Hi, I am SopaXorzTaker and I bought a TI-82 (which is about 1.5x older than me) out of boredom and the desire to try some real Z80 hardware.
I hope that the CodeWalrus community welcomes me and finally starts a project for that dead calculator (duh!!).
