RALLY 1K
----- --
Created by Fernando M. Barletta

In this game you have to drive a car by a track without crash with edge.
To control car use:
5-rotate left
8-rotate right
7-Accelerate

The game is over when you crash or make a whole lap.

I hope you enjoy it.

Sinclair ZX-81


The games are stored as .p files, whatever those are.


Windows

  The recommended emulator is No$zx81,

    http://www.work.de/nocash/zx8.htm

  Unpack it to a directory and start NO$ZX8.EXE. Select File ->
  Cassette menu (directory) in the menu. Doubleclick on a .p to start
  the game.


Unix

  Try Z81,

MacOS

  Try ZX81,

    http://emulation.net/sinclair/


Amiga

  The recommended emulator is Z81,

    http://www.lagernet.clara.co.uk/8bitemu.html

  Start the emulator from CLI/Shell, with the following command:

    xz81 FILENAME.P

  Where FILENAME.P is the name of the game you want to play. If that
  doesn`t work, try the following instead:

    xz81 -w FILENAME.P

  This opens the emulator in a workbench window.
tetris1k - entry for 2002 Minigame Compo

Public domain by Russell Marks (rus@svgalib.org)

for the 1K ZX81 (should also work on 16K machines)


tetris1k is Yet Another Tetris clone (see last year's entries to see
what I mean ;-)). It's nothing special, but since I already had the
thing written I thought I might as well enter it, if only to make sure
the ZX81 was represented in the competition.

The controls are:

S   rotate
D   drop
K   left
L   right

The only prompt you get for "press a key to play" is a question mark
in the top-left of the screen. :-)

I had to cut some rather major corners in the implementation, as you'd
imagine, and the obvious one is that there's no score display - I
didn't have the room to add this and still run on a unexpanded ZX81.
And it would be a bit silly to have a 1k game which didn't work on the
1k version of the machine, wouldn't it? :-)

PS. The source, suitable for assembly under Unix/Linux using zmac, is
here in src.tar.gz.
