calomin-1.0-D Caverns of the lost miner is a platform logic game Written by Michael Kalous in 2007. Contact: [email protected] Developed using cc65 2.11.0 This game runs only on eight bit Atari (800XL and better). The game demonstrates, that with cc65 you can easily develop a game which has: - sounds and music - graphics - joystick control - assembler subroutines - sprites Caverns of the lost miner - how to customize ============================================ 1. Software you need ==================== - GNU/Linux is strongly recommended, but you can use also Cygwin under Windows or convert shell scripts into batch files - CC65 C cross compiler - Java Runtime Environment 1.3 for running utilites minilinker and lowerbit 2. How to edit ============== - You can edit caves by using calomin_editor, download at game web page - You can edit graphics by editing font located at data/clmfont.fnt Caverns of the lost miner A logical game for 8-bit atari by BAKTRA ======================================== 1.Game goal =========== Your task is to guide the lost miner through 13 dangerous caves 2.Controls ========== Use keyboard at title screen: START - start game C - select starting cave (the cave must be reached in previous game) D - select difficulty ESC - COLD START Use keyboard and joystick in the caves: START - return to menu OPTION - instant death JS - move the lost miner FIRE + JS - three sorts of jump 3.Running from TAPE or DISK =========================== - Since version C, the memory layout of the program has been rearanged, so this program works with (at least) DOS 2.5. DOS XE, TOS 4.1 BL+, FLOP DOS. Running from disk is now easy. - calomin_tape.xex is dedicated to tape recorder users. Too slow with unmodified tape recorder. Works also with Turbo 2000 or Super Turbo. 4.Other info ============ This game is little bit lame, take into account I am not experienced 8-bit Atari programmer. The game uses the following "techniques" : ANTIC display list programming,Player Missille graphics, VBI,DLI. Audio is controlled by Raster Music Tracker (RMT) playback routine. The game is based on game "Lost miner" (for IBM/PC) and "Lost miner" is based on "Super Miner" (for ATARI by Byte nibbler). So this is not a port or a backport, but circleport :-) 5.Other Atari related software by baktra ======================================== * mmSAP - comfortable SAP player for GNU/Linux * TURGEN SYSTEM 4 - Data transfer utility PC/SUN --> ATARI 6.Contact information ===================== email : [email protected] Website: www.baktra.wz.cz/index.html (for atarians from former Czechoslovakia) www.baktra.wz.cz/english.html (for other atarians) 7.Copying ========= This game is released under GNU LGPL. The tools minilinker and lowerbit are public domain This game comes to you from Czech Republic.
