Game
Basic Pascal

1 year ago

Recall from memory

So, I don’t write anything new about the development. So, I have already made two games written in programming language Free Pascal. It is two more game in my game cycle “Pond”.

It is some games about theme of water and kind fish and frogs, which lives there. So, in maximum plan I have 4 games in idea in this cycle. So, 2 games are already made. So, I will publish them at my website, of course. And upload them to Itchio and Gamejolt in terms of Basic Pascal pack.

So, I want to update memory. I have Basic Pascal pack. So, each game separately you can see at my website. And also, to download all basic pascal games with one pack. So, it is right now something about 4 games. I don’t remember certain number.

I say it at first, that I am sure, that there is genius who can make even shooters from first look with basic. With including modern libraries like SDL. But I am not one of them. And I am making game for Basic and Pascal using resources of the language itself. So, in my case, there are some features. It, as a rule, not very dynamical games. And screen can flash. For example. So, it is a retro. As it goes. So, a true retro. I have used two languages now. It is Free Pascal and QBasic 64. They give you ability to program for modern systems, but in retro style.

It is games with not big resolution of screen. 320 x 240 or 800 x 600.

With screen feature. Flashing screen. Slow dynamical of game process.

You don’t need to push all the keyboards buttons at once. Press one button – and wait for game reaction

And now it is a games without sound and music.

It is a certain games written using resources of languages Free Pascal And QBasic64. In retro theme. It is just like it can be at 386 and 486 processors. But, of course, selected language, are ok with Windows 8 and 10 for all modern systems. It is absolutely modern releases. About terms of compatibility. But, at the same time, they are written in retro style just like for 386 and 486.

Personally me, I like a lot languages Pascal and Basic. They are like about a real things, about a deal. So, I don’t like a lot C Sharp, because it has a lots of things inside, too many. C++ it is also about a certain things, but very complicated. So, I am not a fan of languages with tons of everything. So, I think it is about C Sharp.

Saying about all of these, Pascal and Basic are very interesting programming languages. You can write for example main program. And next – functions and procedures. All of these you call in main program. Creating a variables. So, I am catched with this style of programming, I like it. So, that’s why I don’t understand, when someone tells you that it is old and wrong. It is a very good programming  languages. In idea to learn a logical mind. And it is a very good thing to learn for anyone on the planet. So, for reptiloids or humanoids.

All of my games have these features of the language. Color schemes, way to draw screen. And it adds retro.

Saying more, I am interesting to check as retro wave, operating system – Free Dos. It is aim for retro, and it has a modern realization at the same time. But it is another kind of question.

So, only yesterday I finished developing second game in cycle Pond. In terms of Basic Pascal development. And that’s why I write these theme for today. So, about these two games i do a posts later!

Today, I want to point at two things. It is Basic and Pascal. And my developments for Basic and pascal. So, it is not very entertaining text. Yesterday I dig the code. And I don’t achieve result at first attempt.
