New Game: LIQUIDATOR
Posted: Tue Dec 19, 2023 2:07 pm
Title: LIQUIDATOR
Platform: Commodore VIC-20 without Memory Expansion (tested only on XVIC)
Media: PRG (drag and drop into XVIC window)
Video: PAL/NTSC
Interface: Player 1: Joystick / Player 2: Keyboard (A,D,W,X)
Software type: Logic Game written in Assembler
Written by: LOFI_CODER
Download: ( contains Version 1.0.1 Level 8 BUGFIX )
The aim of the game is to prevent a meltdown in a nuclear reactor.
As the liquidator, you have to master this almost impossible task to prevent the catastrophe:
Move the blocks into the hot zone/red fields to seal the leak.
There are a total of 10 levels (reactor leaks) for 1 to 2 players. You can choose the starting level at the beginning.
You have 4 minutes per level before a meltdown occurs.
With 2 players, they do not act as opponents, but try to seal the reactor leak together.
You can push the blocks but not pull them. It can therefore happen that you move a block in such an unfortunate way that you can no longer use it. Press 'P' when you want to restart a level.
The difficulty of the levels is very high right from the start and it is advisable to take notes with pen and paper.
Developers note:
The numbering of the blocks has no special meaning. If you play the game with 2 players, you can name the blocks more easily using the numbers.
You can also play the game without a joystick. To do this, you have to configure the "keyset joystick" in XVIC (e.g. to be able to select the level and start the game at the beginning). I recommend: J, L, I, M and Space for Fire. Don't use W,A,D,X.
Due to the self-imposed requirements to realize the game without memory expansion (3583 bytes must be enough ...), there is unfortunately only a very rudimentary startscreen, no highscore and no end sequence. I promise to do better for the next game!
