A game for the Unexpanded Vic 20, keyboard controlled. All BASIC.
Again, insomnia attacked last night. I decided to edit my last game, Ten Ten. After that, I was still not sleepy. I decided to make another game as fast as I could. Here's the idea:
I started to think about how every game I've made recently seems to remind someone of another game. I'm sick of it! It seems like every idea is taken. It reminds me of that South Park episode, "Simpsons Already Did It"!
So I put all of energy into developing a completely new concept in game play. Here it is -- a completely original game! Unlike any other ever made. It's a card game. I call it "Un" based on the french word for one. The idea is actually quite simple:
Gameplay:
In this completely original card game, the object is to be the first player to rid yourself of all the cards in your hand before your opponents do so.
Each player is dealt 7 cards with the remaining ones placed face down to form a DRAW pile. The top card of the DRAW pile is turned over to begin a DISCARD pile.
The first player has to match the card in the DISCARD pile either by number, color or word. For example, if the card is a red 7, player must throw down a red card or any color 7. Or the player can throw down a Wild Card. If the player doesn't have anything to match, he must pick a card from the DRAW pile.
Once a player has no cards left, the game is over.
Draw Two Cards - When this card is played, the next person to play must draw 2 cards and forfeit his turn.
Reverse Card - Simply reverse direction of play. Play left becomes play right, and vice versa.
Skip Card - The next player to play loses his turn and is "skipped." Mighty clever.
Wild Card - This card can be played on any card. The person playing the card calls any color to continue play, including the one presently being played if desired. A Wild card can be played even if the player has another playable card in his hand.
I made this game super fast; however, it could be one of the sloppiest examples of programming I have ever offered you guys. Apparently, the "music" only sounds good when one is sleep deprived at 4am.
