I Wrote This Game in Pure Z80 Assembly Code

from NCOT Technology · host juytre

#rc2014 #game #programming I decided to improve my Z80 assembly skills by writing a game entirely from nothing for the RC2014 Z80 computer. I used SJASMPlus to compile the code, and it turned out quite nice. It\'s based on a BASIC type-in game I found in an old book called \"The Rainbow Book of Basic Programs\" Support Me: https://ko-fi.com/ncot_tech Github Link for code: https://github.com/ncot-tech/z80-zombies Website Link: https://ncot.uk/z80-homebrew-computer/zombies-a-game-written-in-z80/ Video Timings ============ 0:00 - Intro 1:00 - Game Demo 3:47 - Reverse-engineering BASIC 7:54 - Interesting algorithm 10:14 - Graphics output 11:58 - Reliable user input 14:00 - Working out which input 14:58 - Zombie AI 16:54 - Code review 21:25 - Development Environment 22:48 - Learn Assembly! 24:18 - Outro
