Pimp up your Basic skills ! BASIC Tenliner Competition 2016 !
 

Allways wanted to code something cool in about ten basic lines ?

Here´s your chance :D

Just for the fun of it I started to resurrect my old Amstrad yesterdays but hey, seems I forgotten a lot about basic since those days :shocked

Ooh, awesome! No idea what the standard would be like, but I might fire up my old Atari 800XL and see what I can remember of Atari BASIC...

you can look at last years competition results at the website ... I tried some, great stuff :)

I enquired about this, as my interpreter can do some pretty hot stuff in 10 lines. But they disqualified it because it runs on a PC.

It's a proper line-numbered BASIC too, the rotters.

That´s because everyone deserve the same chance and therefor use only old 8Bit Basic derivates ;)

I´m allready stuck a bit with my entry, build the playfield in 3 basic lines including scores and so on but detection routine is still way too big :D :D

Fantastic entries for last year's competition... There's no preview of it, but I really laughed at the name of one of the entries - "Flappy Dot" :D

Time to crank up the Atari methinks!

:great:great:great
