How to code in Blitz Basic for OCS?
Hi EAB people, as some of you already know, I made a demo with my friends on Coppersky (Nippon Taste Demo).
Long time ago(more than 23 years), I made a ship controled with joystick on Amos, the ship only fires one bulet at a time and has limits on the screen. But thats all. I code some slideshow on MSX Basic (very easy). I want to start making a small game on Amiga, please, if someone of you can help me, I want to code a PONG on OCS for START. I am a very Amiga entusiastic since late 80s, is like a dream to make my own games. What Blitz Basic I need to code for OCS Amiga? I will install and then I will continue asking you Thank you in advance. Last edited by Toni Galvez; 07 May 2015 at 08:47. |

If you need help with Blitz Basic, try posting in Coders.Language. Blitz Basic 2.1 was the last official version released AFAIK, and it will run on any Amiga. You can find downloads on the EAB file server:

I don't really know how to code in Blitz 2 (although it's something I've wanted to do). Anyhow here are some links that may help you get started.
Manual - http://kodu.ut.ee/~isotamm/PKeeled/T...Manual-ENG.pdf User Guide - https://computerarchive.org/files/co...0Guide-ENG.pdf Hope that helps. |

IIRC Amos was more used than Blitz back then so there's certainly more Amos knowledge out there.
Since there an http://amiblitz3.sourceforge.net/ look for Amiblitz at EAB to find people using it. Kamelito |

Somebody passed me the link to the pdf of the Blitz paper handbooks, hoping to help. By the way follow the thread where am trying with the help of Cylon (actually he is doing the most of work am still too rookie), to make a Blitz PC version of Tetris run: i guess is helpful as well. |

Its Manual is a pretty good starting point. |
