The idea of the game is that you are a tank on enemy grounds trying to prevent the launch of missiles that will basically destroy the world.

The main goal of the game is to a) Get access to the launch code, and b) reach the missile silo to enter the code and stop the missiles from launching. The code is made up of four hexadecimal digits (0-9, and A-F).

In this game, the object for each level is to reach the opposite end of the level. For the first 5 levels, once you make contact with the Depo you will receive a random position of the code. It is possible to get the same position more than once. On the sixth level, once you reach the missile, you must enter the code as quickly as possible using the joystick, and press the button to see if it is accepted. If it is, you have saved the day, and the game begins on a harder level. If you don’t enter the correct code before the impact….

Release notes:

Thanks!

Ok, I added the ‘Bonus Tank every 30,000 points’. BUT – you *can* make it to the end of each level on the fuel you have, I’ve done it even on the Advanced level. (I need to leave some of the challenge there)
You are correct; I am not using POKEY but the standard TIA sounds. Trying to avoid the need of a special board.

Thanks for the suggestions!

ALSO – I have added back the ability to scroll backwards. Please let me know – does it add to gameplay? Take away from it? Should I leave it?
Please note, any enemy that you may have passed without killing will *not* be there if you scroll backward.

THANKS!
Bob

SQLDisplay is a program that can load SQL dumps and display them on the DS. Included is the ability to load multiple tables and filter down based on the text of one or more columns. Since everything visual is gathered from the database it should be compatible with just about any SQL dump you throw at it.
