TI-Chess Team and a Slew of Releases
Posted by Nick on 15 July 2000, 02:22 GMT

TI-Minesweeper v1.00Choice. Absolutely choice. Thomas Nussbaumer sent me a letter via carrier pigeon recently to inform me of not one, not three, not seventeen, but TWO simultaneous game releases by the TI-Chess Team.

TI-Minesweeper v1.00, for the 89 and the 92 Plus (see the delicious screenshot up there), features absolutely mad grayscale and incredibly straightforward gameplay. It seems to be almost exactly like the version on Windows. Now, you can take the greatness of Minesweeper with you. :)

Furthermore, TI-Con45 v1.01 also exists for the 89 and the 92 Plus. This is an (equally high-quality) clone of Connect Four. Not that connect4, I'm talking about the game! (har har har) At any rate, it's very good. I'm not one to judge, because I really do stink at Connect Four, but it looks like someone who would be skilled at Connect 4 would enjoy... okay, I'm rambling again.

Keep your eyes and ears (and other sensory organs) open for a new version of TI-Chess in the coming weeks from these people as well. Fantastically amazing!

Yeah, I always have problems when i try to paint C code... maybe im using the wrong brush. anyways, this is my first post. You are lucky to have been graced with my presence. Don't like to gloat, but:

3 - Physics B
3 - Spanish

Oh wait, its only gloating if you do well, right? anywho... im working on Tennis for ion (83/83+ for those who dont know, but should anyway so i dont have to waste my precious time writing run-on sentences, or run-on comments like these/this (not sure)). It should be very similar to the gameboy "Tennis" that weve all grown to love and i plan to release the 1 player mode with AI as soon as its finished (maybe end of august) and the 2 player version about a month or 2 after. Relating to the other topic, I have a mac (very old model circa '94) which has made programming very difficult, but i just put in an order for a souped-up ABS DVD-1 (anyone who has any info on the company and its products - please let me know if i made a big mistake and just blew 2500 bucks) and when it arrives ill be programming nonstop... i promise, well maybe ill take occasional breaks to sleep, empty my bladder, read 2600 magazine.. etc, but you all (y'all) better keep lookin for my game. it might be good, you never know.

laterz,
