2020年11月14日 · The scenario where the player splits the two Qix could be detected by running the above scanning algorithm for the first Qix, and then starting it for the second but stopping as soon as code encounters a pixel on the old boundary. If that pixel is on the path surrounding the first Qix, both are surrounded by that path. Otherwise, the Qix were ...

2020年6月18日 · With Qix, you went to the next level as soon as you claimed more than half of the play space. You got points proportional to the claimed area, so a big part of advanced game play was building out narrow walls, and then luring the Qix into a confined space that you could quickly close off, thereby claiming a much larger than 50% portion with a single stroke.

2017年5月28日 · In most applications a constrained flood fill isn't greatly useful. It'd be OK for something like a drawing program but not so much for a realtime game e.g. Qix. For something like a graphical adventure that does procedurally generated pics, it'd be OK since you'd obviously test and correct any anomolies during development.

2020年5月25日 · For example, some cartridges may include a RAM which has one of the address wires open-circuited (I think Qix did that with A1). This effectively creates pairs of addresses, two apart, such that reading either address of a pair will yield the last byte of data that was written to either address of the pair.

Another World is a classical game originally for Amiga and Atari ST and subsequently reimplemented for many retro and modern platforms. As described by Fabien Sanglard the game is implemented in by...

2021年2月27日 · Around the year 1990, I played the game Empire on a VAX/VMS system. It was a turn-based, text-based-map wargame that later inspired Civilization and Xconq. What was particularly memorable about this

2019年4月23日 · This approach would be workable for a game like Qix, which doesn't update very much content every frame, but unworkable for Elite, where each animation frame is drawn "from scratch". European (PAL) NES consoles only allow graphics memory to be accessed during about 20% of each frame time.
