IN this colourful and compulsive game you have to guide Smiley round a maze picking up coloured buttons that are scattered about. The buttons belong to the Grumpies, who take exception to you pinching them from under their nose and chase you round the maze, trying to catch you. If you collect all the buttons in the maze it is redrawn and the gamti starts all over again, except that vou and the Grumpies move a little faster. Yes, it's an Amstrad version of the old favourite - no collection is complete without it! There is a bonus which decreases with time, three lives and a keyboard or joystick option. The program is fully structured with no GOTOs to confuse you. It is controlled by calling the various subroutines from lines 40 to 210 to print the instructions, draw the maze and move the characters Each subroutine has been given a title in a REM statement at the start of it so you know where to look if It does not work first time tit's nearly impossible to type in a program without making at least one mistake). |
