Balloon Caves

BALLOON CAVES This is a classic hot air balloon game, a category of game that was very popular in the early days of C64, especially Balloon Rescue, a game written in BASIC, but very playable. A hot air balloon sprite was also inside the original C64 user's manual, as anyone of C64 users can remember. I decided to propose a balloon game for the cassette 50 competition, because I believe it is on topic with the competition. Gameplay The aim of the game is to collect all the 10 coins on the screen that will appear on the map one after another. There are 3 maps on the game with increasing difficulty. When you clear the first 3 levels, the game starts over from the first map adding some wind effects on the balloon that will further increase the difficulty. Controls Put the joystick in port #2 Fire - make the balloon go upLeft - move balloon to leftRight - move balloon to right The game was written in Assembly using Kick Assembler and Visual Studio Code. I also used some tools like Charpad and Spritepad.
