Manual

Minesweeper v1.1

My entry into the sms power 2014 coding competition.

This is my take on the classic computer game Minesweeper for the sega master system.

Controls:

Button 1 - uncover a tile Button 2 - mark a tile with either a flag or a question mark Pause - toggle music

The aim of the game is to find all the bomb tiles by uncovering non-bomb tiles on the board. If you accidentally uncover a bomb then you lose. The number on the uncovered tiles tell you how many bombs surround the tile. You can select from three different boardsizes.

Code + gfx: Eric Fry (efry) Music: Niloct

Software used:

Grafx2 Gimp Bmp2tile Mod2PSG WLA-DX Vim

Tools:

Master everdrive USB (for testing on my master system 2)

Utils:

I've included my unix usb-loader code for the master everdrive. I needed this as I develop on Mac OS X and the everdrive only comes with windows drivers. :(

I've also included my vim syntax highligting file. It's based on Maxim's ConTEXT highlighter.

Todo:

Win / Lose animations + bomb sfx. Key repeat.
