Arcade Volleyball
Post Posted: Tue Apr 20, 2021 6:45 am
Hi!

Anyone familiar with the game Arcade Volleyball? I remember playing the DOS version a lot many years ago...

Anyway, I recently learned that the C source code for the Amiga version of Arcade Volleyball was available, and I immediately thought, why not port this game to the SMS? It should be a nice little week-end project! (and it was!)

This game was inspired by Pong so I added a personal touch: Sega HPD-200 Paddle support. But even with standard controllers, it's a lot of fun, especially when played between friends!

I used devkitSMS and the port was fairly straightforward, but I wrote a few paragraphs about the process on my website. The game can also be downloaded from this page:

The source code is on GitHub: https://github.com/raphnet/arcadevolleyball

I played the MS-DOS version a lot on my 80386 three decades ago. On a related note, writing "three decades ago" made me feel even older.

Here's a video of your version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FrejHK1ZP4A (yes, I used savestates to keep it shorter).
