New game: Earthraid

[LCD]

And you did it in ZX BASIC??? hock:
Awesome!

Yes, it is done in ZX BASIC. The Water-Animation is slower than on C64, but C64 has a character-based display where if you change a font character, it is instantly updated on the entire screen. Spectrum has a bitmapped display, so the updates must be written everytime to all animated cells. But it the game is still excellently playable. Surely I could do it faster, but I think, the current speed is fully okay for a compiled ZX BASIC program and will cause some "Wow's!" on WOS . The Grow of Molusks (The invaders) is also slower than on C64, but this is a turn-based game.
I hope to get the music within 1 week.
