Walls

Bricks

This program will just fit into a 16K Spectrum and works on


the 48K Spectrum as well. The object of the game is to


knock all the brocks out of a wall at the top while trying


to protect a row of bricks at the bottom. A bonus score of


100 is added after each 1,000 scored. The game is over


after all the bottom row of bricks have been knocked out.


If all the top bricks are knocked out they are replaced,


leaving the bottom row as it is. 10 points are awarded for


each brick at the top, but no score is given for a brick on


the bottom which is knocked out.


On running the game there will be a long pause while the


machine code is poked and the message


PLEASE WAIT A MOMENT


will appear, followed by a prompt


SKILL LEVEL (1-4)?


Level 1 is the easiest and level 4 the hardest. Only


integers are accepted. To move the bat:


1 - Slow ball speed left.


5 - Slow right.


1 and 2 together - Fast - two times the ball speed - left.


4 and 5 together - Fast right.
