You got it. Damn. Once the larger screen shot was shown, I knew it. Ironically that game was responsible for me "programming"... I remember my friend Chuck had a computer and we played it on there. I had previously "broken" into the code of one of the text adventure games her had (that began with being at a pyramid, wish I could remember the name). But I wanted to do something like the boxing game, so I basically wrote a program in BASIC that did a loop.dotkel50 wrote:Sierra Championship Boxing
10 PRINT "You get hit in the face for 5 damage."
20 PRINT "You miss!"
30 PRINT "He swings, you dodge, you manage to hit him for 3 Damage!"
40 GOTO 10
(Obviously much more than just those three lines!)
And you'd press "Control Break" to see what was at the top.
And you had character sheets and everything that were rolled with six sided dice.
I later "advanced" it by using LOCATE command where it would randomly roll your character's health and keep it on line 25, while the rest of the screen scrolled, and you pressed ENTER to make whatever was going to happen appear in the middle with a CLS command and LOCATE 15,2,0: PRINT "Whatever"...
LOL. Those were the days.
Eventually that would all lead me to doing a "text adventure game based on Sierra Adventure games" called Final Soul, which I originally uploaded back when I was using AOL many eons ago, and it got quite a bit of downloads! Even has a Mobeygames link here
I don't know if I did that or what (I don't know off hand how to submit games to MobeyGames, but there's probably a form somewhere).Anyway, nice one on the Sierra Championship Boxing.
