Games programming

Deskripsi

Countless articles in countless computer magazines have presented game listings, and proffered advice on how to implement programs for specific games. With few exceptions, and quite understandably, these are small scale and fairly trivial exercises in BASIC program- ming. The time is ripe for owners of home computers to raise their sights. This is a book for those who enjoy programming and playing computer games, but who yearn to do more than shoot down VDU 'sprites' and flee through mazes pursued by alien blobs or what- ever. The accent is on games with some intellectual content rather than games which exhaust memory with program and data for displaying pretty pictures - though it is readily admitted that good graphics enhance any game.
