Technique uses LPrint on attribute zone to rapidly change colors on the screen. The bitmap remains unaltered all the time. The code has only one Print instruction, used to update the score.

It has in-game music, playing one beep note every 16 frames.

Speed and difficulty increase every 10 seconds and as score gets higher and higher.

Hola, me gusta mucho tu juego - gracias por compartirlo y al código fuente. ¿Tienes el código en un fichero de texto simple o .bas en vez de PDF ? Muchas gracias.

Hola! En el archivo .tap puedes ver el codigo fuente! pulsa Break (Shift+Space) para detener la ejecucion y haz LIST

Si quieres el .bas, te lo envio igualmente

Muy agradecido, abrazo!

Looks nice, is there an online playable version? If so, i'd like to share it on my game page.

Play it on 48kb mode only!!!!

Tried it in several browsers on my Mac, but couldn't get it to run. Is there a sequence i need to follow or something?

select Machine 48Kb. Then type in LOAD ""


ANOTHER EMULATOR ONLINE:


https://zxspectrum.xyz/

Select 48Kb machine, then

Search for LPRINT RUNAWAY and click on the name.

Got it started, finally, but none of the keyboard keys gave a response. My G&W fans like to be able to play after the emulator started. This is way too much effort to even get it running. If you can produce a click and play version, let me know, but like it is now, i can't put it on my game page, sorry.

Good game. I also added it to my October's ZX Spectrum games video.

I really enjoyed playing this game! :)


Nice game!
