Tenliner Challenge - #4 Moon Rescue

Yet another entry for our Tenliner challenge joins the growing bunch of programs using only ten lines of BASIC. This time it's Moon Rescue by Oscar Centelles (a.k.a. zanac), which is his first contest program ever. Here, you'll have to use the cursor keys to adjust your space's shuttles throttle in order to navigate it through dangerous lunar caverns. The game can run on an MSX1 but it needs the speed of a TurboR for normal playing.

Can you create a game or a handy tool within 10 lines of basic with or without a media file? Don't wait too long. The challenge closes December 17th.

To use the joystick, beginning of line 40 can be changed this way :

D=STICK(0)ORSTICK(1)

Never knew you could that much in 10 lines. Great contest.

So Huey, where's your entry? I'm interested in what you could make, especially with some cool graphics of yours in the media file!

So, we have four games already. Great, but let us remind you that demos (or demo'esque effects) and tools are just as welcome, as far as we are concerned! Just think about the type of oneliners that was published in paper mags from the 80's.

Well I did wanted to try. But I discovered that my BASIC knowledge is almost zero after all these years.
