Here is the code:



This is my first game ever.In the game, you are a sphere. The object of the game is to dodge all of the cubes as you fall at a constant rate. If you touch one, you will lose one life and restart the current wave of cubes. This will also happen if you touch one of the boundry walls. The game will pause if you touch a cube or a boundry wall and wait until you press a key to restart the wave. Every 2500 points you will gain an extra life. There is no media, just copy and paste!

Controls:
Left Key - Move to the left
Right Key - Move to the right
Enter Key - Pause the game - Press any other key to unpause

There are a few errors, the "you lost a life" text and the "game over" text don't appear at the right time. Also, the collision is a little off, but I can't seem to get it perfect. Could someone experienced help me with these? Thanks.

Also, please post your opinions of the game and your high score, thanks! (Btw, this is DBPro, not sure if it works in DBC)

Thanks for modifying it! Btw, new version. Your speed now increases as well as the number of cubes to dodge.

I think this will work with both versions:

I'd tell you my high score but the program just shut down as soon as I died. It was about 5000 on wave 6.

Once I was but the learner,
now, I am the Master.

Sorry about the abrupt ending, I fixed it so that it will display your score then wait until you press escape to exit the game. Thanks for responding everyone. Icfcfan, I'll take that as a compliment . Glad you liked it Red_eye.

Also added the ability to restart the game.Code:

Thought of something You can now customly color your sphere, yay! Yeah, I was pretty bored... (Also why I made the sentence generator )



I can still squeeze some more stuff in though, if any body has any suggestions.

Nice to see I'm not the only one who likes to evolve his 20 liners and add new features. Great game. Isn't that more than 5 commands in the last line though?

Thanks, glad you liked it. The rules have now rather subtly been changed to 25 commands per line.

I could make most of my games in 500 commands, that's just a bit ridiculous these new rules. I feel that to be extremely stupid that you can just add so many features to a 20-line game. There's no more challenge.
