Tic Tac Toe Rings
« on: March 20, 2020, 02:19:22 am »
Here's another instance of me not being able to casually play a mobile game. I recently found the game Rings by a studio called Gamezaur. This is my attempt at recreating it.

I won't elaborate on the gameplay here. Keep the concept of "tic tac toe" in mind - except it's single-player mode - and you should master it in no time.

Latest version always available at https://github.com/FellippeHeitor/TicTacToeRing

edit: too much code inside the codebox was slowing down loading the forum, here's a direct link to the code (no extra files needed in this version): https://raw.githubusercontent.com/FellippeHeitor/TicTacToeRing/master/tictactoering.bas

Mesmerize with just trying to discover the scoring and had expected there to be only 3 basic color rings and had expected the game would stop at some point. I may give up solitaire for this game. Thanks for same.

Masterful! Still working out the points system for combos but way more interesting than Tic-tac-toe. :)

@bplus Thanks a lot, man!

About points, you score 1 point for each ring you clear. If you have *just* scored a match, the immediate next one will have its points doubled; if you keep getting lucky, then it'll be tripled, then quadrupled... you get it.

Ah! Your demo just showed that if you just get 3 of same color in row (doesn't have to be same size) that clears them with points added to score.

Is there a perfect game score? Or should we track our highest score?

Update: Oh it keeps multiplying by higher numbers if lucky, OK.

Yeah, this is mostly by high score. The more careful you are the farther in the game you get, but if you are lucky, this can run indefinitely.

Again, credit where it's due. Here's the original game I'm cloning:

Ah! now I see you are tracking multiplier but no fireworks? ;-))

Man, I got past 100 and board almost cleared, this can be a great eater of time!

Another great example of what can be done with QB64. Fun game too!
