|
1997-06-04 01:38:15 +00:00
|
|
|
XBL is an interactive game under X11 (color or black&white) and UN*X.
|
|
|
|
|
XBL is a good training tool to understand 3D rotations and 3D vision.
|
|
|
|
|
You need reflex and memory (human).
|
|
|
|
|
XBL implements 6 different ways to perform animation under X11!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The game world is a 3D discrete space.
|
|
|
|
|
- The player has a top view of this discrete space.
|
|
|
|
|
- The game throws blocks made of cubes (one to five cubes).
|
|
|
|
|
- A block falls inside the discrete space, and stops when hitting the
|

|
|
|
floor or another block.
|

|
|
|
- If a discrete space level is full, it is destroyed.
|
|
|
|
|
- Another block appears (only one moving block at a time).
|

|
|
|
- Player can move or rotate blocks (perfect real time if you have a fast host).

|
|
The goal is to play as long as possible.
