Title: pure assembly game
Post by: cj123 on July 27, 2005, 03:38:56 AM
I looked up this game that was in pure assembly, it was very similar to StarCraft and fully 3d. The site claimed that the game was over 200,000 lines of code in pure assembly, and they had a demo up for download. I accidentally deleted the game and now I can't remember where I found that game. If someone happens to know where I could find this game, I would be very grateful. Also, I apoligize in advance if I am posting in the wrong forum. Thank you!

Maybe you mean Hostile Encounter but it is not fully 3D, just 2D ...
The intro screen planets are 3D realtime raytraced ;)

Last time i have checked there are more than 300,000 lines of pure win32 assembler code...

The very last game to be written entirely in Assembler to my knowledge was Elite Frontier. It's a 3D space ship game that was frustraitingly realistic (Ie. you continuously accelerate for half the journey and then have to begin to deccelerate for the other half of the journey and if you stuff that up by the time you've stopped moving you're further away from the destination than where you started, and possibly out of fuel). Any way it truely rocked for it's time. I think it's free now.

No it's not, only the shareware version is available legally and Braben is very picky about his rights regarding this matter (less about Ian Bell's ones, tho).

Remember: A good game is a finished game.
