hey everyone...

I'm new to this site and i started trying to program stuff onto my TI 83 plus calc....

I've created a couple games like menu games.... and i also created a game where you move around a matrix made level(8 by 16) and collect stars...

But i can only make my guy look like a character on the calc like X, 0, I or something like that.... How do i draw a character or design my own???

Also how do i create a level thats more realistic then a matrix made one..and how do i make it so when you reach the edge of the screen it would scroll over and you could go even further??

Last how do i make Bad guys move and attack and stuff like that?????

I'd really appreciate if anyone could help me out with these things !!!

Its a calculatetor not a Gameboy Advance.:crazy:

You can get very far with a computer link and the right software but what you all what there is close to impossable.

i also created a game where you move around a matrix made level(8 by 16) and collect stars...

I have made some thing like that too :D but the progam was lagging like hell:-/ I am working on a new and better one at the monent.

Edit: Oh and welcome to the forums ;)

you can use c++ I believe and then compile and send it to the calc, but maybe that's jsut for the 86... no it's probably for both.

I've made many games that use matrices, but none that scroll.
