#free pascal

It is so great, when for a positive, everything is funny and simple! And everything is so easy to do for you, feel like - you can do everything! So, this is a game about fishing. And by the way, it is very simple. For free time and positive.

And you have in your hands a fishing rod. And you can move it along the screen. Count this as a cursor. Reference point - it is float, bobber. And you catch fish. And next release it! This is magical game!

You need to move with arrows left, right, up and down. For adjustment. So, this way you move with 1 pixel. This is so slowly move.

And, to fast move as with a shooters games – w, s, a, d. And, this way, you move faster. Count that you almost fly by screen.

Catch, action key - this is space.

Game is not tricky. And with special way it is made with simple way. I plan this game for a long time. And now I gather knowledge to make it! Game is programming with programming language Free Pascal. With use module Graph. So, this means graphics in a window.

Look, there are going a waves at the water. Circles at the water. Look! They are growing! And next -disappear! There is fish there! Point bobber at the center of this circles. Center – it is smallest circle. Approximately it is there. Plus minus small range. And press space. Wow! Fish score raises!!!

At the left, by the way, it is timer. And it goes time measure there! Game has two parameters. Fish score. And timer. Time makes measure how long fishing is going. As you catch everything. It is shown ending screen! And again, to the main menu!

And it is hard to believe. But this game I want to make for a long time. And now my programming skills gives me these abilities. So certain this way I see everything with my imagination. And now – this is a result. Blue screen. Little circles at the water. And fishing rod, schematical. And your simple move fishing rod by screen. And press space. Thats all! So, this is idea of maximum simple game. And again, I return to programming language Free Pascal.

Someplace, it is simple, game for relax. And free time. I plan it at the start as not hard game. And not to give a troubles to a player. And you can simply play one or two times. Blue screen. And circles at the water. Such meditation and relaxation. Free time! And I as countryside fan for myself, weekender. And I know how good it is at the countryside during summer with weekend! Grass and garden. And here I suggest a virtual fishing. With retro style. Maybe, to remember MS DOS. And something simple.

Basic Pascal version 1.19 "Frozen" – most newest version. In this version there are 8 new games! Free Linear Space, Vi Aliens, B Ball, BC Row, Near the Shore, Frozen Arctic Station, Basic Maze, BufColor. And even more retro games! It is a pack of retro games with modern versions of Basic and Pascal.

It is now in development new version Basic Pascal pack games. This game will be included in a new version.

So, this year, I, already, complete lesson series by Radovan86 about Turbo Pascal 7.0. So, with Free Pascal I repeat all of these. And, with School Freeware lesson series about Free Pascal with format of Lazarus programming. To series are there. This is console application. And Lazarus window application.

So, this year, about its first half, or even more. It was with a sigh of Pascal. So, I remember, that as a schoolboy and a student I was introduced to this thing.  With a format of Turbo Pascal 7.0. So, this year, I decide to complete lesson series to fix this knowledge. This is now theme Free Pascal. And Lazarus. So, it was correspondently before -Turbo Pascal 7.0 and Delphi 7. Two sevens, such a lucky combination.

And this is a cool theme – School Freeware. There are lots of lessons there. About different themes. There, I learn Lazarus programming. It is, so, nice, when you can learn! To learn computers. I think lots of people dream about this. So, I am doing exactly these things right now! With a school – Freeware School. Someone has a creative attitude to the title of his video channel. School with version Freeware. I, by the way, does not know for sure what word Freeware means. But, is exciting idea about its title! I remember, that videogames, there were shareware and freeware. Well, for MS DOS.

It is so nice to go back to familiar things. Pascal. And Delphi. These were happy my little days when I was schoolboy and student. And there were not a lot of these days. But they were. And I remember them! So, I go back again to them. There, it were a starting lessons. And it passed lots of time. So, I need again to update knowledge.

By the way, with the School Freeware you, also, can learn some other things. Basic. As Qb64. Or C to learn a while. I learn Basic there. And, again, I visit School Freeware. And, this case about Pascal and Delphi. Whole block I get. To learn - it is, so, funny and engaging!

I dream for a long time to get knowledge about computers. To learn some programming. And, this year, I learn something about Pascal. And Delphi. At this base level from start to the end. Anyway, this is achievement! I walk to school not losing time and have learn something, as I can say!

So, we have a virtual fishing rod. And we catch a water splash. And this is a computer program. With programming language Free Pascal. And there are here a settings. Wait a little, before to run for a fish. We need to set the thing! Good set, good setup is valuable in any deal we have.

As idea, I have already shown the game with the last record in my diary. But this time everything is the same. Half of the development time takes for a settings. Everything is the same. But with settings. Maybe they are not necessary. So as a default there are some setup - it is more or less arcade set of parameters. And everything is good.

But, anyway. I give a player chance to setup all the parameters by himself. It is difficult to understand what parameter means what. So, this is my point to enter. To give a description about parameters.

Time limit. This is simple. You are playing during this time. Duration for the game session. It can be equal to zero. This is about no limit about time. And it is measure with minutes. So, like 5 minutes, for example. 40 minutes.

Fish limit. This is also simple. You need to catch certain amount of fish. To complete a game! For example catch 10 fish! It is measure with fish. If value is equal to zero, to there is no limit by this parameter.

It is required that one of these parameters need to be not zero. So, this way game works. This is determine time for play and result.

Next are goes parameters with more accurate settings. You can not to touch them.

Amount of fish at the screen. How a lot of splashes it can be at the same time. At the screen, For example 3. This means there are different splashes at the water with the different parts of the screen.

Pause interval. This is about how long computer waits for sure before go to the question. Do it is good to create at the screen new splash. For example, 2 seconds. This means. So, splash is gone. And again, computer with start to think – to do splash or not, certainly after 2 seconds. With seconds.

Percent to appear. This is a percent to appear for a new splash after the pause. For example, 50 percent. You wait 2 seconds this is a pause and computer with accuracy 50 percent gives or not give new splash. It is measure with percent.

Next interval. This is with seconds. So, pause is gone. Drop a percent. We get answer - not generate. And computer next count this interval every time. for example, 1 second. And now wait long for example start pause with 2 seconds. And drop a cube, and not generation as result. And now with the duration of this interval. For example, every second.

This means. For example. So, we setup. Wait 10 seconds after splash. It waits. We set percent. For example 50. 10 seconds ends. And we ask. Is a splash or not splash with this percent. Lets say no. And so computer start every time to count this certain interval. For example, 3 seconds. And every time, wait for 3 seconds to pass and drop cube again. And so, until splash will not appear.

Number of circles. This is with circles. Amount of circles which will to appear. Three circles at the water. Or five for example. As a splashes. While they exists, you can catch a fish.

Duration of a circle. With seconds. Hog long it has a duration. And next time to appear next one. For example, 2 seconds circle to stand. And next to appear a new one. And next again two seconds. And one more. Until it reaches limit of circles. So, this is all. Everything to disappear.

This is a mechanics for this fishing works! Udochka – this is a whole process. And here you see how it is setup. Someone will say of course that all of these – is just some kind of a joke!

Main idea of the game - it is to jump over the holes. Press space – and it is a jumping. And you are on the other island. And it is everything about this game. Control is using one space. Only jumping. Game is written in programming language Free Pascal. And this is my first experience at this programming language.

And it was a problem. I check all the code. Check collisions. Calculations for logics. Everything was all right. In a main look, it is all right code. Problem was in a way of calculations for time ticks. Timing. Timing about to appear new element on the map, timing of move elements to the left. And from other hand – when it will be a reaction to this from player. And what time – to calculate – is jump good. As I get it.

A true thing, I still don’t get it absolutely. Why it was like this. Logics are all right. So, deal is in timings. They are different for different logic. In a who goes first, and who is next by logic. I want to put error for some feature of Pascal. But – it is looks like – I make error. And I was searching for a long time for this.

And - it is a tale about that it is very tricky in the code. And I fix it. Maybe. Maybe. It should work now. Jumps need to be ok. Or as minimum – to be better.

Also, I fixed some inaccuracy with screen drawing. It is some features of language Pascal, that I did not knew before.  

Game is working according CMD command line. It is a build  for Win32 for I386 systems. Size of console screen is 80 at 25.

And jumping are ok now!

Also, game is goes with package Basic Pascal games:

[ Pre show ]

Simple game. You are riding by the road with a little car, which have so square wheels. And you need to overpass everyone here. 3 types of similar looking little cars, made with two squares. And 8 levels. With 1 minute long.

First levels are simple. And next speed is rising up. Game is not difficult. And you have three lives.

Black background. And white lines. All the graphics.

Cool little car with big wheels. Maybeб they are square.

Game with settings. Max it is 4 splashes at the screen. And every splash – max with 4 circles can have.

And parameters to setup. Time interval between them.

Game is written with Free Pascal with unit Graph.

You can play as arcade as simulation. It depends on settings. So, to appear often for example. Every several seconds. Or rare once in five or ten minutes.

You can setup limit of time or score limit.
