Slime Volleyball for the TI-Nspire!

by FarmerJoe279, Nov 21, 2018, 3:37 AM

Based on the competitive browser soccer game, Slime Volleyball is a simple game for your TI-Nspire! With the power of playing volleyball, guide your slime to beat the opposing slime five times, and win the match! On the way, you’ll find different colored slimes, more different colored slimes, and even more different colored slimes! Though the design and idea is quite simple, this is a straightforward, and relatively fun game to add to your Nspire.

Design: 7/10
Simple, a bit boring.

Functionality: 8/10
Plain old volleyball.
Though, you can change color by pressing [TAB](Player 1) or [DEL](Player 2).

Practicality: 6/10
One player controls are easy to use, two player controls are really hard to use.
Keep in mind that you cannot hold a button to continuously move, you have to spam it.

Performance: 8/10
Between borderline and acceptable. (27-33 FPS)

Overall: 7/10
Your average Lua game. Not as good as Super Slime Soccer but decent enough if you’re bored in math.

Note: AoPS doesn't support "wacky emoji symbols" so the division symbol should actually be the colon ( : ) with a line through it.
Also, secondary symbols for Player 2 are a bit weird so I haven't added them in.

P.S. - If there are any typos, let me or Ta-180m know. Thanks!

  • And they can't make Ndless because they don't have OS 5.0 running on emulator

    by Ta-180m, Oct 16, 2019, 7:24 PM

  • The main problem is that the Ndless devs can't boot OS 5.0/5.1 on emulator because they need Ndless to get boot images

  • Unfortunately, there's not been too much progress...

    by Ta-180m, Oct 16, 2019, 7:22 PM

  • @bobcat1337 there are some programs out there that can let you view PDFs on your Nspire. They require Ndless and one such is nPDF (http://www.omnimaga.org/ti-nspire-projects/npdf-a-document-viewer-for-the-nspire/)
