Mac

Meteor Storm is a simple MSX BASIC game about flying though an asteroid field at increasingly high speeds. Are you an ace pilot? Meteor Storm was written to take advantage of the rarely used MSX Paddle Controller standard, which means that it can theoretically be played as intended using all of the following devices:

  • DigiArkaPad DIY Paddle Controller (in Standard mode, this is the device the game was tested on)
  • Atari 2600 paddle with DIY adapter
  • Yamaha MMP-01 touch pad and compatible devices
  • IBM-PC DA15 joystick with DIY adapter
  • Nintendo 64 controller with DIY adapter
Storm

Please note that the Taito Arkanoid Vaus MSX Paddle uses an entirely different protocol and is therefore incompatible. Additionally, MSX Turbo-R computers cannot use any of the above devices without first installing TRnewdrv.

Meteor Storm also supports keyboard, joypad, or mouse control- see installation instructions for details.

Your high score is recorded in HISCORE.TXT and will automatically be updated by the game whenever you break your previous record. Your game has been initialized to my high score.. let's see if you can beat it!

Please use an MSX-MUSIC compatible device for highest-quality audio.

Game

Meteor Storm was created by _NetNomad and Maddie. At the beginning of the project, I was explaining to Maddie the basics of how the MSX and my code worked. By the end of the project, she was the one explaining to me how the code did (and more importantly didn't) work!

Install instructions

Meteor Storm can be played on any MSX computer or on any modern computer with an MSX emulator. On a real MSX, simply write the contents of METEORS.ZIP to your floppy disk or floppy emulator or place the folder on your disk drive and enter BASIC, navigating to the METEORS subdirectory needbe. In emulators simply mount the zip file as a disk or (as I found I had to do in WebMSX) import all files in folder to disk. If AUTOEXEC.BAS does not run automatically (your screen does not instantly turn black), type LOAD'AUTOEXEC.BAS' and hit enter, and then run and hit enter.

Simply type LOAD'filename.BAS':RUN in BASIC after running AUTOEXEC.BAS to play. Replace filename with METEORS to play with a paddle, METEORKB to play with a keyboard, METEORMS to play with a mouse, or METEORJP to play with a joypad. Please note that the mouse is not supported on the MSX1 and the paddle is not supported on the Turbo-R without a modified BIOS.

Meteor Storm is configured for MSX-MUSIC by default. In order to play with only PSG audio, rename METEORS.MGS to something else and then rename PSG.MGS to METEORS.MGS.
