Puzzle: Wheel of fortune game 'YAWoFFA'
Developer 'zooperdan' today released his BlitzBasic-written implementation of the Wheel of Fortune game called 'YAWoFFA' (Yet Another Wheel of Fortune For Amiga). The principle should be familiar: Spin the wheel of fortune, choose a letter and try to solve the word or combination of words you are looking for. The game can be played alone or with four players.
YAWoFFA requires Kickstart 2.x and 1MB chip ram. In the current version 0.4 the game supports only English terms and offers the four categories 'Amiga Games', 'Movies', 'Famous people' and 'Miscellaneous'. In future versions a computer opponent and more categories are planned. The game is available for free, a small donation is of course welcome.
Since we have accompanied the development of the game for some time and were in exchange with the developer, we asked whether a German-language variant would also be possible. The author kindly took care of it, but so far failed in the implementation of the 'umlauts' in BlitzBasic. He is happy about suggestions in this regard, but points out that the idea of reading the text file (with the words) with the correct code does not work in BlitzBasic. (dr)
