2022 - November - TecnoballZ - Ended

Hello,

For November we'll be playing TecnoballZ, a bat-n-ball game similar to Arkanoid, which many of you probably are familiar with.

TecnoballZ was created by TLK Games and ported to AmigaOS 4 by ToAks, Frak, and AlexC.

The game works on all AmigaOS 4 configurations, including WinUAE. It is written on OS4Depot that you can even run it on AmigaOS Pre-release Update 3!

It is available for download from OS4Depot. You can use the link below to download it directly:

The goal is to clear all the bricks from the screen, then move on to the next.

You can find more information, including a video, in a review I wrote on my blog:

The settings are as follows:

Difficulty - Hard
Lives - 3

The contest runs until November 30th.

Good luck every one! Hope as many as possible will participate this time. Maybe you will become the Amigans.net champion of TecnoballZ?

Let's kick TechnoballZ off! I vaguely remember this game on my classic system, definitely played it before. Just not sure what is going on with those space ships after 5th level. It was insta-kill and game over with 3 lives left...

@levellord

@328gts

Thanks for the score, 328gts! You are now in 1st place!

Update :)

it took me FOREVER to pass that first Boss level but I said one last try before bed time & I finally did it

Thanks for the scores!

Congratulations to 328gts, who won the contest! Well done!

@328gts, Voodoo

HOW? I could not beat the first boss and was playing to the point of great frustration until I dropped the game completely. All kudos to you two!

@levellord

I hear ya that was a crazy hard 1st level boss..actually bosses!

The biggest thing was to go into the boss level with as many lives possible and it's impossible to beat both bosses using only 1 ball so eventually I got a power up that gave me 3 balls and even then I barely survived but then again I had that power up so many times and still couldn't beat the level so in the end I guess I just zigged or zagged better somewhere

@levellord

I do not know, really :D I was on few beers when I got this score :D but, now I see that it was not enough ... congrats to @328gts :D

Hehe, thanks for the tips! I guess I was impatient, but next time I'll get plastered and see how that work for me.

hehe some drinks and fun games definitely go hand in hand eh

so what are we playing for December guys ?
