Introduction

This is a MSX-DOS version for the Flood-It game that I've written using SDCC.

About the game

Just fill the board with a single color.

How to build

Setup the development environment using Vangrant:

vagrant up

It will create and setup a virtual machine running Ubuntu Linux, with SDCC installed and properly configured to generate MSX-DOS executables (by Avelino' Herreras' backend for MSX-DOS).

When virtual machine ends, simply do:

vagrant ssh
cd /vagrant
make

A MSX-DOS "COM" named paint-it.com will be created. So copy it to a memory card, floppy disk or even to a disk image.

How to play

You need to fill the board with a single color. Press SPACE to generate a new board. Use the following keys to choose a color:

  • B for Blue
  • C for Cyan
  • G for Green
  • M for Magenta
  • R for Red
  • Y for Yellow

Color filling starts from upper left corner and spread to all neighbor blocks with same color. By the way you have only 28 moves to complete this task.
