@tixiv Fun! Please make a csdb entry as well. :)
I really like the creativity of this game. | User Comment Submitted by wil on 17 November 2024
@tixiv This is wild! "I find clamping the 1541 between my legs while sitting gives the best gaming experience." Sounds like something straight out of an April Fool’s Day post! 馃槃
While I’m not entirely sold on datasettes and floppies replacing joysticks or keyboards as input devices, it is a great idea using the write-only sensor as input switch. | User Comment Submitted by tixiv on 17 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by aeeben on 3 November 2024
The limited edition physical tape is sold out, I even sold my own copy! :D | User Comment Submitted by Yogibear on 2 November 2024 User Comment Submitted by Smasher on 29 October 2024 User Comment Submitted by Richard on 28 October 2024
Credited Martin Piper for the original tape loader source. Nice game, and a very clever idea. Even I wouldn't have thought about making a game controlled by a datasette. Well done :) | User Comment Submitted by Shine on 28 October 2024 User Comment Submitted by t0m3000 on 28 October 2024 User Comment Submitted by katon on 28 October 2024
Something amazing, I am absolutely surprised! | User Comment Submitted by Magic on 28 October 2024
i saw that youtube first and checking now on CSDB i should have known this idea came from you mister Heatbeat! :) Keep on rocking! | User Comment Submitted by Slator on 28 October 2024 User Comment Submitted by Monte Carlos on 28 October 2024
Maybe you should solder a datasette joy instead of using a real datasette. Will probably put high load on the datasette switches. | User Comment Submitted by Flotsam on 28 October 2024 User Comment Submitted by Digger on 28 October 2024 User Comment Submitted by aeeben on 28 October 2024 User Comment Submitted by aeeben on 28 October 2024
Maneuver your space vessel Aquarius Kala and explore the lakes around the world and beyond.
Aquarius Kala is controlled entirely by your Commodore 1530 C2N Datassette! Press Play to dive, tap to shoot bubbles, and double tap to drop bombs.
Collect boots to recharge battery. Unlock the chests at end of each stage to spin a Bonus Game!
Algae slowly drags your ship deeper. Ship can't be controlled while it's entangled.
Gather samples of algae and take them to Proxima Centauri B. Why not build a new exo-ecosystem there?
Created for Zoo 2024 Game Dev competition.
Commodore 1530 C2N Datassette required for loading the game, controlling the game by touching and tapping the Play button, and receiving haptic feedback via the cassette motor.
(In the digital release, there is a "trainer" option for using the Space Bar instead of the Datassette Play button.)
Limited edition available on tape. See https://bit.ly/aquariusgame for ordering instructions! |
