scat bikes (inc)

This is a chinese-checkers like game (but simpler).

It is based on a game in Tim Hartnell's 1984 book "The Big Fat Book of Computer Games"; and is in fact the 2nd last game in the book...

There are 2 players (human v computer), each with 8 pieces that must get to the opposite side of the board. The winner is the player who gets their pieces accross frist. Simple really!

I don't know what a "Scat Bike" is - though (apparently) there was a dirt (motor) bike of that name in the 1970s.

Enjoy!

Thanks speter for your nice games.

Yesterday I came across a site with free Lazarus sources for many games (quite a number of 16 logic games and many more others) here:

Wow, that looks like a great resource with 100+ free pascal / lazarus projects.

cheers

I am posting a new version of this game.
The differences are minor (but have a significant impact on the game).

• The computer moves first, which means the computer will always win unless you block some of their pieces.
• The counter image has been replaced with an improved version, where the "bike" is etched into the counter. Sadly, you can't really distinguish this unless you have a super-high-res screen.  :'(

Enjoy

PS: In case anyone is interested, the pieces were created in OpenSCAD.
