Slime Volleyball for the TI-Nspire!

by FarmerJoe279, Nov 20, 2018, 9:37 PM

Based on the competitive browser soccer game, Slime Volleyball is a simple game for your TI-Nspire! With the power of playing volleyball, guide your slime to beat the opposing slime five times, and win the match! On the way, you’ll find different colored slimes, more different colored slimes, and even more different colored slimes! Though the design and idea is quite simple, this is a straightforward, and relatively fun game to add to your Nspire.

Design: 7/10
Simple, a bit boring.

Functionality: 8/10
Plain old volleyball.
Though, you can change color by pressing [TAB](Player 1) or [DEL](Player 2).

Practicality: 6/10
One player controls are easy to use, two player controls are really hard to use.
Keep in mind that you cannot hold a button to continuously move, you have to spam it.

Performance: 8/10
Between borderline and acceptable. (27-33 FPS)

Overall: 7/10
Your average Lua game. Not as good as Super Slime Soccer but decent enough if you’re bored in math.


Installation

(1) Download and install TI Connect CE on your computer if you don’t already have it.

(2) Download slime.zip

(2) Unzip the folder and transfer the Slime Volleyball v.1.0.tns file to your calculator using TI Connect CE.

(3) Now, select "Slime Volleyball" from your documents

(4) Press 1 or 2 to play one player or two player respectively. Or, press 3 to view controls.

Note: AoPS doesn't support "wacky emoji symbols" so the division symbol should actually be the colon ( : ) with a line through it.
Also, secondary symbols for Player 2 are a bit weird so I haven't added them in.

P.S. - If there are any typos, let me or Ta-180m know. Thanks!

    Jby Ta-180m, Oct 16, 2019, 2:26 PM

  • And they can't make Ndless because they don't have OS 5.0 running on emulator

    Jby Ta-180m, Oct 16, 2019, 2:24 PM

  • The main problem is that the Ndless devs can't boot OS 5.0/5.1 on emulator because they need Ndless to get boot images

    Jby Ta-180m, Oct 16, 2019, 2:23 PM

  • Unfortunately, there's not been too much progress...

    Jby Ta-180m, Oct 16, 2019, 2:22 PM

  • Hey guys, someone has news about the Ndless development for the 5.0/5.1 OS (nspire cx II)?

    Jby tpougy, Oct 15, 2019, 11:33 PM

  • @bobcat1337 there are some programs out there that can let you view PDFs on your Nspire. They require Ndless and one such is nPDF (http://www.omnimaga.org/ti-nspire-projects/npdf-a-document-viewer-for-the-nspire/)

    Jby FarmerJoe279, Oct 10, 2019, 8:12 AM

  • Does Ndless work on ti-nspire cx ii?

    Jby Ta-180m, Apr 27, 2019, 12:02 PM

  • The TI-84 Plus has some good games, but you'll have to tolerate the black and white display

    Jby Ta-180m, Apr 26, 2019, 4:58 PM

  • Are there any good games for a regular TI-84 Plus? Or are most of the games for a TI-Nspire or a TI-84 Plus CE?

    Jby piphi, Apr 24, 2019, 6:50 PM

  • Just got SMB1 running on my Nspire!
    Time for some speedrunning...

    Jby FarmerJoe279, Apr 18, 2019, 9:15 PM

  • 100 MB vs. 90 MB, so not too bad of a downgrade

    Jby Ta-180m, Apr 16, 2019, 2:02 PM

  • How much RAM does the TI-Nspire CX have? And how much RAM does the TI-Nspire CX II have?

  • New blog post! Tetris for the TI-84 Plus CE

    Jby Ta-180m, Dec 7, 2018, 3:23 PM

  • From the pictures in this blog TI-Connect CE does look cleaner than TI-Nspire Computer Link

    Jby piphi, Nov 26, 2018, 1:07 PM

  • Is it just me, or does the TI-Connect CE software look cleaner and more modern than the Nspire software?

    Jby FarmerJoe279, Nov 21, 2018, 2:17 PM

  • New Entry: Slime Volleyball!!

    Jby FarmerJoe279, Nov 20, 2018, 9:37 PM

  • wow.....

    Jby piphi, Nov 20, 2018, 6:16 PM

  • There's also a Lua version of it: https://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/457/45729.html
    Though it's in 2D, it has many features ranging from dungeons to bow and arrows.

    Jby FarmerJoe279, Nov 20, 2018, 3:09 PM

  • Yeah, take a look at this: https://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/460/46054.html
    You need Ndless and it's missing a lot of functionality... but it's still Minecraft!

    Jby Ta-180m, Nov 20, 2018, 2:13 PM

  • Can you actually download minecraft on a TI-Nspire?

    Jby piphi, Nov 20, 2018, 12:34 PM

  • Yeah, check out this link: https://www.ticalc.org/pub/83plus/

    Jby Ta-180m, Nov 10, 2018, 2:05 PM

  • I are there any downloadable good games for a TI-84 Plus (not a TI-84 Plus CE)?
