Happy new year everybody! Here's the best way for a CreatiVision fan to start the new decade, thanks to my good friend Paul Rahme who just released a brand new game: Kapooka - a cool combination of classic logic games as Soko-Ban/Boxy Boy and Boulderdash.
Paul originally designed and released the game on Linux many years ago, and now he made his first attempt in programming the CreatiVision BASIC. He solved many problems due to hardware limitations, but in the end he's been capable of including a sturdy 11 game levels in a bunch of lines of code.
The game is available for download on the BASIC programs page. You can use it on the real console, or you may want to try it on emulators like FunnyMu Unofficial or CvEmu2, which allow you to load it with a single hit on the keyboard.
An additional "debug version" listing and instructions on how to create your own levels are included in the game archive. Very well done, Paul!
