Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/trying to remember a game

I don't remember if it was an arcade game or a PC game but you drew circles around things to destroy them. I'm thinking of something like this as a side-project from my game but I wanted to check it out first.

It used to be called Quantum.

^^^ That's what I think it was too.

If it's something you saw around here, I made a version a few years ago called "orbit". I still have it here, but it's been shelved for newer projects. I've thought about reviving it at some point, but changing things to be more flashy in a Geometry Wars style.

Thanks guys. Dang Pongo... that's the style I was thinking of :). Ah well, good luck with it and keep me posted?

edit: Yep that's the one Mystik. Thanks for the link... there goes my night :). Did you code that?

Not one of mine. It was coded by Mark Incitti. He also did an amazing Geometry Wars clone. Although it had to be removed because it was so close to the original.

An excellent example of what Blitz can do.

ive not played geometry wars but afaik its just asteroids with minteresque gfx

so how can remaking asteroids type vectors be infringing?

but those in microsofts pockets have microsofts lawyers

Comparing Geometry Wars to Asteroids is stretching it. :)

It's more like Robotron, if anything.

only ever seen screen shots

looks like asteroids with minters drugs ;)
