Brief Description:

Laser Balls is a funny deathmatch battle for up to four players,
either controlled by the user or by the computer. 
You drive a bouncing coloured ball into a sort of arena, and you
have to fight against other balls with your laser sword-gun. 
The game also provides a scripting engine, so you can write the
behaviours of the computer enemies.

Read the readme.txt for additional info.


How you met the genre requirements (Source code re-use):

There are more than 5 kb from the demo source code. I re-used the code
for the management of screen update methods. And also timer handling.


How you met the technical requirements (Scroller / VM):

There's a scroller on the menu page at the bottom of the screen.
The VM is used to create AI enemies through simple scripts.


How you met the artistic requirements (Go Nuclear):

Lasers are the key of the game, because you have to kill your
enemies using a laser sword-gun.


Do you have an Act of Goat? (If so, where is it included or external link)

Yes, it is at http://web.tiscali.it/chiesi/software/laser/


Do you have an Act of Dog?

No

Other comments:

Most of the code of the AI Virtual Machine has been taken from the EGG system.
I've to finish to write the documentation for creating VM programs.
