| A quite accurate simulation of how difficult it can be to cross some of the UK's major roads in this day and age. Or perhaps it is set in the near future when 8-lane highways are the norm, between your house and the corner shop as you desperately venture out for a loaf of bread. Strangely, this one is quite reminiscent of when I perilously crossed under Junction 10 of the M53 as a pedestrian a few weeks back, except that this game seems slightly more easy than that particular real life escapade. That junction is currently earmarked for future pedestrian access upgrades (after someone gets killed? I wonder). Anyway, I'm veering off topic with this game-induced flashback! A cursory glance at the BASIC code reveals this one to be choc-full of BASIC command extensions, which look pretty useful. For a moment I thought I was looking at some sort of Beta BASIC type listing but I know Woody "rolls his own" BASIC extensions - so perhaps this is the case here? Playing the game, I managed to cross the road four times before getting mowed down. At least the drivers are good enough to stay in lane and there are no problems of traffic weaving. Mercifully, speed limits are also adhered to. With some careful timing I found a way of safely crossing the entire eight lanes of traffic in one movement, which I was feeling quite smug about until I somehow still managed to get killed. |
