Game-No-Watch Ball (Channel F)

First Released:  Thursday 11th February 2024

Updated: Friday 12th February 2024 - Main release

One Player game

A port of the 1980 Game and Watch game Ball - without the watch.

Press 1 to get to the start screen
Press 2 to get to the attract mode (1 ball automated)
Press 3 to get to 2 ball mode
Press 4 to get to 3 ball mode
Left or right on controller moves hands
Mute for sanity

In 2 ball mode you get 1 point for each successful catch
Every 10 points the speed increases
Every 100 points the speed resets
Max display score is 9,999 but will continue to keep going after overflow

In 3 ball mode you get 10 points for each successful catch
Every 100 points the speed increases
Every 1,000 points the speed resets
Max display score is 9,990 but will continue to keep going after overflow

Things I need to do:

Need to do a instruction manual - I'm unsure whether to keep the Channel F format or do a Game and Watch one instead.

Decide on whether to reimplement the "show all ball positions" as a feature of startup and pressing 1. This is minor and not gameplay related

Moving feet - I have forgot to reset the position of feet, unlike the startup section, this would slightly impact gameplay as cycles would be dedicated to changing the feet graphics, it would be very minor but would delay (possibly deciseconds at most?) between arm movement and the next ball movement for a possible slight advantage for anyone doing this for highscores from the current version.
