v1.2
abdb701

Naval combat for the MSX2. Seven rulesets, from a gentle kids' mode to salvo duels of pure deduction, with best-of-N match play.

What is new since v1.1

  • It boots in about half the time. Power-on to the first placement prompt falls from 84 seconds to 48.
  • ANKA has a submarine. The kids' ruleset gains a three-square submarine: six ships and 24 squares.
  • The game no longer writes to the disk.
  • The match score updates the moment a game ends, rather than staying stale under the banner announcing it.
  • More free memory in every ruleset, which is what the out-of-memory in long salvo games came down to.
  • New screenshots, and a pass over the manual and the README.
