Astro Solutions Dynamite Balls 3D For Two Applet
2.6.2023
http://www.astrosolutions.de

Dynamite Balls 3D For Two is a version of the Astro Solutions game Dynamite. You can choose one of eleven levels and have to eliminate all enemies. This version is for two players. The first player uses the cursor keys and RETURN and the second player the keys s, y, x, c and d. Aliases of the steering keys can be defined in the dialog displayed first. If you only click "apply", you can use the key "z" as alias for the key "y", which makes sense for the US keyboard layout. You can use ESC to quit the game. The players change to the camera positioning mode with "-" or "a". The mode is left with the same key.
The players define two bases on the gamefield. This is done by pressing RETURN or "d" after selecting a position with the cursor keys or (s, y, x, c). If RETURN or "d" is pressed, while the player is positioned at a base, a cannonball is activated, which flies from the first base to the second base and can eliminate an enemy, if it hits the enemy. If RETURN or "d" is pressed and the player is positioned outside the bases, the first base is moved to the position of the player. The players must avoid touching the enemies or their cannonballs. This 3D game is untextured and the graphics are computed on the CPU.

This game is thread-safe. The applet is compatible to JAVA 1.1.8, MSJVM and JAVA 1.8 and uses a deprecated JAVA API.
