Arcade puzzle games are often overlooked, so here's "Klax" (1990) from Atari.

Colored blocks roll down a conveyor belt, and you must catch them and drop them in rows, columns, or diagonals. Levels have specific goals, like scoring a certain number of diagonals, or surviving a certain number of blocks.

It's a good game to emulate on mobile, while on a waiting room. Which I guess kind of says why we don't usually think about puzzle games in arcades...

Screen capture from Klax's attract sequence. A black screen with white text that says: "It is the nineties and there is time for..." "Add Coins to Start"
Another capture from Klax's attract sequence. It shows the Atari Games logo, and the word "Klax" where the "K" is a hand (that rotates and gets replaced by an actual "K" periodically).
The blocks are rolling down a conveyor belt from the distance. You have a paddle that can hold a certain number of blocks. When you drop a block from the paddle's stack, the top block drops first.
In this level, you have do do a certain number of "Klaxs" (rows, columns, diagonals of the same color) to complete the level. The "drop meter" says you can't fail to catch more than 3 blocks. Of course, as the level goes on, it becomes harder to catch them all, and that's how you lose.

Mi juego para I, REBEL: A JEFF MINTER GAME JAM por Atari

La semana pasada participé de este concurso de desarrollo de un videojuego. Estuvo bastante divertido y algunas personas me han dicho que el resultado es divertido, lo que me hace inmensamente feliz.

J'ai réparé mon imprimante matricielle ! 🎉
C'est une Star LC-10, elle imprimait un début de ligne et le chariot se bloquait avant que l'imprimante ne se mette en erreur.
J'ai vérifié l'alimentation, la commande du moteur du chariot, RAS.
Au final c'était un problème mécanique, j'ai graissé les éléments mobiles du chariot et j'ai fait tourner le ruban encreur dans sa cartouche avec une visseuse électrique, et ça m'a l'air bon maintenant !
Testé avec mon #Atari Mega STE et le traitement de texte Papyrus (et pas la bonne fonte!)
