 BASIC 10Liners 2023 Results

Tron264 screenshotSilently, in the loud cloud of the mega releases for the mega parties, quietly but inexorably, the 9th edition of one of the most loved online compo parties has reached its natural end with the final results of the 2023 edition.

BASIC 10 Liners 2023 has seen once again some very interesting Basic V3.5 works shine in the roster of the participants.
In the PUR-80 category, three friends have crossed swords against their fierce rivals, but most of all this competition has seen the name of a fundamental Plus/4 scene's group raise from the grave! Yes, Synergy is back, thanks to the two entries by Haegar, which got ranked respectively 24th (Mini Tron) and 29th (Soli Pong)! Tron264 by FeCO reached the 35th place, although a Tron-like game offering two game's modes would probably have deserved more than that.

Veteran coder raze carried around the 264 flag, joining the PUR-120 category with Mini Mars Plus, a vector game which refreshes the soul of a Lunar Lander -ish ancestor with a splash of Thrust. 8th place out of 9 for it.
And in the end, here we are in the massive EXTREM-256 category, where FeCO again puts you behind the wheel on the highway, the road is a mess, the horizon gets blue far away, the 17th place is on sight.

Congratulations to all the participants, you honoured the beloved black box. See ya in 2024!

Hey there, nice to see you back after a slight 18 year gap grin

I was glad to see some entries from you, and I don't want this to sound too disparaging, but your code could have used a bit more polish. There were many obvious optimizations that I could see just by glancing at it.

Also I feel like the judges on this compo are way too harsh :-/

Well, anyway, there's always next year happy

Hi Csabo,

there is definitely still a lot to optimize. Programming something for the first time after almost 20 years wasn't that easy, I've forgotten a lot over the years.
After the hard drive crash 18 years ago I didn't feel like doing everything again sad
It was definitely fun and we'll see, maybe there's more to come.
