beta 0.4 with NetScore! 2002-07-16 02:08:36

OK, it's been a while. Over a year. But now the new beta is out. I don't work very continuously on Nibbles, since this is not the only thing I do (really!).
beta 0.4 is a very special release, because it has the new NetScore system, which is an online score-database for Nibbles. That means that your best scores are shown online in the tables that can be accessed by going to the NetScore-section.
You perhaps wonder why the page looks slightly altered. Not much better, but altered. Well, the Nibbles Homepage is the first page on the whole wide net that is based on radical webauthoring, which I will also use for TobW.net. For the user nothing will change, but I am more motivated to update the page, because it's a lot easier. That is perhaps one of the things I do when I'm not coding on Nibbles.
So, grab the fresh release here and become addicted to more fluid gameplay and the tempting option to let everybody how damn good you are!

beta 2 released! 2001-04-15 10:49:38

OK, I'm sorry that beta 2 was delayed, but I'm programing so much that I just forgot to release it. No, in fact Win2k messed up my Nibbles-Directory and so I had to reprogram large parts of the game, so please excuse this. Here's a feature-list.
- DirectDraw is supported
- New and enhanced Level-Graphics-System
- DirectSound (oh yes!) is supported
- Difficulty Levels adjusted (or is there anyone playing at "Boring" or "Thrilling" yet?) - some smaller bugfixes
Fortunately I now found a reliable host, which is my Clan Budweiser Force. I am also planning a page-redesign, but Nibbles is more important, so get your beta right now from the Download-section.

Work in progress... 2001-03-18 10:48:47

Wow, I coded quite a lot in the past weeks and soon I will finish the 2nd beta of Classic Nibbles. Besides some smaller optimizations I added DirectX or at least DirectDraw, so that I could overwork the level graphics. The level design is much more pleasant, but requires more work from Luke. As soon as his first level-design is ready and I spiced the game with the last few features, it will be released. This should be next week. I am also planning a full-screen mode for this version.
The new beta won't change anything in the game principle, this is planned for beta 3, that will hopefully have special-item-support.
I uploaded two new skins by Luke, so check out the skins-section. Have fun!

Page started and beta released 2001-02-18 10:47:22

Hi and welcome to the Nibbles project! After quite some time of coding I thought I should release the first beta of my little game that shall give you a first taste of what is coming. So, I opened this page and this is the place where you can get news, infos, releases and other stuff concerning the game. You surely know the principle from good old times or from the Nokia-Version called "Snake". The first beta can be grabbed in the Download-section. So drop me a line if you like the game.
