nGravnix
About: This is a game for the TI-nSpire! It was based off of a Flash game call Gravnix. It works on the TI-NSpire CX with ndless 3.1 or ndless 3.6 and should work on all of the TI-nspire models. It is a puzzle game. The goal is to clear the board of the colorful blocks (including the rainbow blocks). You do this by changing the direction and all blocks will slide in that direction if they can. And anytime there are 2 or more blocks of the same color next to each other they will disappear. There are a few special blocks found in some levels that adds even more depth to the game. You only have a certain number of moves. I hope you enjoy it!
How to put on calculator: Start up TI-NSpire Student Software or whatever you use to put it on the calculator. Then just drag-n-drop the nGravnix-sdl.tns file into the application to transfer it to your calculator. You have to have ndless 3.1 or ndless 3.6 on your calculator in order to run it!
After you run it; you can add and play additional levels. With ndless it allows start up files; and so you can add more level files to your calculator and play them!
How to play: Navigate the menu using the arrow keys (or 2 and 8 keys) and the Enter key to start a new game. Use the arrow keys (or 2,4,6 and 8 keys) to change the direction the blocks slide around the board Use the - and + keys to undo and redo your moves.
Extra levels: This program works with external level files! There is only a sample level that is very easy. See the source code file GravnixLevels.h to see the make-up of the puzzle files should you want to make your own. Extra level files which can be placed in any folder on the calculator. A subfolder is a great place to put them. When you first ran nGravnix-sdl it registered the extension 'gravnix' and so because the levels have the extension 'gravnix' at the end it is associated with the nGravnix-sdl program.
There is a level editor too! With the level editor you specify the dimension of the board; then next you specify the move limit. After than just press the enter key to cycle through available board spot values. You can test the level by pressing the space key. And finally to save your level press the 'ctrl' key.
Source: I included my source. I programmed with C++ which you can find out more here: http://blog.tangrs.id.au/?p=712 It uses nSDL as well as the ndless Software Development Kit.
