A downloadable game

Formula 1 is a small, fictive formula 1 game & watch style lcd game with high score keeping. The Game was initially created over a decade ago for a small retrogame competition in delphi, after which it got ported to the gp2x in c/c++ then to Playdate and now to Vircon32. This version is based on the Playdate version but which has added high score saving compared to the original gp2x version.

Vircon32 Game Features:

  • Code adapted to work with Vircon32 console
  • Saves best score in memory card (if inserted)
  • Changed sounds so they are traceable and use open licenses
  • Adapted graphics to match Vircon32 resolution
  • Removed game & watch logo on the handheld image

Graphics

All graphics are created by me, joyrider3774 aka Willems Davy initially in Jasc Paint Shop Pro 7 for the gp2x version later modified using GIMP. The "handheld" is a graphically edited image of a picture taken of an LCD Handheld but i can't remember which one. It highly differs from its original. Feel free to use the graphics as long as you credit me.
