Down-Hill Skiing for GWBasic

This is another game I got from a long forgotten Basic book in the school library. It’s pretty simple, you are a skier going down a slope and need to keep from hitting the edges of the ski-run. As per Ghost Guzzler I have re-written this game for better timing as it was CPU dependent for speed, and I have added a feature or two. Interestingly this game uses the text scrolling ability to make it look like a much more advanced scrolling graphical game. I’ve seen another game that uses this technique recently called Space Escape that I found quite fun.

Anyway here is the code.

Update: I now have this available on github which is a better place to get this code. You can find it here along with some other GWBasic code.
