Evas10n released

Evas10n is my entry to the 2020 edition of the BASIC 10Liner Contest, "PUR-80" category. You can either download it or play it in your web browser (a device with a keyboard is required).

Evas10n is a Breakout – like videogame for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum home computer, implemented in 10 lines of BASIC (max 80 characters per line). Differently from most similar games, in Evas10n you do not have to destroy all the walls, but you must get through the walls to the top of the screen. In this aspect, it is similar to the CHIP-8 Breakout implementation by Carmelo Cortez (which you can play online using my CHIP-8 virtual machine), derived from Wipe Off by Joseph Weisbecker. Although the look is similar to BreakIn, another breakout game I made last year, the code has been totally rewritten from scratch to fit 10 lines.
