INFO:
AIR HOCKEY for the NES is an attempt to build a game in the style of the early NES "Black Box" titles.
All of the code for this game is available free and open source here:
BThacker/nes_air_hockey_public: A "new" NES game, Air Hockey! Built in the style of the original "black box" NES titles.
See the readme in that repo for more information.
It's a fully featured game, with 1 player vs AI, or 2 player.
First to 7 wins! Hold B for a speed boost, or let off so the puck bounces less to try and keep the puck in a particular place to line up a shot etc.
The rom for this game is free to download, but a small donation towards the development would be much appreciated! It should work in any NES emulator but also on a flash cart and real hardware!
This project was built using the awesome NESFab library by pubby.
pubby/nesfab: Programming language that targets the Nintendo Entertainment System
