I created this game during the Christmas holidays of 2017. One of my relatives had an old Mac SE computer and had gotten hooked on playing the Daleks game on it (which is a clone of an older game Robots). They had to give the computer away soon and I said I would make a clone of the game for modern computers so they could keep on playing.
I made the game using FreeBASIC as I wanted to try making a game using it and it felt suitable for the occasian. I had used it once before, during Assembly 2016 to make a flying toasters screensaver (the source code to that is sadly lost).
FreeBASIC is simple once you find out the function signatures and very similar to C. It was easy to make the game and I think the best part is how simple it is to create an executable that is also very small in size.
You can dowload the game from my google drive. The source code is included, so you can port it to other platforms if you want.
