Pavement Panic – My Second Entry into the 2026 BASIC10 Competition

My second entry into the 2026 BASIC10 Liner Competition is Pavement Panic, a fast-paced ghost-dodging survival game for the Amstrad CPC written in just 10 lines of BASIC. Inspired by simple road-crossing games, it starts gently, then quickly turns chaotic as the ghosts speed up and survival time becomes your score.

Retro cassette cover artwork for “Volt Maze” on the Amstrad CPC, featuring a glowing orange electrified maze, a small green player character, and a red robotic hunter, styled like a classic 1980s home computer game.

Voltmaze – My Third Entry into the 2026 BASIC10 Competition

Voltmaze is my third entry into the 2026 BASIC10 Liner Competition… a procedurally generated maze game for the Amstrad CPC written in just 10 lines of BASIC. Inspired by classic 8-bit design and powered by a stack-driven depth-first search algorithm, it’s a small game with surprisingly sharp teeth… electrified walls, flickering hazards, roaming hunters, and a new maze every level.
