1. Introduction

This is old stuff of my own, that I've found back on the 'Net after a couple of years.

Sometimes Google amazes me... It remembers stuff I've already forgotten...

2. 4x4x4

(Windows 3.1, Windows 95)

(August 1998)

Three-dimensional-four-on-a-row. Or five, or six. More is not advisable, because the 216 squares when playing 6x6x6 almost can't be done. I myself didn't ever finish this version with a good result.

I never developed 4x4x4 for commercial purposes, but I did it to find out what can be done with Delphi. So, don't punish me when it doesn't work the way you expect it to work.

The goal of the game is simple. When 4 (or 5 or 6) squares have your color and it is possible to perforate them with one stick, you win. When 4 (or 5 or 6) squares have the color of your opponent and it is possible to perforate them with one stick, you lose. It is possible to play versus yourself, a friend or against the computer. (Because of the structure of the program, it is not possible to let the computer play against itself.)

3. EvMenu

(Windows 3.1, Windows 95)

(August 1998)

This is the place to obtain the latest version of EvMenu (5 September 1998, 224 Kb). EvMenu is a shareware program that turns the most upper row of pixels of your Windows-screen into a thing that pulls down a menu when you click on it, even if there is an other program running full screen. (Does somebody knows how to get a smaller load with Delphi? 224 KB looks a bit to much to me for such a simple program.)
