About the games

SPACE PORTALZ (Copyright 2004 by Marty Hirsch) is a 3d "virtual reality" game that combines elements of Action, Puzzle, and Adventure games. It is easy to learn, but not so easy to master. We think you will like it!

Block Blaster (Copyright 2004 by Marty Hirsch) is a fast-paced game that is a lot of fun to play. You can either play a leisurely "Strategy" game or the exciting "Arcade" game. Block Blaster includes music, sound effects and three play levels.

Inspiration: Block Blaster addes a new element to a familiar theme. A fun, addictive game with Indian music in the Strategy mode and a rock-n'-roll sound track in the Arcade mode.

Tes-Rac-Toe (Copyright 2004 by Marty Hirsch) is something new for you brainiacs - a Four-Dimensional strategy game.

Tes-Rac-Toe presents the classic game of Tic-Tac-Toe in Four Dimensions, using sixteen 4x4 planes. Your goal is to get 4-in-a-row either in any one plane, or across four planes which themselves make 4-in-a-row.

There are two playing modes - the standard mode, and a "Gravity" mode which changes the game by limiting the possible plays at each turn.

Four levels of Artificial Intelligence by Computer Chess Champion Marty Hirsch are available to challenge you - or you can turn the computer brain off and play a friend. The spooky sound effects are not to be missed.

Inspiration: Why not a game in Four Dimensions? Tes-Rac-Toe is a brain-twister with an extra dimension, and features strong Artificial Intelligence at the higher levels. Enjoy!

Quaturnium (Copyright 2004 by Marty Hirsch) is a fast game that requires good strategy and quick thinking, with a background of majestic music. A new twist in a popular genre.

About the technology
SPACE PORTALZ is written in Blitz3d using TerraEd, SwiftGUI, BlitzGrass, BlitzTree and ParticleCandy. The "ant" and Avatar models are by Psionic Designs. Most of the other models are from Geo-Metricks. Music was written by Marty except for the landing theme, by PoserTrax. The install file was built using Molebox and InnoSetup.

Quaturnium, Block Blaster and Tes-Rac-Toe were produced with Macromedia Flash MX 2004. The sound effects were developed with Sonic Foundry Acid Pro 4.0. The Pocket PC versions use C++ to enhance processing speed and are packaged by using FlashAssist Pro and EZsetup.

The Pocket PC versions require Macromedia Flash 6.0, a free download that you can obtain HERE.
