Cruising on Broadway

Cruising on Broadway is a remake of the classic Spectrum grid-painting game. As a software review, we can tell you that this particular iteration of the game is a very simple and minimalistic game that is surprisingly addictive. The game's objective is simple enough: you have to color in the tracks while simultaneously avoiding the chasers. Luckily, to make things a bit easier, you can also put a temporary hole in the track that neither you nor the chasers can cross.

In terms of graphics, the Cruising on Broadway project employs a similarly minimalistic approach. You take on the role of a blue blob, while the chasers flash red and white. There are three levels of difficulty, each with three speeds, to keep things exciting. One important note is that there is no sound in this game - the original iteration didn't have any either, except when displaying text.

When playing, you only have one life, which adds an extra layer of tension to the game. If you're already familiar with the original game, you may be interested in the new features added to this release. The most notable changes include updates to configuration files, a removal of a bogus message, the option to customize the #MIN_CONFIG tag, and the addition of kde_moduledir.

Overall, if you're looking for a simple yet addictive game to while away the hours, Cruising on Broadway is definitely worth your time. You can control your blob's movements using the arrow keys on your keyboard, while the "control" key allows you to put up a hole, and "escape" allows you to abandon the game at any time.
