Curling 2018

The ancient sport of curling makes a futuristic left turn with the advent of portable rocket boosters in the year 2018. Play the only game that is officially endorsed by the
Association for Robotic Curling. For 1 or 2 players.

For those unfamiliar to the game of curling, it is very similar to the game of shuffleboard. Two teams (or, in this case, players) alternate coasting stones from one end of an ice rink to the other, trying to get their stones closest to the "tee" (the center of a blue and red bullseye). You are allowed to throw your stone into another one to change its position, and you can even stop a stone short of the "house" (the bullseye) to block the shot of your opponent. During every "end" (like an inning in baseball), a total of 16 stones are thrown, the last one called the "hammer shot". Each stone that is closer to the tee than any stone of the opponent is then awarded 1 point. So, the maximum amount of points that can be scored in a single end is 8, and only one team gets the points. The team that loses an end gets the hammer shot for the next. After 10 ends (or 8 in some leagues), the highest scoring team is the
winner! If the two teams are tied, one more end is played to determine the winner.

This is my biggest game so far, in terms of graphics and complexity. You can see some of my earlier works at my website, SammyAndPedro.com.

Isn't 2018 in just 15 years? Technological advances don't happen overnight! BTW. People always do that in games. Just look at Wipeout 2097!
