Hockaloogie 96+
Creator: Peter Newman
Hockaloogie 96+ is an ice hockey simulation in Klik n Play, and it's very good. The computer opponent really knows what to do, making this game one of the best examples of Klik n Play programming around. You can also play against a human opponent, and set the time the match will run for. As is typical of Peter Newman's games, the options screens and general presentation are very good, and you won't forget who made it either.
Limitations of Klik n Play meant that race car movement had to be given to the human players, and although you won't notice them driving like race-cars it does take a bit of getting used to. There is also no way out of the victory screens except by using f2 (new game) or Alt-f4, but these are insignificant niggles and do not stop Hockaloogie 96+ from being an excellent example of Klik n Play programming.
