Billiards

Billiards is a 2-player sports game for the BBC Micro.

Played from a top-down perspective, players position their shot by placing a cross on the screen indicating the direction of the shot. The player then selects the level of stop or backspin and speed or power of the shot. Player 1 uses a blue cue ball; Player 2 uses green. The player receives points for pocketing a red ball, pocketing a cue ball, in/off red, in/off other cue ball, and cannon. Three points are removed if the cue ball does not hit another ball.
