What is SEUCK?
SEUCK = Shoot 'Em Up Construction Kit

SEUCK is an acronym for "Shoot Em Up Construction Kit". SEUCK is an old commercial C64 utility that allows you to create and generate your very own shoot 'em ups or other game ideas with the aid of various sub menus pre-built into the program itself. SEUCK was swiss army knife of games development without needing any knowledge of code. Why was that? It was because there is no programming language required. Your game can be constructed using a set of menus. sprites, objects, background graphics, sound effects (music requires additional custom code), attack waves, player limitations, level settings, play test and even its own disk or tape mastering system. The tape version had its own auto boot tape with built in SEUCK fast loader tape system. Out of many games creation editors, SEUCK is by far the most easiest games creator for the Commodore 64. It is also a whole lot of fun too.

Although you can make fun games with SEUCK. The editor also has its own limitations about what you can or can't do to build your own game. Common pitfalls, are the game engine is very limited or restricted with the number of units available for attack patterns. On the plus side, it is possible to implement clever tricks using the attack waves. For example a boss sprite is formed of linked enemies and will not explode as a whole set after 15 shots. The down side it it is that you will have to kill a boss by shooting each sprite separately. There's also the waiting time for a level to complete after shooting a boss clean. As well as basic game play, SEUCK can also churn out some quality games productions that really outsmart the SEUCK even without programming. Here are a few examples (available on the TND web site) ...

Clever tricks made in SEUCK games - WITHOUT CODE:

VIOS by Carl Mason



VIOS shows quality than quantity. inside the Shoot Em Up Construction Kit. Back in 1994, Carl wrote this game, then in 2011 TND had the pleasure of hosting the special 2011 edition of the same game. Carl made this game as an inspiration to a lot of the classic Japanese console/arcade mech-inspired games. VIOS was a fast paced shoot 'em up in which you have to do battle against a deadly machine. The detail in this game is really amazing and the tricks for the boss fights were stunning. What made it even amazing was that *no programming tricks were used* .

Barakon by Alf Yngve



Back in 2010. Alf Yngve showed more of his talent by creating a mean beat 'em up using SEUCK. Barakon was a fun beat 'em up which you have to do battle against an evil army, the Confederate Militia. The way to get through the battle is to use your bionic battle fists. SEUCK does have its own limitations. It is still possible to make beat 'em ups with this editor. This game did really well in the Official C64 SEUCK Compo 2010 and made second place.

C'notte D'Knight! by Aldo Chiummo



Finally, if you wanted to make a Fire Trap type of game set in Medieval times this game proves it possible. C'Notte D'Knight has you as C'Notte who has to climb up the castles and rescue the princess. There are enemy guards and other hazards which get in your way. The game's design is quite stunning, and the game, itself is also fun to play.

Sideways SEUCK

In 2008, Jon Wells created a Sideways Scrolling SEUCK. This tool still had the same limitations as the original SEUCK, but it scrolled sideways. The Sideways SEUCK allowed gamers to create their own sideways scrolling shoot 'em ups. The majority of those were mainly space shooters. However, here are 3 more games that stood out well with Sideways SEUCK:

Dream World by Gaetano Chiummo



This was a nice push scrolling shoot 'em up, with a sad tale. It was about a boy who was very naughty and got no presents for Christmas. He enters a magical world and attempts to collect toys, while he faces the deadly monsters and other critters. This is a nice cartoon caper push scroller.

Zombie Brain Eaters by Andy / Arkanix Labs



SEUCK is not only designed for shoot 'em ups. What about Operation Wolf type of games?. Zombie Brain Eaters is exactly one of those in which you have to fight deadly zombies - and avoid getting bitten by them otherwise you will lose a life. This game has some really nice graphics, and the monsters are scary.

Barney by Wile Coyote



The final choice for this category has to be one of the best looking sideways SEUCK games I have ever seen. It isn't a shoot 'em up, but a collect 'em up instead. You play Barney, a cowfish who has to navigate through the coral reef collecting pearls and also avoiding dangers that lurk inside the reef. Barney has only one life, which can be short lived - unless of course you play the game well.

What about the SEUCK Compo?

The Official C64 SEUCK Compo was first launched by Akira, at shmups.com, but eventually passed the gauntlet to TND to host the compo. Since 2009, the Official C64 SEUCK Compo has been quite successful and it has been continuing (with breaks between) through to 2020. The competition invited people  to write and submit their own SEUCK games without allowing enhancements at first. A few years later the competition allowed innovative game enhancements for compo entries. There have been a lot of amazing entries over the past several years.

This will be the final SEUCK Compo on the TND web site.

Finally the history of the compo is over. Now let's get to the fun part ... Aim + Categories.

Like with the past few competitions the aim of the Official C64 SEUCK Compo 2021 is to create and generate a fully playable game, with aid of using the Shoot Em Up Construction Kit or the Sideways Scrolling SEUCK. The objective is to make any kind of game genre that you think might stand out in front of the crowd. It will be worth it, since last year's winner managed to create something quite original, well presented and a whole lot of fun. The prize was a fully enhanced version of the game. If you win this year's compo, the same thing can happen to you. 

Here is what is what is suggested for the compo entries (although it is not compulsory):

Presentation and design

- Front end presentation should have at least a logo and credits, rather than a full page with just plain text. SEUCK's front end is very restrictive for designing and creating your very own front end. To create a logo, you can use the character editor in the title screen editor to create chars that form a logo. The easiest way would be to use characters that you don't need (using the Edit Character Set option in the EDIT FRONT END menu. Then manually construct the logo in the front end editor. You might want to use the Action Replay M/C monitor to change the rolling bar colours if there are colours that you don't want. You may use SEUCK School enhancement Action Replay tips to change colours if you want to.

 

Good quality game design and originality

- Game content should stand out well. There should be nice graphics, and the sprites should be clear to see when playing this game. Graphics should have some time spent on them. Rendering PC made graphics/models of your own, then converting those to C64 is one good option. Exploring other background and sprite graphics can be quite helpful as well. Alienator uses a clever example of creating an Operation Wolf style game. It's highly playable and good fun. Also Dodo's Deep Doo Doo shows that you cannot only make shoot 'em ups using SEUCK/Sideways SEUCK. There is no harm in experimenting with new ideas and perhaps bringing those out. :) Another important key is playability. The game should be playable, addictive and fun. Make sure your game has at least one collectible item for the player to grab.

Regarding graphics: You are welcome to use Charpad/Sprite pad and import into SEUCK if you think this method is easier for drawing graphics/sprites ;)


Enhancements and use of SEUCK Redux is welcome but not essential

This year's Official C64 SEUCK Compo is not only open to SEUCK game developers who cannot code, but also it is open to programmers who like to enhance their own or friends SEUCK creations. You are welcome to add some enhancements from the SEUCK School tips (or some of your own ideas) into your games, use the KickAssembler, SEUCK Redux framework or do whatever you like to the game to make it stand out. However, you must prove that the game was made in SEUCK. This can be done by sending the SEUCK All Data file or raw version of the game along with the enhanced version.


Nucleo 448 used SEUCK Redux as a little collaboration project outside the SEUCK Compo.

Every entry will get music

Like with every C64 SEUCK Compo. Every entry that gets submitted will feature a piece of music on the title or in game music (please request title, in game or both when submitting). This year, I would like to do exclusive music for compo entries as a way to say a big thank you. If want to supply your own or friends's music for your production. Please feel free to do so.

Depending on the type of game's compatibility, The prize version of the game will be tested on SEUCK Redux (If suitable) and showed to the winner - if suitable the platform will be used. Otherwise the prize will be on standard SEUCK engine with additional enhancements. Either way this will include:

- Front end presentation with author's credits and music
- Additional in game enhancements where necessary
- Hi Score table (depending on the game type)
- Full digital tape master with loading picture by an active C64 graphican and music mastered with TapeToolBuild, Tape Master Pro or Freeload (The winner will get to pick the loader they would like to use) :)
