A short and sweet game that is a port of a recent Amstrad title. It's good fun and was nice and straightforward to patch. The game already plays from HD, but doesn't degrade the system if you're using RTG screenmodes etc. so there's at least some point to having it under WHDLoad. While patching I found two cheats! Level Select + Invincibility: - Go to the Information screen, 3rd page - Type '6031769' (same code as Manic Miner!) and "Cheat Activated!" will appear in the middle of the screen - The player is now invincible, and a level select is shown when starting - You can type '6031769' again to disable the cheat Gender Change - Go to Redefine Keys, and set your keys to W, I, Z, R and D in that order - The gender of your character will switch from female -> male or vice versa I've included an option to disable saves between levels. If you're like me and use NOWRITECACHE, you'll keep getting stalls while WHDLoad does an OS swap to save. I don't personally mind that but some people might, so the option is there just in case! Settings + scores are always saved whenever you go back to the title screen. If you cheat, then only settings are saved. Enjoy! :-) Greetings to Codetapper, Wepl and all the WHDLoad team! -- DJ Mike (5th February 2023) ________ ________ ________ ____ ________ ________ _) \_) \_) \_) \_) \_) \ __ ___ /___/ / /_____/\ / / / / / / / /_//__// \___ / / /CT\/ / / / / / / /___/ /___ / / /_____/___ /___/ /___ __ \____/ \____/ \____/ \____/ \____//__//_/ Bug report form, full WHDLoad package and other installs: http://www.whdload.de/ THIS PACKAGE COMES WITH ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE.
