Unfortunately the Demo Version don't work with "Speccy 5.9"-Emulator at all. After pressing Space in the Title screen the message "Stop the tape and press any key" appears on the scren, but after doing that, the screens stays black with a grey border (tested with a 128KB machine). Too bad! We would have liked to show it in our next livestream on Saturday. 🙁
Hi! You can use another emulator that is more compatible with real hardware.
The files of ZX Spectrum Next are missing. There is just only the ZX Spectrum files in many laguages. That´s all.
Just checked. There ARE the Next version game in the archive. I really have no idea, what you're talking about. There's a folder called NEXT.
Excellent game. I also added it to my new "Gameplay of New ZX Spectrum Games from May 2024" video.
Here is my tribute to this game - so glad I brought it. A subscribe would be most welcome from any new viewer.
Fantastic game! My 1st play and review
Guys, can you help Mike to make the Next version working on CSpect emulator?
This is what he said when I asked him about it.
"okay... I see it. I'm not sure this is something I can do on my own. It would require the creator to debug the specific areas and let me know what's different. Otherwise.... I'd have to debug the whole game, and figure out the entire thing to even find the routines, never mind what'd wrong.
If they want to debug inside CSpect and figure out what's not working, I'll be happy to address it.... but without them, I'd be looking for a needle in a haystack."
The game does not work in newer versions of CSpect because bit 2 of register #22 does not turn off the original ULA interrupt. That's the main reason. In the old version of CSpect V2.12.36 this works properly, you can play the game in it.
The second point is related to copper co-processor, sound effects are not playing correctly because of this. So far they are not reproduced correctly in any version of CSpect.
Thanks. I will pass your message to Mike.
Awesome work as always. although trying the TRD version it kept crashhing
If you are using Spectaculator, remember to allow writing to a floppy disk.
Brutally hard game but rewarding at the same time. Here is my 1st 1/2 hour trying the game. Thanks, TJ
Please tell me there's going to be a physical release? ❤️❤️
I hope so too.
I am looking for people for a co-op bundle

I just noticed v1.1 being released. What are the changes?
minor changes that improve overall performance
Amazing game, even better than part one. Great job!
Complimenti sinceri, un capolavoro con pochi eguali nella storia dei videogames per Spectrum Scorpion e Pentagon !!!!!
Io uso x80 per Amiga sotto Winuae, e' fantastico molto meglio di qualunque altro emulatore per pc.....
Ironico vero ??!!
Eterna vita al Kempston....infatti uso i tasti cursore e il tasto backspace per l'azione e space per il jump...!
If you enter the password for level 3 in the tap version, you are told it is a incorrect password...
Yes, that's right, because you don't enter the password to "load" the desired level, but to "skip" the level (don't forget you're dealing with tape) i.e. first you enter the first password, load the second level, and enter the second password, and load third level.
Okay, I get it - It is not possible to go directly to level 3 with password, you have to load level 1 and 2 first. Why is there no level skip password in the TRD version ?? Thanks for the game, it is a much bigger game than the first one, and seems to be everything the first game could have been if it were not rushed to be finished for the ZX-Dev competition!
Thank you!
In trd and next versions password is not needed, because after passing the level the game saves state to disk, so you can continue the game from the same level after turning off the computer.
There is still something weird with the tap file. I have the same problem in both Spectaculator and Fuse: Both passwords loads level 2. Level 3 can not be loaded with password, and when completing level 3 the ending does not load.
Just checked in Spectaculator and Fuse, I have everything working correctly, levels and ending are loading.
Thanks!
Any chance of releasing the Speccy version as a single release?
Another fantastic game, congratulations to everyone involved.
Hey guys, any chance of a split so us real hardware guys can just buy the ZX version for a fiver etc?
V.1.1 still unplayable on CSpect😭on ZEsarUX after a while also becomes unplayable..
This is a problem with emulators. It works without problems on real hardware.
No doubt, it's message for people like me, who only have emulation option, to warn them, not to purchase, and first try if Demo works correct.
Would it be an option to include a Windows version with all versions included like you did with Delta's Shadow?
А на zxonline.net она будет? А то здесь проблема оплатить.
Нет, не будет. Купить можно здесь: https://boosty.to/sinc_lair/posts/2f7b5ec0-9fed-4fac-89e9-588ea7b443dc?share=pos...
thanks a lot
