Re: The RZX Request Thread

Finally finished "V", a game I've wanted to see completed for years. Many thanks to [mention]Bandit[/mention] for his help with this! In particular his guide for helping to reveal the codes to unlock the doors.

Re: The RZX Request Thread

Con-Quest can be ticked off from the list. Finally finished an rzx of this pretty difficult game, with an equally difficult control scheme. Not one I want to visit again in a hurry...

Re: Delta's Shadow

I agree, it would be great if you could jump by pressing up. I read a comment from one of the team: There are separate jump and fire buttons so you can direct which way you want to fire. For example pressing up and fire fires your boomerang upwards. You wouldn't be able to do that if up was jump.

Re: Friday Quiz - Name That Tune, Part Two

A "cryptic" clue for 16: This remarkable contracting globe.

Can't really give a cryptic clue for 27. It's an arcade conversion. Juan was close with his earlier reply: "It sounds an early game to me, a space shooter or so..."
