Help with Manic Miner
Posted: Sat Sep 29, 2018 12:38 am
Hi all
i have try to post some question on FB regarding Manic Miner, no luck so fare so i thought i also better try a forum.
i have copy my post from FB (not the best at english) to save me some time
My short story why i have add to this group/forum, i never own a ZX Spectrum. but one of my good friends("Flemming") had a 16k model. so i have use it a lot for gaming and coding. one of the first game Flemming bought was Manic Miner.
i am in the process of remaking Manic Miner for the Atari ST. and i have not use a single line from the original game, since its a remake. i only reach around the Retrun of the Alien KB level on the Speccy and MSX.
I not 100% sure that my engine is 100% correct.
I am also knowing that some of you, probably shouts blasphemy for doing this i know that the speccy version is the best version of the game .
so i have tried to keep in the same spirit, i have kept the original sprites just color them, but i have change some element of the game, add a high score routine, also change how the crushing food work i will also change some of the game graphic, since there more ram on the ST.
Ok here is my first question, i hope you can help guys , what happen if you hit the spider web, NOT the Spider but the web, do you die, or do you get right through
my second question
if you are standing over with the Skull can you get back on the ladder?
i really hope some can help me out here, i would appreciate it a lot
Best Regards
Peter
