    Hi John. You should try playing a game of Postman Pat's Trail Game on the Commodore 64. It's a game based on the Children's BBC TV series, I swear.

    The reason why the game was freezing when I was pressing fire was because the Space Bar was assigned as pause. Why would anyone assign Space Bar as a pause key is a bit strange in my opinion. Why not use one of the function keys or say on the screen that Space Bar is a pause key or better still, have the option the change the pause kay. Space Bar probably would of been most peoples choice for a fire key.

  • @retroscener
    @retroscener Před 8 hodinami

    Space is assigned to Pause. Use another key for fire. It's a game changer. Because that was very frustrating to watch. The review feels unfair, with low marks undeservingly given due to this accidental oversight. It needs reevaluation with a fresh review. I personally give it 8/10. Because for a simple shooter, it's very unique. The sound is simple but very atmospheric. It gives a sense of panic. This needs a C64 port.

    • @John_B_Gage
      @John_B_Gage Před 4 hodinami

      What? Why would the programmer assign Space Bar for pause? That is a bit stupid if you ask me. The Space Bar would be most people's choice for a fire key. Also, if I can change the kays, why not have the choice to change the pause key or assign a pause key maybe as one of the function keys. Or say on the screen, Space Bar is the pause key. Sorry, I find that a bit stupid. Out of all the keys to use as a pause. Space Bar.

    The giant yellow bird on the cage eventually gets free. It moves through floors like a ghost, a relentless, malevolent, indestructible killer. When I first discovered this, I was transfixed with fear. I was only about 7. But the memory of that horrific discovery haunts me still.

    The best platform game ever? It's right up there at the top. The BBC/Acorn versions were the best in terms of gameplay, the CPC version was very, very close to it but had more colours and looked better. But that's splitting hairs really. Those three versions are the ones to play. All others were lacking. Especially the Spectrum version, which was the original version.

    • @newsbender
      @newsbender Před 22 hodinami

      One of the best of the micro era, certainly. From the 16-bit era it can't compare to the likes of Super Mario World, Rainbow Islands, New Zealand Story, etc.

    Had this on the Spectrum and I remembered the word Ganymede... it runs similar speed on the Amiga to Speccy, watching the walk throughs? Unless they are on souped up machines. Other than not being monochrome, the Amiga should have been leaps ahead.
