Bought that game 2017 in Nimega fair. Really enjoy it. Thank you for sharing!

Hope you all enjoy the game.
But as some additional information we are not planning to remove it from download after the pandemic but it we wil keep it free for download!

so enjoy!

#stayhome and #staysafe!

Ohhh, thank you for sharing your game with all of us. I will try it.

cool

what are the controls?

Up-Soft is, AFAIK, Richard Bosch and Raymond Hoogerdijk. Both were also active MSX-NBNO members. But there were also other people in MSX-NBNO like Maico Arts and Mari van den Broek. Richard is part of Surrec as well, but I don't know who else is.

Get on top of any icon that repeats two or three times in a row, and while holding down the space key, press one of the cursor keys for select the same icons, then loose the space key.

No, it's not a turboR game. It works fine here on a Sony HB-F700P with MSX-DOS2 and FM-PAC/MusicModule.

As you need DOS2, the 8245 with 1MB is not enough. Add DOS2 and it will work.

There seems to be a problem on turboR with R800 mode.

Try with your ATA-IDE on the 8245 with MMM and boot with DEL key pressed. I guess it works. Loading can take a while though.

I once bought the game, never got it to run cuz the disk was broken, but I do not remember having had a manual with it.

Surrec also included the Reemeyer brothers. One of them, Qix, was the one who wrote the music. He also made the music for Thunderbirds are Go and Find-it.

Thank you for the scans Hamlet, but nothing to do.

The manual says 64kb ram 128 vram, then no need extra RAM.
Typing START /? the downloadable version it's 1.000 from 2004 (may it's not the last because Settings option it's disabled)

I leave it for impossible, thanks anyway to yustmenl for the gift

@hamlet thanks i wil put this manual on the website aswell

The link between Up-soft and surrec you found is correct, i was part of Surrec together with Paul Reemeijer and Martijn Reemeijer. after a while Mari van den Broek also helped out with some discs.

about the boot problem, i never heard it before i had it running some time ago on my 8280.
it schould be able to work on an MSX2 that is how it was sold and tested.

@juanmi we also released a game last year in Nijmegen called Catch the bomb. and we are currently working on something else(but due to Corona there is no progress at the moment)

I know the reason why it is not working. This disk image is coming from the CD-version. The Settings menu option is also disabled in this version. I will make an updated disk image which will be published soon. The game should run on a standard MSX-2 with 128K memory.

Hey, look at photo #37! http://www.grauw.nl/articles/msx/oss2005/#photo37
That's an Italian magazine and I heavily contributed to that article ;-) I'd never though that magazine arrived till MSX Oss 2005!

Thanks raymond and yustmenl. Now Settings option it's enabled, but still I can´t load the game :/

I think Manuel has reason about 256kb. I tried with external 1MB but happens the same that CD version. The game hangs up before "Loading data". Without external RAM, hangs up at "Loading data..."

Maybe the game only find the internal ram and crash with external one. My 1MB ram it's the Musical Memory Mapper.
