Can I buy this on Cassette?
Awesome game ! Congrats my friend.
Awesome, thank you. 👍
Great game, thank you. I also included it in my new "Gameplay of New ZX Spectrum Games from October 2024" video, in addition to the other ZX Spectrum games released in October.
Great stuff.
Fantastic new version of the game, thanks. I certainly noticed it was more difficult, but I have a full walkthrough here :)
Bloody love the music, too! Upbeat track based on the ZX Spectrum loading audio, and without giving spoilers, that closing theme! :D
Nice one, cheers!
Yuo're very welcome. This one was great fun! :)
Nice game!
Great stuff, cheers! 👍
Many thanks for this, here is my tribute to this game.
Fantastic stuff. That was fun to watch. Cheers!
Hi,
Although I picked this up, a month or so ago. I am just getting round to playing it after being reminded by the review in CRASH this month.
Fantastic game, looks and sounds great. Even better is that I am getting much further than I ever did on Jet Set Willy.
Played it on my NEXT, but added to my anbernic handheld. It is great for hand held play, I can pick up and play easily.
Cheers
Marc
That's fantastic! Really glad you're enjoying it. It's tricky to balance the difficulty as we want it to be a challenge, but not too brutal to put people off. The Anbernic looks like a very cool device.
Good game. I also added it to my new "Gameplay of New ZX Spectrum Games from May 2024" video.
Thanks a lot!
Awesome game !
Nice! Cheers for that.
Took me a while to play it but you were there so you know whats coming anyway!
Best release you have done. This is not a question, it is a literal fact. Great sprite work, great gameplay and the music was perfect (once I pushed my stereo jack in all the way....) Absolute love for it mate, cannot wait for my tape :)
Cheers buddy!
Nice game! Our German-language review can be found in our recorded livestream starting at 03:37:58. English subtitles are also available. Subscription to our YouTube and Twitch channel is welcome. 🙂
Thank you.
I thought I'd try and figure out a potential speedrun route and got through it in 11m34s. Anyone care to improve on this? :-)
The gauntlet is set!!!
Brilliant stuff as always Sloanysoft. I really enjoyed it. Lovely little nod to 'If I was a rich man' in the music. :-) The fact you even made the map to be a Steamboat Willie is a lovely little touch too. (Or maybe I'm just seeing things!)
Incredible work! Yeah, you totally got Lee's brilliant nod to "If I was a Rich Man" & I did indeed intend the map to be a big Mickey face. :-)
Looking forward to you seeing you set the pace for speedruns of the game!!
I had a lot of fun with this one, thank you !
For anyone viewing a subscribe would also be most welcome !
Hehe that was brilliant to watch. Lovely stuff. 👍
very good
Thank you! 👍
Awesome game, and I made a full walkthrough, here! :)
Wow that was quick work!
Thanks. I started playing it, and realised it was a game I could actually complete, and before I knew it, it was done! :D
Crumbs. This is amazing. It's like watching a master at work!
You are far too kind! 😄
Terrific game. Really playable and fun. And so many good jokes. Well done you.
Thank you! Trust me that means a lot.
This is SO COOL.
Thank you. 😃
Nice game!
Sorry. Link corrected...Thank you! 😎👍
Nice one mate. I'm having a blast in this right now, at 2:30 in the morning :D
Awesome!! That's commitment. 😆
