Skramble versions
Posted: Sat Jun 08, 2013 2:50 pm
Hi everyone!
I was creating a cas file from my Skramble tape and noticed a funny thing. The version in the archive (the one marked as underdumped), has the old text-mode loading screen from Microdeal, and is (c)1983, but my version, despite the tape being (c) 1983, has the new graphical Cuthbert loading screen and is (c) 1984.
The game seems to have no difference.
I'll put the link to both versions later today along with the scans in the wiki page.
Another funny thing is that the name of the game is spelled "Skramble" on the inlay and the tape, but when the game is loaded on the computer, it is spelled "Scramble".
Does anybody have the 1983 version and could do a wav dump just to have both versions correctly dumped? Is the casette inlay the same?
And, have anyone encountered a similar situation with other games?
