crazy foota 3 by orange

I got round to copying this game, which is apparently missing from the archives. It is in wav form, and like my last submission (in the dragon general forum) directly recorded from a very old cassette recorder. I did use a number of other cassette playing machines to see if I could improve the quality- they all sounded better to the ear but when copied back to tape failed to load. So I went back to the cassette recorder. I made a new tape from the wav and it loaded fine into a real dragon 64. It will probably need cleaninging and the left side noise removed as last time in order for it to be loaded into XROAR (since I do not use XROAR I cannot check it.......)

I can provide images of the packaging if people want, but it is the usual orange software style- copy of the instructions you get on screen, cloadm to load etc
It is coco compatable according to the label...........
The game, FWIW, is not really very good for it's time, although the music is rather nice. If it were an early release circa 1982 it would probably been lauded as splendid, but post Shocktrooper, Mandragore et al it has a hard time looking good. I have no idea if the game is related to crazy foota 2, as that is by a different company. It certainly is not indoor football.
