Phew! I have to say that dumping this one turned out to be a real bitch...

But not enough to stop me from dumping it, hehe

It has a weird custom loader, that makes the relay click after each block is loaded and is quite picky when it comes to the lead pulses length.

As usual, I tested it on Xroar and a real Dragon.

Anyway, you'll find the game attached to this post and the game page here.

P.S. Sixxie, I think it would be interesting to record the relay sound and emulate it on Xroar (other emulators are welcome to do so too), when the "-no-tape-fast" flag is enabled. It adds an extra touch of the real thing to it


Edit:I almost forgot to comment that the .CAS structure is different from the other two dumps here in the archive. And one question, did the original version by Tom Mix Software get published, or only the licensed Microdeal version?

Yes. Almost all of the Microdeal publications were conversions of Tandy CoCo games which had prevously been released in the US.

Thank you very much!

I second this request, as I also miss the relay click when using an emulator.

Heh, sounds like I need to borrow a mic.

I can record it for you
