Hi all, I'm sure I remember having an 8-colour graphics/text mode pacman clone (i.e. in that weird undocumented gfx mode), but can't remember its name, anyone know or ideally have a copy to upload as cas or wav ?

Hello,

I seem to remember a game running in semigraphics 24 mode, which was published as a listing in an issue of "Dragon User". I couldn't tell which one, though, but I guess someone else will know. But I cannot remember whether it was a "Pac-Man" or a "Nibbler" kind of game...

"Ghost Attack" fits the description...

"Flee!" was in Dragon User but uses 12-line Semigraphics 6.

Edit: both are in the download section!

I'll try Ghost Attack as a "G" seems to ring a bell, but I don't think that's it - I think the game concerned was single word name.

Was it called "Grabber" or something like that ? (I'm pretty sure it was mode24)

Mystery solved - I remembered the name and there it was in the downloads - "Cyclops" (from Romik Software) 8-)
