Hi! The disk version unfortunately has no menu, except for the regular disk menu - LOAD "$",8 and LIST - All the files are there, though. Thank you for the kind words!
Hi peacelover! Thank you for the nice comment. I do have to admit that the conversion is not as good as it should be - there are certain aspects of the original that I neglected to account for (wall bounce, iirc).
I do seem to recall I was able to finish the game during testing, but that could also be a false memory :)
I think this game could benefit from an online version with a level editor like the original. I heard mr. Rosen had an idea about that, wonder if he still wants to move on with the idea. It's an intriguing thought.
Thank you again, I have to check level 4 for inaccuracies.
Hi RoboCoppi. Thank you for the comments. Unfortunately, there is no editor for this version. And it's only for Windows, I'm afraid. The opportunity is open for another dedicated developer, I guess :)
Hi! Thanks for this tool, it's getting better all the time. One little tweak I'd love to see is to have only one space between the opcode and data, instead of two. Great work, it works really well!
Hi! Sorry, I have no idea what happened here. Anyway, it has been re-instated. The zip contains a CRT and a D64 file. Let me know what you think! Thanks.
Hi! Only Classic, or any other file as well? Thank you for reporting. I updated the d64, hopefully it works better. Please confirm if you have the time.
Hi Marc! Thank you for your kind comments. Yes, indeed - in my opinion it's the gameplay that makes the game Bruce. Any tampering would be disrespectful. :)
All characters can have CPU or joystick 1-4, but Bruce can of course not be CPU controlled. Ignore that, and it could be classified as simply laziness on my part. :)
Thank you! Yes, that's true, there is one difference: In the original game, Yamo and the Ninja just waited for Bruce if he was above them. In this one, I opted to let them roam free, increasing the chances that they'll respawn near him.
Thank you for the feedback. I didn't want to mess with the sprites or the characters' modus operandi, which is why there's no splats. The continue option is really for up and coming gamers, not hardcore old-timers. :)
That's lovely to hear, JJ - we're really happy that you enjoyed the game! Good luck in becoming a game designer - and maybe you'll even do some C64 games as well. :)
Hi petruza, we loved it too on the C64 :) - We used Lua for the game logic, SDL 2 for input, rendering and audio, and a custom engine to bind it all together. Maps were done using Tiled.
