Rybags Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 I had a phone call with someone about a week ago, and he mentioned he had a disk with "Rick Dangerous" for the Atari. Thinking it was for the ST, I just said "Don't worry" as it's readily downloadable on the 'net. He said he didn't think so, as it was a 5.25 inch floppy, so I got him to mail it to me and it arrived earlier today. It's playable, albeit a bit short and repetitive. Just load from DOS or a binary games loader, or run the XEX from the emulator. rickd.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rybags Posted April 11, 2008 Author Share Posted April 11, 2008 NES? Looks like our version will need some sprucing up then. I was going to do the pic in a high-colour mode but was feeling kinda lazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimsterAA Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 This works when I load it in an emulator, but I tried running it on my real A800 vie APE, and it loads and then just goes to a black screen and stops. Does this not work on a real stock 48K 800? --Timster-- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybags Posted April 14, 2008 Author Share Posted April 14, 2008 (edited) Worked fine for me on my 130XE - with or without BASIC enabled. It loads from $600-$6FF and $3000-$9FFF so should work with most DOSes and loaders. I've also put a capture of it on YouTube Edited April 14, 2008 by Rybags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miker Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 (edited) Is it supposed to be funny or at least interesting? The sound quality reminds me of so-called sampler made using TURBO 2000 mod for XC12 (but at least it was able to gather twice more sound-data as in your example).
