OldSchoolRetroGamer Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 I saw the screenshots of Mr. Do! Run Run, I don't like it, Was there ever a commercial or homebrew or shareware or any port of Mr. Do! for the ST? One like the Arcade or even the 8 bit Atari computers?

OldSchoolRetroGamer Posted August 21, 2011 Author Share Posted August 21, 2011 I found a cool Mr. Do! clone for AMIGA called BOB's Garden. It was a PD game. Anything like that on ST? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 There appears to be an 8-bit version which plays on the XEGS according to a video posted on YouTube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you misinterpreted, I am aware of the 8 bit version, want to know if there is anything like it in any form for the ST.........

Not aware of any Mr. Do clones, but there is a pretty good Dig-Dug clone called Dugger. http://lowresmag.wordpress.com/2010/05/15/a-forgotton-classic-reviewed-dugger-for-atari-st/ http://www.atarimania.com/game-atari-st-dugger-herbie-stone-in_9184.html Dugger (1988)(LinEL).zip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+wood_jl Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Not aware of any Mr. Do clones, but there is a pretty good Dig-Dug clone called Dugger. Thanks for that - never seen that one before! Looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks great. No problem. I just discovered this about 2 weeks ago myself. Not a bad game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSchoolRetroGamer Posted August 21, 2011 Author Share Posted August 21, 2011 Meh Dig Dug...totally different play mechanics, I hate that people always think these are practically same game, spend some time with both and you will see they are really much different.....

Charlie_ Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Meh Dig Dug...totally different play mechanics, I hate that people always think these are practically same game, spend some time with both and you will see they are really much different..... I'm only recently a ST user. I enjoy the system and I like that there is HUGE library of games. However, if you look to the ST for versions of the earlier games from the 8-bit era it is a bit disappointing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do realize that they are different games although there are some similarities in game play. I just wanted to give you the closest option available on the ST.

keitaro Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I saw the screenshots of Mr. Do! Run Run, I don't like it, Was there ever a commercial or homebrew or shareware or any port of Mr. Do! for the ST? One like the Arcade or even the 8 bit Atari computers? There was an unofficial port of Mr. Dig (a clone of Mr. Do for Atari 8bit computers): http://www.atari.st/view.php?id=1130 But If you don't like Do! Run Run (I should give a chance!), I don't think Mr. Dig would be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
