+therealbountybob Posted January 6, 2015 Author Share Posted January 6, 2015 The more Zador you play the more you get used to the tiles; key is to give them silly names you know tank, potato with a fish The special tiles pair up in groups so you discover these over time, often when using the Help (press H if you are stuck in game).... I've added more Zador links, info, video etc to the first post - KE Soft's web site has have a revision B of Zador so will download that to see what's what. Couldn't seem to run the game on Altirra but is ok on real hardware. First tables tomorrow, Have Fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powersoft Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 @TRBB: ZADOR II is the same but different. It is the totally same game, but plays different. It starts with smaller level size and getting harder really soon with the time limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKong Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Had my first serious go on Yoomp. Played for a while the other day and couldn't get into it. Didn't think I was going to like it, but just had a longer go and now I've got used to the way it plays I like it a lot Level 8 5336 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam242 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Zenji - 9490 Zador - 1080 I'll get better at this when I start remembering which tiles pair with non-identical tiles! @trbb - that old 910 score is not a level one score - it's my old overall.

8BIT 1337 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 (edited) New Yoomp high score for me: 9442 I just thought of something yesterday: couldn't the slower speed of the PAL version give users in Zador an advantage? I can barely scrape through the first level (admittedly that's because I'm still not entirely sure how all the special tiles match up so I make it harder on myself). But it looks like I'm the only NTSC player to do so so far, which seems odd. Just a thought - I'll check out the newly updated info on the main post for sure.

I did wonder about this - often timer based games have serious differences between the systems... NTSC guys may have to resort to the emulator for Zador but I didn't seem to get it to run on Altirra?

8BIT 1337 Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 New Zador Score: 1860. And yes, that was using PAL instead of NTSC. You definitely have *way* more time on PAL vs NTSC. I made it to level 3 on my second game (and I can *barely* get through the 1st level when I play NTSC). I was running Atari800 in Linux. Looks like it will run on Atari800Win 4.1 as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
