Lochjaw & Shark attack

[BSA Starfire]

Acording to atarimania there are some subtle differences between Lochjaw and Shark Attack, can anyone enlighten me as to what they are?

Thanks!

So it is just a label variation then? No difference in the actual game code.

Makes me wonder about the comment on the atarimania entry for lochjaw.

The roms are different. I think shark attack has a small bug fix.

Correct. Lochjaw has collision detection issues which cause you to get caught up on the maze walls. This was (mostly) corrected in Shark Attack.

Mostly corrected? It's still pretty bad if you asked me. I got caught up all the time.

Well, perhaps "somewhat" corrected is a better description.

Wonder if someone can modify this to play better or has someone already done it?
