Charlie_ Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Once again thanks for the conversion Classics! Keep them coming. I really like this game. I play it often but I can't get my trees through to the bottom. I always seem to die before I reach it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BydoEmpire Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I have this cart for my XEGS and it's my favorite game on the system. Nice to see the 5200 port, it's a blast. If the first level was designed to use the 5200 stick it'd probably control better on the 5200! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATARILUVR Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 This looks like a really neat game! Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CannibalCat Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Steve/Classics: is it ok to make a cart of this for personal use? And if so, do you have a binary without the initial splash screen you added to it? Just curious... thanks! Definitely my favorite A8 game of all time!

kiwilove Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Was there a story attached to this game? I seem to think I remember trogolytes being mentioned, and not ogres. Maybe my hazy memory is mixed up with a different game? Anyway I thought that story was entertaining and better than the usual.

Shannon Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I don't think the sound is initialized properly on this.. when running in an emulator the sound is all buzzy and messedup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everett1954 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 What was the first conversion and where to find it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRTGAMER Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Nice to see the 5200 port, it's a blast. If the first level was designed to use the 5200 stick it'd probably control better on the 5200! If I remember the game correctly, the joystick moved the wizard and holding the fire button changed control to the wizard spell cursor. The cursor movement could certainly benefit with 5200 trakball support. Movement could be bumped by the Trakball though more cumbersome. A compromise over the improved spell cursor trakball control.

Wrathchild Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 What was the first conversion and where to find it? Maybe have a go with the versions available on this thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shannon Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Thanks the v2 of Necromancer in the above mentioned thread fixes the sound issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
