I did a little searching and found a short YouTube video and some posts about how this game never made it to cartridge. Didn’t find any instructions or a manual yet. It seems to have some depth. Maybe we can figure out a bit more with a few days left in the month.

Although it didn't make it to cartridge, it was one of the titles you could program into a ROMOX cartridge at one of their cartridge kiosks. I suspect a manual did exist for those users who bought it that way, but one never knows, as the stores may not have provided manuals for any of the titles in their equipment just to keep costs down. I wonder if Kyle knows, as he saw a few of them in use BITD. I'll have to ping him on that (unless he actually shows up here in the near future--which would be a good thing).

Just one more thought about Cave Creatures, before announcing the march's game. There's a couple of things I still don't understand:

  1. when you kill an enemy it transform into a ... coloured dot (?). As anyone playing the game has noticed, the color of the dot defined it's behavior when hit. But what determines the color of the dot the hit enemy transforms into? Is there a rule, or is it random?
  2. From time to time one of the enemy turns into a ... sprite, and moves directly towards the player. Is there a rule that determines when this happens, or is it random?

 

Any idea or comment is welcome!
