howerton Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I recently purchased hang on for the coleco. The controls for shifting up and down do not work. I will try this game out on my Adam soon. Does this have something to do with the particular console I have or can it be fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digress Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 button 2 to accelerate. up on control stick lowers gear , down raises to higher gear and once going fast enough down to go from low to mid gear and once going fast enough again down to go to high gear. top speed is around 300 km/h Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howerton Posted May 7, 2020 Author Share Posted May 7, 2020 I can shift in to hi but I cannot shift down once I am in high. And the level select on the title screen constantly changes form level 1 to 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howerton Posted May 7, 2020 Author Share Posted May 7, 2020 I got the game running on my Adam just fine. Thank you for your help. My colecovision is obviously on the fritz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it feel better than, say, using the fire button to accelerate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There aren't too many into-the-screen racing games on the CV. Unless you count The Fall Guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
