Under4MHZ Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Move the boulders and collect the diamonds. Collect all the diamonds to move to the next level. Press fire button to retry the level. Can you finish all 50 levels? Pitman-COL-1.00.zip 12 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Thank you once again for your incredible generosity to the community. You should consider contacting CollectorVision to have all your games assembled onto a MegaCart PCB and offered in CIB form. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rietveld Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Fun and challenging. It reminds me of the old DOS game PAGANITZU. Thank you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikrananka Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Wow - thank you. I love these type of puzzle games as they provide a nice relaxing alternative to all the frantic shooters. Reminded me of a homebrew Commodore 64 game that I'm currently playing "Millie and Molly" (currently on level 75), which I have now discovered was itself inspired by the mid 80's game Catrap which was known as Pitman in Japan. Is your Pitman a port/conversion of the original Catrap/Pitman with the same levels? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikrananka Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Encountered a strange graphical glitch on the title screen using the CoolCV emulator. Tried it on blueMSX and ColEm with no issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zyzzle Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Thanks so much for all of your games... These gifts are so very much appreciated! This game is like a mixture of Lode Runner and Boulder Dash, with Digger thrown into the mix. Fabulous! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikrananka Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 (edited) Wow - and Under4MHZ has also ported the game to the ZX Spectrum. I wish I was even half that productive ? I guess I'm too easily distracted by reading posts on AA and watching YouTube videos ? Edited May 25, 2021 by Ikrananka 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phattyboombatty Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Super cute and fun game! A little boulder dash, a little of Pixelboys epic Boxxle! Thanks @Under4MHZ for your amazing work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiLic0ne t0aD Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Awesome! Love me some Boulder Dash, which this reminds me a lot of and that's definitely not a bad thing. Definitely looking forward to trying this out. ? Thanks for sharing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckH Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Great game and thanks for sharing it. Remindful of Boulder Dash. Even has some of the same sounds. Currently on level 30 but I have to admit that I haven't figured out level 20 yet. I like that you can skip around to different levels if you want and not have to start over. Excellent.

roots.genoa Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Pitman is a 1985 Japanese game fyi. It was ported to the Game Boy as Catrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was an original game. Either way, it's still fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While a good game on GameBoy, I prefer the ColecoVision version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
