 Bobby Bearing +7DGMF 101% (NTSC/PAL)

Bobby Bearing screenshotBobby Bearing is an isometric action-adventure game released by The Edge in 1986 for the Sinclair Spectrum. It was ported to the Amstrad CPC and Commodore 64 by Trevor Inns. Originally converted to our little machine by Ceekay and Plasma in just two days in 1990, but it was unplayable due to several critical game breaking bugs. So we (Csabo, Siz, Kichy and Me, Chronos) fixed it and put some extras in it.

Enjoy!

Still can't decide if I like the most the release itself – congrats, guys! – or the usual raw irony I sustain since years and that seems to find no real end.

Yep, it's definitely all fixed up, even better than the C64 version. IMHO fixing the colors (compared to the first conversion) is the biggest step forward, as it helps the navigation.

The only thing we're missing now is a properly colored map... If you're like "I'm on this blue screen, and I just came from a yellow one, where the heck is that" - the map is no help. Is anyone with some Photoshop skills up for some re-colouring of the current one? grin

@George when you drag into the YAPE window a D64 image, the emulator loads the very first program in the directory, which is the Fast Load CMS V2.2.

Ok, map recoloured. I've found one room different in color compared to the Spectrum version.

@Chronos: it is a fantastic release, though I lost my patience at a certain part I go upwards several screen long, then I fell down (if I remember well; I lost my sanity happy )
