What a unique game! Over the years, we collected some interesting pieces of information, but with you (Jeva) here, I'm sure you have some more interesting things to add... How long did the development take? Who wrote the music? Who came up with the level design, the ideas for the hazards? Anything else you remember?

Don't forget Chronos' Let's Play video! happy

Annoyingly difficult, but a very beautiful game for its time. The fact that the background colour was light green gave it a unique feel.

@Csabo @Jeva shared some interesting facts about this game in the last Terror News

Annoyingly? grin

If I remember correctly it was all my idea. The blame is on me. wink The characters were taken from my favourite animated series of the time, which was being broadcast on Yugoslavian television ... I loved it. I also invented the obstacles, the game design. Mucsi and Batya wrote the code, I got a track editor - if I remember correctly it was some Petscii based stuff - and I produced and tested the levels, and then the others tried them out. The music here (like at Oliver) was Kabó aka Attila Bubreg.
The title screen was made in multibotti, and the elements were made on checkered paper and then hexed into the machine.
Sorry guys, but even today on normal iron, the game is still not difficult for me, and at the time it seemed too easy, I only recently found out that it is supposed to be very difficult. wink

I do believe you, but just double-checking about Kabo, since he's not mentioned anywhere in the program or on the cover. We should credit him! I know it wasn't a huge amount that the team got paid for the game, but regardless, he was okay for not getting a cut?

As I lived at the other side of the country, literally, I had no idea where the main protagonist was coming from. happy We did not have Yugo TV.

just because he was not credited does not mean he did not get a cut. wink

 Re: Dudaorrú Patric

@jeva if you're referring to Kabo: added in the credits since the time in which the truth has been revealed, and the relative files of the music have consequently been moved to a generic /games folder to /kabo wink

 Re: Dudaorrú Patric

Yey, what an epic game! And it was hard wink But I tried, and tried and tried...
Since we could not pronounce the Hungarian title, we even gave it a different German title and everyone of my friends was laughing out loud when I said, let's play it!!

 Re: Dudaorrú Patric

Not really. I just quickly made a tape cover for myself until the game came out, but if I remember correctly we sent the final game version to Novotrade in this box with this cover and got it back later.
