|  Interesting find --Mushroom Mania
Hiya all,
I was going through my single cassettes yesterday to rescan them all in. I came across a very interesting game called "Mushroom Mania", published by Arcadia Software in 1983. But I can't find a record of it published for the C16 anywhere on the web. See the scan below for further details..

Does anyone else have a copy of this?

Just read this post, must have missed it 
On topic *** I was going to make a tap file of the tape but one of my cats has decided it would be fun to chew through it There are two files on the tape. 1st is a loader, 2nd is the game itself. I've copied the files to disk, but the loader file seems to only want to use the tape. I'll email a copy of the d64 to you and see if you can figure a way to get it working

The loader code reads as this:
99 PRINT"LOADING MUSHROOM MANIA PLEASE WAIT"
100 POKE55,0:POKE56,32:CLR
110 FORI=0TO16:READA:POKE12288+I,A:NEXT
120 SYS12288
1000 DATA169,1,162,1,160,255,32,186,255,169,0,32,213,255,76,0,32
Once run it loads of the tape, is there a way to change this to load the file off disk?

Not a problem I have also emailed Csabo a copy of the cover scan for the site.
Also I found a game a while ago called Mad Maze, until recently I didnt realise it was a commercial release. So I have added it to this database and emailed Csabo cover scan, game screens and the prg file
Regards,
Chris

For the time being, I've removed the release date of 1983, as there's no way it could have been released for a 1984 computer back then
FYI, the 1983 date refers to the Oric-1 version, which was the original release. The words 'Commodore 16' are printed on covering stickers

And take a look to the other program Pasta Blasta from Arcadia Software. Pasta Blasta contains as start screen the same screen as Mushroom Mania ...
