| Lode Runner +4
Kichy of ASN Crew just dropped a bombshell of a release on us: Lode Runner +4 is here! The classic game finally makes it to our platform. What makes a good game is ultimately the gameplay and this one is up there with the best. It's fast-paced platformer fun. The unpredictable enemy A.I. makes for a challenging gameplay. You have 150 levels to go through, but just in case that's not enough, there's a built-in level editor!
This is a pristine conversion, flawlessly executed, works on NTSC machines... What more could you ask for? Big respects to Kichy for bringing us this amazing game!

Amazing job. I guess that nasty irreproducable bug could be ironed out finally then?

I love this release. I don't know who I should praise more: the original developers for making an awesome game, or Kichy for doing the faithful conversion and making it happen. I guess they both deserve the credit.
Can I please pick the game to be converted next? I got my eyes on Newcomer
Bottom line: the scene could do with more stuff like this.

That's the way to do it. Don't waste time on talking and other nonsense, just Do It. Lead by example.

Bah, personally I reached a point in which I could both keep the mouth closed about an incoming release _or_ moan all the time enriching the forum by new topics

I tihnk a fantastic idea would be to make GTW games. There's a few on the list.

There's also not a really decent footie game. Indoor Soccer being about the best we have. Kick-Off or International Soccer anyone?
Bruce Lee would be good too.

Tynesoft was the reason is was not good!
Jetpac was released on VIC-20, tho I never played it.
I played the ZX Spectrum version.

That's a pretty nice game as well, dynamic gameplay. It could probably be converted/remade on the Plussy. There are so many old Spectrum games that are awesome...

Yeah, Spectrum games could make up for the crappy HW with excellent gameplay. Which reminds me that the person who ports AticAtac to the plus/4 will receive a crate of beer from me.
