HYBRIDSID - EMULATED CPU,
REAL SID CHIP
*************************************

Loading...

This is kind of a hybrid between an emulated and a hardware SID Player. The
CPU and CIA stuff runs emulated on a PIC32 and the sound is generated by a hardware SID chip.

Detailed explanations, pictures, schematics, and the firmware can be found here: http://dangerousprototypes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=56&a...

Have fun,

REVIEW: CLONE
C16/Plus4 Game
By Commodore Free
*************************************

http://plus4world.powweb.com/dl/games/c/clone.prg

OVERVIEW

Skoro of the well known group Assassins has released "Clone", a logical game. It's based on the C64 version but this implementation is all his own work.

OBJECT

Match the left side of the board to the right. There are a few twists however, play it and see. The Objective of the game is to change the colour and arrangement of the tiles in the left side window, in order to match those in the right window.

The player can perform this by pointing and clicking a given tile space.

This action performs an on/off switching in the selected place and in the four nearby tiles ("cross EORing"); plus, any single tile's colour will rank down, complying the colour sequence you can see in the reminding column located in the centre of the screen. Beyond the lower ranking (YELLOW), a tile disappears,
leaving a blank tile space.

There's a time limitation to achieve any level, once you've finished to play, you can choose to start the next match in the last level you've faced before.

COMMODORE FREE

So Armed with a joystick, we load the game and are intro, pressing space takes us into the main game, on the right is the mach set, and on the left is our set, you need to match the set of tiles on right with your tiles that are on the left, do this by moving the joystick and clicking the button to change the tiles colour, the colour rotates matching the colour in the centre of the screen. Very frustrating to play, especially with the time limitations.

REVIEW

Arrrrrrr me young farmer laddo

Its time for you to round up the Sheep, and guide them into the pen, doing so will not only aid the farm but gain you points. The game seems to consist of you "a sheep dog" and the enemy "some sheep" you have to guide the sheep into the sheep pen once X amount have been gathered you are then guided to the next round where obstacles are included like a cat and Bird in level 2, hitting either will reduce your health, hit one twice and you will die.

The Music is by Richard Bayliss, not sure how it ties in with the theme on the farm, but it's a decent enough tune, I was expecting sheep style noises and
dog barks in the game however these are just musical sounds rather than
samples or sounds closely matched to dog barks, its more white noise really than anything.

The game is controlled via a joystick in port 2

And looks a lot like a SEUCK game although that may not be a bad thing necessarily!

So the joystick can move Left right up down this will move the sheep dog and pressing the fire button makes the dog bark; causing the sheep to scare and start to move, the idea is position yourself standing behind the sheep and pressing fire causing the sheep to move in the opposite direction. You can
move the sheep to steer them into the pen by pushing them up and down.

As the levels increase various obstacles hinder your progress, a wolf appears who will kill the sheep and it floats up to heaven, there is also a bird that drops its mess on you casing some damage. Because sheep are a little stupid they sometimes forget and start moving in the wrong or random directions.

The actual animation on the characters is very convincing the dog moves well and the various creatures that pop up like the swooping vulture and a mole popping up on later levels look very nice, the background isn't much to speak of although it's a field full of grass, some bits of grass are blowing in the wind. On one level it looks like some sort of toadstools are randomly placed, hitting on will kill you instantly, presumably dogs don't like magic mushrooms.
The whole game feels like a Mastertronic release from the 80`s, its playable and amusing for a while
