IRF Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) These screenshots are from the Micro (12 room) JSW game that accompanied Andy's 'loader builder' guide. I thought they deserved a bit of an airing, since we did something a bit different with The Banyan Tree pair of screens (progress further up and beyond to Under the Roof was forbidden!) It provides a nice little puzzle (Willy has to go 'up and over' to collect the upper Banyan Tree item), it allows the Bit of Tree Bird guardian to have a wider flight path, and it means that the Blue 'Water' cells are restricted to the tree's root system, which seems more logical than the classic screen arrangement!

IRF Posted June 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) I should add that the leafy platforms on the far left-hand side of A Bit of Tree are just for aesthetic purposes, to give the top of the tree a nice shape, but are Forbidden Holy Ground - Willy can't jump onto them without falling a fatal distance. Thus Willy cannot exit leftwards from that screen (or indeed from Banyan Tree, because of the Fire cell 'steps').

Spider Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 I agree its nice to give it a bit of an 'airing' as such. :) The original 'builder' did not have a game at all, it was merely an almost empty tape file with just a small bit of assembly to print a message.
