Spider Posted April 23, 2021 Report Share Posted April 23, 2021 I wanted to show the differences of this vs the original with one combi pic of the first cavern. I do realise more is present however it does visually demonstrate some of the excellent work that went into this: Left : Original 1984 Release Right : Updated 2021 Release Immediate visual changes: Air bar hoziontal to match most other variants. Sane start frame for M.W Sane start position for horizontal guardian Status bar in a suitable colour Playing area expanded horizontally and moved down a little bit the screen to match (afaik) most other variants. Colours changed to match as close as reasonably possible the ZX variant. This is quite interesting as you've managed to use a few more colours than normally possible ie status bar is white. jetsetdanny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
