As per the other topic with the SAM Coupé version, I do hope this is OK here too. Again, provided for reference purposes.

Full playthrough of the game Manic Miner for Oric Atmos computers. This game published in 1983 become hit on the Sinclair Spectrum computers. The additional levels, excellent graphics and music with the pixel perfect jump and run gameplay makes it one of the best games for the Oric computer

Oric Atmos Longplay - Manic Miner.zip

Note: Unfortunately, this is the 'corrupted' version of the game that is "out and about" and the guardians and other sprites become badly corrupted from the 17th cavern onwards sadly. But even with that it is still worth a watch of this conversion. The Atmos hardware and capabilities are a little bit different!

That's a strange experience - not so much like watching a film in another language, as is often the case with conversions, as watching one in a weird dialect of your own.

Perhaps (after a bit of thought) as you say dialect it could be similar to how say a "not great" translation of a technical manual (old VCR manuals spring to mind here!) appeared.

Tis a 6502 based 'nearest to Speccy' machine though I think!
