MM Halloween

[Spider]

To quote from the Central Cavern FB group:

Last year I released a special Manic Miner Halloween mod for my kind patron supporters. This year, to save me from tears, I'm giving both versions away for free to all you someone specials who have a Next or ULAplus compatible machine. It will also run on emulators that support ULAplus. it's a flashlight mod that comes in two flavours and also features some classy AY Halloween music converted by Pedro Pimenta.

A couple of pics from both versions:

Plays nicely enough. Based on the Bug-Byte code. I used the cheat to quickly get a few screenshots.

I was not able to get ULAPlus to function properly in Spectaculator nor ZXSpin with either version so I used Zero to get the pictures.

This looks like a neat concept! To get ULAPlus working, they recommend you use the Es.pectrum emulator:

Thanks. 🙂 I wanted to do a mini video but Zero did not appear to support that, at least the version I had to hand.

I think from memory Spin does work quite well for it (really) but you need a control file loaded. 🙂

Not sure why the loader is as it is, to be fair its the sort of thing I sometimes do 🤣

I will fire it up on my Next at some point and give it a whirl ... thanks for flagging it up Andy!
