I was browsing some piano tutorial and came across a song that sounded oddly similar. It's clearly not the same song but there's something common between them. Funnily enough the song is about pirates and this is also a "pirate" song. Coincidence? .. See video 4jQ7Rolx-lw - it's called "he's a pirate" - i'm not sure where the song is from though.
Well, I love the tunes of Galway, Hubbard, Tel, Daglish, Joseph, Ouwehand and all the others, but Enlightenment is THE one that has been touching my soul since i first heard it in Fairlight's cracktro for Octapolis. I remember playing the bassline on my bass guitar over and over again, for hours. A piece of music that will go down in history and that will never be forgotten.
Det var en gang en pølse, som het Jon Pølse. Han var en ganske ensom pølse, fordi han likte pølse. Så når han så en annen pølse, tenkte han "Nam pølse!"
This is the exact same music player and data used in the FLT intro, but this version uses a variable in zeropage to modulate the bassline, and the FLT intro ignores this.
This was the first game I ever had the privilege of owning, sketched into the memory of a 6 year old kid is the choice from whopping two (2) games in the local electronics store, between this one and some flight simulator. I chose Enlightenment ;)
The sound of the C64 speaking the worlds "Enlightenment" when the game finally loaded, the creepy images of zombies in the manual, the horrible difficulty and not having any idea what to do in the game == nostalgia :)
I owned this game for c64 but my friends amiga version was a lot better looking so we preferred to play the amiga version in our sessions. I enjoy this c64 intro adaptation more than the amiga version. Anyways I posted the amiga intro music along with the complete gameplay here on youtube.
awesome game, scored high as i remember.

Wow, I had many cracked games from Fairlight in the 80s, and today was the first time I realized the music wasn't theirs.

This reminds me of some of the dungeon music from Ultima III-V on the C64.

Good music while playing Minecraft, if you don't know what Minecraft is google it, it's worthwhile.

Need to correct myself. It's not an adaptation, it's a whole different song.
