ZX SPECTRUM SHADOWFAX 16K

[beanz991]

Mike Singleton had already written Lords of Midnight BEFORE this, but didn't release it as he thought the world was not ready for it.

[SPINNYFUCK]

Now that, I can believe! He should have made this the sequel and called it 'A Lord of Rubbish'! A lesser known fact is, Clive Sinclair had invented the 128K before the 48K but couldn't release it until programmers got better.

Great stuff!! Who sings the song and what's it called?

[SPINNYFUCK]

The song is 'White Horses' sung by Jacky. A hit in 1968.

[YouCanBumAnyone]

An excellent video and great choice of song!!!

Commodore version was from left to right, and it also had trees... Does this game have an end? THe instructions said you'll finally reach to a castle

[SPINNYFUCK]

This is the first time I've played it and I don't have any instructions. I will have a look through the code to see if there is an end message. It's probably a castle made of sand!

[SPINNYFUCK]

Doesn't seem to be any indication of an end message in the code. Pity really. It makes the whole game seem pointless!

That was my conclusion after about 15 minutes of relentless galloping. Maybe the C64 version was actually finished before it was released... ;)

[SPINNYFUCK]

I'm surprised you stuck with it for 15 minutes! That's 12 and a half minutes more than me...lol!

[mathowlett]

I wanted my £1.99 worth !!! ;)

So somebody somewhere still owes me £1.94

[SPINNYFUCK]

You got it cheap! This was £6.96 or maybe a pound more on original release. What a con! No wonder it ended up in a bargain bucket. A pile of shite!

[mathowlett]

YAY !!!!!! Thanks for making that. Great stuff. What a pile of old crap.

[SPINNYFUCK]

Thanks for asking. I didn't know this game. Nice animation with the horses. Can't understand why it took two guys to write it though!
