[c64] Night Shade (1985)

I've cut the video down to 3min just to show some features of the game. I played this longer than I should have because I wanted to find a boss. I could find these as a kid, but not now for some reason. The bosses are those monsters at the bottom of the screen. I'm sure I've found at least the skeleton and the scythe monster before. I can't remember how these are found :(

The area will loop If you travel long enough to a certain direction. Four different types of ammo can be used to metamorph creatures into weaker ones which can be destroyed with any type of ammo, but the creatures can copy themselves if shot with wrong ammo. The game plays slow, but at least you can speed up by collecting a weird looking item.

Hey I remember playing this when I was really little, did it have Music? cos Im sure that I liked the music tune for it and im trying to find it.

There's three 3-5 second short melodies in the sid-file for the game, but not actual music. Two of these melodies are included in this video.

Gosh, yes it does play slowly doesn't it? Ultimate's C64 games were nothing like as good as the ir Spectrum games. Thanks for posting though, as I'd never have seen it running otherwise!

But im sure there was music at loading the game, maybe im wrong cos I was under 6 when I used to watch my sister playing it.
