I am using the colour PET version on my PET rebuild.
I was wondering if the colours on the High score page and the adjustment pages could be changed to something with more contrast from the background? The text is bare readable and some other colurs would be helpful.
I found a few bugs. One is where I could only shoot left by one character (the other directions seemed to still work), and it's crashed a couple of times.
Using keys, on a real PET 4032, with the full version. Here is an unlisted video of two lockups, and the strange shooting problem. I also put up a proper video earlier of me playing it normally with no problems.
Nice :-) Would it be possible to allow an option for the fire key to be '5' on the keypad? I think that would make it much easier to control. Maybe I should get one of the joystick adapters. I'm terrible at controlling games with keys.
edit: Actually, I've just realised you can get diagonals by pressing two of the other directions, so I can use one hand with my fingers on 8,6,4,2 and my left with space. That's much easier.

cool a.f.

I have video of both if they are any use.
Video would help as well as what controller you were using and machine model and if it was the demo or full game.

Video removed, as it seems to be fixed.
please try your luck with v1.1 and let me know if you have any mods to your hardware, or use a datasette.
Thanks. I've just been playing it for a while, and I didn't get a lockup or the shooting problem.
My PET is standard apart from I load from an SD2PET and I added a reset button.
I believe it was the IRQ, which runs behind the scenes. I tried a different approach in this game than I normally do.
Nice :-)

It could be done, yes.
