You may have a button on your gamepad or mouse that has seized up. Let's check it using the Command Line in the main menu:

1) to test the gamepad buttons, write in the Command Line: 

print in 31[enter]

should return 0.

2) to test the mouse buttons, write on the Command Line: 

print in 64223[enter]

should return 15.

Hi! Press "Space" key.

I don't think the problem is a specific zx max performance, the game doesn't use any cheats of the original hardware. I think the problem is some kind of base problem, like a memory fault.

Hi! No hangs have been reported for the current version at this time. Most likely there is some kind of hardware issue in your case.

Hi! Snapshots store information only about the current state of the Spectrum, it does not know about the tape from which it was loaded and from where to continue loading. If the whole game fits in the Spectrum memory (like the first part of Neoplasma), so there is no problem with it. But if additional downloads from the tape are required, the game just doesn't know where to get them from.

So there are two options:

1) pass all three levels at once without using saves. then at the end of the game you can register a QR code on the site to record your progress in the record table.

2) at the end of each level you are given a password, with the help of which you can skip this level next time. but then there will be no QR code at the end of the game, because the password is too small to encrypt the progress of the skipped level in it.

It's very sad that you didn't like this game. I really don't understand what "pixel perfect with jumps, shots and grenades" you are talking about. The level design is made for beginners players, with no special experience in platformers. Mostly players on the contrary complain about the lack of difficulty.

Hi! Thank you!

1) As far as I know, only SMD gamepad with 3 buttons. For emulator you can use some mapper app to map gamepad buttons to keyboard buttons.

2) Yes, that's the way it was designed.

3) It seemed to you:)

Hi! Many emulators and devices for converting TAP to sound, make the pause between files too short. I added TZX folder to the ANP2_v1.6.1 archive, try to get the download file from there.

Hi! You can use another emulator that is more compatible with real hardware.

The game does not work in newer versions of CSpect because bit 2 of register #22 does not turn off the original ULA interrupt. That's the main reason. In the old version of CSpect V2.12.36 this works properly, you can play the game in it.

The second point is related to copper co-processor, sound effects are not playing correctly because of this. So far they are not reproduced correctly in any version of CSpect.

If you are using Spectaculator, remember to allow writing to a floppy disk.

minor changes that improve overall performance

Just checked in Spectaculator and Fuse, I have everything working correctly, levels and ending are loading.

Thank you!

In trd and next versions password is not needed, because after passing the level the game saves state to disk, so you can continue the game from the same level after turning off the computer.

Yes, that's right, because you don't enter the password to "load" the desired level, but to "skip" the level (don't forget you're dealing with tape) i.e. first you enter the first password, load the second level, and enter the second password, and load third level.

This is a problem with emulators. It works without problems on real hardware.

Can you try another video mode with 50Hz please?

Fixed it in version 1.2

Hello! Make sure that there is a "data" folder on the SD card next to the .nex file.

You can download the Windows version on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2267170/
