Man...I *so* prefer my joypad to the friggin keyboard used by emulators! This game is really good. I agree with others about the enemies having different personalities. That adds a lot to gameplay...not that I've ever *seen* the second enemy! (see below) But there's a pretty bad timing issue, which makes the game impossible to play. I don't know the code at all, but it seems to consistently lose vertical sync on the 4th board, when the last block starts moving toward the board. It also does this when the player and the enemy move near each other, but that's harder to pin down. This is a major bug, a show stopper. Hope it's easy to fix! I'm using Qb202NTSC.bin, BTW. -Chris - Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
