I've only just tried out the game myself.
VERY VERY good indeed! Keep it up. And yes, it seems to be a conversion of a PopCap game, but which one? |

thank you very much, if any one of you has an idea why action replay is making problems, and why the highscore load/save does not work on a real c64, please contact me, i heard that i have to switch of sprites ... is it really that easy ?

What does this do, and isn't length $f8 a little long for the filename?
It seems that this bugs out with action replay. Changing the length to $08 works with it for me in vice.
Also you are only loading/saving small files for highscore an similar so there is no real need for a turbo.
Do a jsr $ff8a early in your program to restore the normal kernal vectors. This will make you independent of most if not all cartridges.

cool, thank you i will check that, and turning the sprites off would also be quite helpfull ?
what must i do to let the sound run smoothly while disc is accesed ? would it be possible in a easy way, or do i have to use some kinda irq track loading thing?
disc access will be optimized in means of if there is no change in highscore, no save operation will execute ;)
those routines above do save the username to a file on disk, there is another routine, similar to this one, the above routine is a copy of the original highscore save routine, i think i missed that file size thingy ... ;)
the highscore save routine generates a filename for each leveli do not care about which pet characters are used for it, but i am using 2 chars in the filename, HIGHSCOXX, the x is replaced with some identifier for level ... |

I don't remember if you have to with the kernal routines, but it's probably safer to do it.

You need irq stuff. Cadavers loader system will do it.
I don't think it's worth the effort though. It is much more portable without it.

Actually it's HIGHSCxxE in the version you uploaded first.
Btw, the string just before USERNAME is "S:HIGHSCORE". Is that correct, or are you scratching the wrong file? |

hehe, it feels a bit strange talking to people better knowing my own source ... hehe, but, thank you for your effort, and those loading/saving thingy is quite messed up right now, i will do a rework on these functions ...
again: in final version loading and saving will only be executed if there is really need to, so i do not mind music hanging ( i will save before music starts ;) )
is there a maximum filename length ( e.g. 8 chars ) for filenames on c64 ?
must sound weird to know so few about the c64 ...
but ... i am just programming this beautiful machine since one year, back in the 90's i have just coded for MC68000 ;)
but i will do continue, perhaps there will be another 1k game later this year ...

16 chars.

Not strange, you're doing great! Kernal routines and drive coding seems to be most peoples weak spots.
I'm impressed by the game BTW, fun to play! :)
