I don't think it's possible to create a single .PRG file for this game. It contains several files that all load to the same address (except the last one)

Code: Select all

(cbm) file 0:*
LOADER (SYS850): PRG, size=69 bytes, start=$0352
STAGE1: PRG, size=4098 bytes, start=$1000
STAGE2: PRG, size=1026 bytes, start=$1000
STAGE3: PRG, size=4097 bytes, start=$1001
STAGE4: PRG, size=194 bytes, start=$033c
I think the loader file is used to fetch each one in turn

Code: Select all

(cbm) cat "0:LOADER (SYS850)" | dxa
        .word $0352
        * = $0352

l352    lda #$00
        sta $9d
        lda $ba
        sta l38e
        jsr l372
        jsr $1100
        ldy #$00
l363    dex
        bne l363
l366    dey
        bne l363
l369    jsr l372
        jsr $1010
        jsr l372
l372    lda #$01
        ldx l38e
        ldy #$01
        jsr $ffba
        inc l394
        lda #$06
        ldx #$8f
        ldy #$03
        jsr $ffbd
        lda #$00
        jsr $ffd5
        rts
l38e    .byt $00,$53,$54
        .byt $41,$47,$45
l394    .byt $30

This game has intrigued me for a long time. It reminds me of The Pit and Zorgon's Kingdom (though I'm sure it plays very differently!).

I was just finally going to test it and now see that I only have the tap-version. Where did you find the D64?

I'll post the .d64 file later, I think it's on the FE3 files, looking at the files that are levels so they must load them every time you complete a level,so if you complete level 2 and die you might have to load the first level again?
Cheers for the reply about the memory locations 😁

I've managed to dig out the .TAP version of it (untested), if anyone is interested?
