I want to write more about oldschool game ecologies and what we might learn from them now, but just wanted to share this screencap I just made:
It feels a lot different when you managed to do it on your own (especially having to fight with a bat to prevent it from ruining your chance. That microdot is hard to find if you drop it!).
Here's a map by Maurice Molyneux on how to do it (along with some other useful tips):
And here's one place to try it out.
My current record for level 3 difficulty with both difficulty switches on A is 783rd place under "ahooded." Open challenge for someone to beat my time, and it won't cost you a cent.
I may be into oldschool on a nostalgia level, but I've actually got some decent replay value from this. It's too bad I never had it as a kid; I think this and Combat are now my favorite Atari 2600 games.
Anyway, anyone particularly proud of any Easter Eggs they found, either through instructions or completely on their own?
