Great, no copy protection on the patched earlier version.

It's a bit different - no multitasking (unlike 1.7), and some strange graphical "flickering" though the intro, which can be cured when the game starts by hitting space (bounce between normal and fullscreen, then repeat every so often). Looks almost like an interlace flicker, but worse, it's even visible through an Indivision or WinUAE. There's a Scoopex slideshow that exhibits the same behavior... only other place I've seen this kind of weird flickering.

Seemed to work very well, up until about an hour or so in when I went to save the game... it froze solid, *without* actually saving anything.

Might give it another go, it's damn nice, just frustrating that it crashes so nastily as soon as you get drawn in a bit. Maybe I'll try it with an '030 instead.
