Er... that's the beta version (with a different CRC32). Check the zone in a minute.

Why remove a link showing an adf and then put an adf in the zone... What would be the special reason ?

Nice one TCD delivers the goods yet again.

Is it just me or have they removed the 'no-go' content

Hmm. This version too looks like the same beta. Both versions "feature" the 63744 kB "ult" executable. (And the "Ultralame" volume label

)
Though CRCs of both "ult" files are different, modifications are rather minimal. That can't be a full version. My assumption is that the retail release was canned because it was stolen while still in beta stage and "cracked" by true masters-at-work. IOW, that's an unreleased game.

Exactly my thoughts and I forgot about the IPFs. Will try to remember it from now on

@andreas
mai removed the beta bit in the latest TOSEC. Maybe he can tell us why.

Of course i was not really sure about this, there was not really a proof, if it is really any beta.
As andreas mentioned both executables are nearly the same.
Then both sets are rather a beta or not a beta, i have removed the beta bit, maybe i was wrong and its really a beta and/or unreleased game.

TCD · 15 May 2010, 18:33

Okay, I see. Info on this one is quite sparse anyway. Hopefully someone knows anything about the game or coder that might help.

mike4466 · 15 May 2010, 19:00

The difference from the supplex beta one and the supreme version is the power ups.
I have got to level 8 so far,so all the levels seem be there all thats missing for me is the menu and music,so its not all that bad.

andreas · 16 May 2010, 23:21

Wow! Well spotted. I didn't play it that attentively enough to have noticed that, let alone so many levels ahead. Thanks for the good eyes.

mike4466 · 19 May 2010, 16:19

Ultraball update...
Well i have got to level 30

so if anybody wants to continue to see how many more levels there is i have put an ultraball save state in the zone.
Strange why the programmer did not put a menu on the game and music to finish it off.
