Kid Gloves info

Some info for Kid Gloves, garnished from the manual

Programming, Graphics, Music : Timothy Closs

SFX : David Whittaker

Published under the Millennium label by Logotron Entertainment LTD.

(C) Logotron Entertainmet/Timothy Closs (1990)

I've added most of the info, but left the publisher as Millennium. It seems that Logotron started to use the Millennium name as a label and then decided to change the name completely to Millennium. I'm not sure whether to try to capture this in the HOL...

I thought Logotron was a US company that released Amiga games here (often imports, like Archipelagos).

CodyJarrett · 23 March 2003, 11:54

No, they were UK-based.

Anyone have a retail copy? The only one we have has a bad protection track.

BippyM · 24 March 2003, 11:41

Have a look at the HOL info, I provided all scans and disks

fiath · 24 March 2003, 12:57

That is the compilation (Astra Pack) version and the budget version. I think we are after the official retail version, isn't that right IFW?

I am pretty sure I have the retail, so it certainly existed AFAIK, but my disk has a rotted protection track.

BippyM · 24 March 2003, 13:00

There are now 2 versions in HOL.. look at the second one

fiath · 24 March 2003, 13:01

You were too quick

I just noticed, but the other one looks like a budget release?

BippyM · 24 March 2003, 13:04

It is a budget release.. but surely that is better than nothing..

And maybe, just maybe the actual disk contents are the same as the full price, and you can repair the dodgy original ver you have?

fiath · 24 March 2003, 13:59

That very could well be the case, however you know how we are with authenticity.

Mind you, as we will release budget versions if there are significant differences, we would welcome getting a dump of it if we don't already have a dump of the budget version. I don't actually know, so I will look tonight if IFW doesn't jump in here before then.

I'll get back to you... Thanks very much for the help.

But we are still looking for the retail is anybody has it!

IFW · 24 March 2003, 14:14

Just dump it, I can see whether it is the same with the retail version or not.

fiath · 24 March 2003, 16:44

Okay, bippy, if you are still okay sending Menace over, please include this too.

Hopefully I will get your other disks off in the next days...

BippyM · 24 March 2003, 16:54

Hopefully I'll be able to get myself a 4Mb ramboard or accelerator soon and then I'll dump em myself..

I have a HD equipped 1200 now (Which I am Towering)
