Found -> Drip (Was: like dickys diamonds on the c64)

27 May 2003, 19:28

ok - its an age old style of game but i can't for the life of me remember the original. only one i can think of is the above on the old c64 cos my bro tried to say dickys diamonds was much better!

i think it was a PD game, where you had to colour pipes by running over them with your character. you could click the fire button to jump from the pipe down to the next one i think - and there were clouds or other bad things floating across the screen which changed the pipes back to the original colour, and killed you if you ran into them by accident. i remember the music being really cool (ok it was a long time ago so no guarantees!) - and thats one thing i would *love* to hear again, even if its not on the game itself...

anybody got any ideas?

just out of interest, do you know what the original of this genre of game was? sure i know it but it was bugging me...!

An ancient game called Paint or Painter was quite similar. I remember having it on my Speccy.
