like dickys diamonds on the c64
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? |

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