Goldean Axe, C64 Version. Tape and Disk differences...

MazinKaesar · 16 January 2008, 13:58

I liked a lot this nice conversion, even if Amiga version was better (even than Megadrive one!!!). I had an original tape version of the game, and I remember that in the original disk version of a friend of mine there were not the last level with the last battle against Death Adder: after level 4, the disk version ended with the end sequence. The tape version instead was full, and included last battle.

Today, I searched the Net for a "full" d64 version of this game, but only I found versions without the final battle. Do you know if there's a full d64 version around?

Hi Mazin,

this should be the full version, release #127

The first tapes were sent out missing a level. Virgin Games corrected the bug, but it was too late as most groups did it a few days after the original release.

I reckon there was some people who did the version with all levels.
