Hotblox Tetris Game - Cannot get past Level 2 due to a Game-breaking Bug of some kind

Amiga600 · 10 May 2024, 19:53

I have come across Hotblox, and you can clear both Level 1 and 2, it will then go to Level 3, when almost instantly, you will lose all your lives and Game Over appears, I have tried several times and the same thing keeps occurring, so I am not sure if this is a Game Bug in the Game itself, or something else

If this is indeed a Game breaking bug or perhaps speed-related (which I think it is) perhaps it could be wrapped in WHDLoad with a Speed Limiter added in some way

I have uploaded the disk in the Zone if you can help in this matter
Many Thanks as always

I made it to level 4 with the TOSEC adf.
In the Zone.

Well that is the same version (based on file sizes etc), and further testing shows it requires Kickstart 1.3 it seems to fully work - even wrapping in a Generic KS1.3 causes the same bug as described in the first post

So this is another "Must have Kickstart 1.3" before I will work correctly type Game, so I will add it into the Kickstart 1.3 side of my Games Collection

Thanks again
