CARE Request: Fly Harder CD32 GOLD

Hi there CARE team

The CD32 version of this great Thrust clone is flawed by a single oversight... In game you have to push up for thrust!

The red button is mapped to fire, and left and right rotate your ship, but this game would actually become playable on the console if thrust was instead mapped to another button.

In fact, IMO, the game would work best if thrust was mapped to the red button and fire was green or blue - that way you could rest the base of your thumb on the thrust button and tap fire with the tip of your thumb. However, red for fire and second button (blue) for thrust would still be workable (and lets be honest - anything beats 'up' on the joypad for tricky manouvering).

If someone could take a look at the executable on the ISO (I can provide the CD image later) and ammend it, I'd be happy to re-create the CD32 CD on your behalf and test it thoroughly. If a donation is required towards the project then I'll be happy to send a few ££s your way

In my opinion this workaround would be favourable over a WHDLoad fix, as the target device is a CD32 - the Amiga version is playable via keyboard anyway.

Thanks!
