Super League 2021: Round 13 - Twinworld & Rubicon
Twinworld: Land of Vision [lemon] [hol] Collect 23 fragments of the magical amulet and defeat the evil druid Maldur. When you are completely stationary pushing down will destroy specific platforms. Pressing down also enters caves and doors. Spacebar changes the weapon you are using. If you have a flute you can call a merchant twice, by pressing 'H', and buy items using your points. ESC sacrifices a life. Rubicon [lemon] [hol] In the year 2011 a Soviet nuclear powerplant disaster creates an island full of mutants. You must go in and disarm the remaining nuclear materials. Select your weapons using F1 - F7. To arm a weapon, have it selected before collecting the power up item. Round Ends: 23:59 (UK Time) on Saturday 13th November 2021 Rules:

Here are the checkpoints for level 1 of Rubicon. Spacebar pauses the game. It is best to take a screenshot at these checkpoints but you can take one anywhere as long as it is obvious what part of the level it is.
Start = 40,000 (yes you get 40k just for starting the game) Dragon Pits = 80,000 Fire Back Dino = 120,000 Dragon Boss = 160,000 For a frame of reference here are screens of the start of each level. You can take the screenshot at any time but then risk losing lives and getting less score. Example score. If you reach level 2 with 4 lives. 200,000 + 40,000 = 240,000 2. Castle 3. Snow 4. Forest 5. Cave 6. Underwater 7. Lab C. Final Boss Dead Last edited by Biscuit; 05 November 2021 at 18:35. |

Some notes to shots: You have 3 shot types, selectable with space. Switch between yellow and green in the normal play to use them up equally and use blue mostly for the dragons. You can fire a high-shot when you press fire at the top point of a jump. You can use a down-shot when you press down and fire in the second, falling part of a jump. |

Yes, the balls / shots have different strengths - red being the weakest, green twice as good as red, and blue even stronger. But the supply of blue balls is very limited, so use it only for the dragon / bothria and tricky passages.

As for Level B, you can either enter the door at the start and do a difficult lava jump, or get the key, defeat the "dragon" and enter the locked door. I find the latter less difficult than the jump. |

Thanks for the investigation Giro.
The links in the first post have been updated with your recommended adfs. Looks like it's the same crack but possibly a different dump. |

I continued to play Twinworld in the last days, and managed to complete it.
I bought 2 extra lives for a total of 600 points, but 10 years ago my highest score was about 51 k, so there is room for improvement. In the later levels, you must look very carefully before moving, as traps and the "two-eyed snappers" are spreaded widely. 47.080 |

The bug still present in every file of Rubicon (adf & hla) Isn't depend from configuration of WinUAE etc... Same bug happened with AmigaLive during his stream on Twitch. I was playing Rubicon and crashed Many guys in this competition didn't see this problem cause it appears only in the last 2 levels In you play 10 times, in 8 you got bug, and in 2 (if you're lucky) no bug Issue happens especially when you change weapon (in the last 2 levels) but sometimes happens even you do not pressy any Fnumber button In the last 24h, I investigated about this issue , talking with Mr.AmigaLive He played a lot using save state after level5, to see better if we can avoid the bug of last levels BUT still crashing I felt was right to inform you about the RubiconBug. I'll let you know if I have new update about it |

Well played Harry. Don't think I'll find the time to get anywhere near that. It's harder than it looks.
I had to update the rules for Rubicon because I'd stupidly not put any rules about the final screenshot for beating the game. My mistake and only noticed when Giro submitted his score. Updated now. Basically, screenshot the dead final boss for your lives count and completion bonus. |
