Oh my friend; again check my collection that you have

Edit: and I even put all levels / sub-sections in so that you select anywhere to play in the whole game...

I thought there was no PORTING RTG on Lemon!
As there are so many that can be included in the catalog on LEMON.

Why would that be exactly?

If you look at the search options there's definitely an RTG section:




Plus the Heart of the Alien port is already on there so...

To be honest, we are mostly oriented on OCS-AGA so there is really many games for other specifications missing. But this one I would like to add because it is a recent game and we want preferably complete the 2020 list.

Indeed...
So it would be better to put them all in, otherwise you will do half the job.
There are ports of

DIABLO
CAVE STORY
HYDRA CASTLE LEGEND
KOBO DELUXE
MINI SLUG

All by the same author of this Heart of the DARKNESS!

I read somewhere, but can find it now, that it's 3 levels and they are very different from the Arcade version.

Just wish there was a way to start in "Fullscreen" so I don't need to press <F10> when playing... small things though, so no big deal

Edit: ah, there it is:

It is a game composed of 3 Missions (each mission divided into a number of levels). The first mission is similar to the series, then it forks and offers some refreshing gameplay (find the submarine in mission two if you can!). But first mission alone will not be easy to complete!

The issue is that when quickly pressing <Fire> button, more often than not, it charges; as if you've held down the <Fire> button.

It's especially bad when playing from keyboard; but slightly better when using a joypad.

It makes the game quite hard...

Just wondering if the code for the "charge fireball" could be made a second longer; as this would probably address the issue?

Hi Art,

Any chance you could fix the above at some point?

Not sure but I could make Mini Slug start in fullscreen by default.

I'm cool with Mini Slug Project as is to be honest.

The longer button presses for "charging fireball" regarding Heart of Darkness would really be much appreciated though if possible.

It currently makes the game very difficult.

Thanks in advance

I have here suddenly a strange problem using version 1.1.
After dying I have to enter the name with 4 characters, going on ok
the last character is deleted again?!? I cannot leave the menu.

Hello,

Heart of Darkness is opening in full screen, but there is a big border on the right side.
I tried everything, from ModePro to changing config and setting up special screen modes, nothing work. Do you have a full screen on a real Amiga? I am using a V500+.
