Fixes

Keyboard is no more working after ESCAPE quit
Game Over music missed final note

Happy testing!

Just played through this; didn't encounter any issues

Interesting statistics:

From start to finish: roughly 1 hour 15 minutes in single player.
That's: 75 minutes, so 4500 seconds; so roughly 45 seconds per level.

Damn you're fast!

Do you happen to have a save state just before picking up a potion? If yes, could you try the following to reproduce the bug I reported here:
http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=...&postcount=451

Let player 2 enter the game
Pick up the potion with any player
Let player 2 collect more bonus items than player 1

And the bug from level 33:
http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=...&postcount=453
Walk straight on and let yourself fall through to bottom without touching an enemy, then the top right enemy will jump into the wall and is stuck there from then on (sure, it's not THAT severe a bug).

And the big cake bug:
http://eab.abime.net/showpost.php?p=...&postcount=452
Big cakes seem to ignore bottom tiles, like in level 26. Don't know if you have a save state to reproduce this one...

Unfortunately not, though I did pick up some potions when playing... I take save states every 10 levels; and usually ones at the tricky levels i.e. 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100.

I've put in The Zone! if that's any help.

Fixes

Keyboard does again not work on faster CPUs (the joys of version control..)
Player 2 Score of 10.000 in potion screen is corrupted
Collecting final extend letter in potion bonus round plays wrong music
'Zen chan' enemy can get out of bounds while jumping (level 33)

I hope this is the last update

..

Thanks again to all the brave testers here!

Happy playing!

...I don't know if I can bring myself to play through again.

I'm all Bubble Bobble'd out

Pink, could you please set a solid link to the latest file and only replace ADF in it? Not to change URL with each new build? Please please.

Or set a small dedicated webpage within abyss site with the valid link.

It's a bit late to be asking this now; the game is almost complete.

What's the big deal anyway? pink always provides the correct / latest link with new versions.

Ok, so if your posting on another forum or whatever you just need to update that post... or point to this main thread.

I think you have done alreay A LOT of testing, and always excellent feedback. More then anyone can ask for.

Yes, I have linked some information to the first post of this thread where is always the fresh link, problem is I also inform about Tiny Bobble in some non-English forums. And after I returned from a week vacation I discovered there was almost ten game updates

BTW I encountered a bug in Level 59 today - I flooded the area with water that killed all the enemies, but I was not allowed to proceed to the next level. Even Baron von Blubba that appeared and killed me didnt solve it.

Thanks for the feedback. I tried to reproduce the above but the next level came up as it should be. Did you try in the latest build RC3 or RC4?

Predseda · 23 August 2020, 19:49

It was actually level 59, but I suppose I do not know if it was the LATEST RC, played it in Amiga event hours ago. Ignore my report, it is possible it was some earlier build, can not guarantee.

Don't downplay the time and good will you invested, it was a big help.

And i appreciate a lot that you were always friendly. That kept me motivated to finish all up.. which is usually the hardest part.

This issue should have been fixed.

Predseda · 23 August 2020, 20:00

Also I can confirm Tiny Bobble works on A2000 (booting from floppy), only have some slowdowns.

Maybe the blue additional bonus points could be on the right, below the blue calculated bonus? I'm sorry, I already feel bad for reporting such a teeny weeny thing... sorry...

mrupp · 23 August 2020, 21:05

Question: I just played to level 20 without loosing a life, shouldn't there appear the door item to the secret room? Or is something additional needed to trigger this?
