I'm pretty sure CPC fanatics will tell you the 464 version of Manic Miner by Software Projects is the best one available, but I just don't know. Haven't tried it. Perhaps they are right, perhaps not. Then again, the CPC had always been easy to port for from the Speccy and also sported some rather powerful hardware too, so I guess Manic Miner CPC could be a great update to Matthew Smith's classic. Anyway. Better try it for yourselves. This Manic Miner CPC 464 auction should help quite a bit. Seller ships worldwide.
Oh, and you can find out more on Manic Miner CPC here. For a freeware, pretty faithful and visually striking version of the game try Manic Miner PC by retrospec.

ReplyDeleteYou don't? But, that's the greatest (possibly second greatest) platform game ever!
