G-Man Trainer (19??)

G-Man is a nice game from Code Masters. After I trained it providing unlimited time, fuel, missiles, and ammo, I managed to reach the end. Unfortunately in the final stages the game jams from time to time. However it's not the fault of the training code, later I was able to get to the end with the original version and the jams were there.

  • Trainer Intro. The whole intro runs on the screen (literally). This game was so huge that I couldn't find enough space to the trainer code and the trainer selection intro. The decompactor places the code onto the screen and then runs it. The code is as small as possible, yet it's colorful. I just absolutely love it.
  • Splash Screen. I also changed the splash image of the game to a self-made one. I just didn't like the original one, I think my creation reflects the game's mood better than the original one. Sounds weird that someone just cuts a part from an original game (and this image is a collage, is not entirely my design) but that was life.

I kept the Code Masters logo, the credit for the author, took the background and this little astronaut from somewhere and composed the splash screen you see here.

Oil Imperium (cracked version) (199?)

Oil Imperium is a strategy-business game, quite an interesting one. It was imported to Hungary by BCB+HSA (our duel was over by then) and it came with a pretty serious crack protection, it required the user to enter some words from the documentation. It was easy to get around the first protection, I presented a nice custom message to the user, but the second one (that asked the same question in the middle of the game) was harder. Anyway the game was cracked.

It was the second time I used the real three-color logo style and we coded a pretty nice color changing effect to demonstrate the values of the new style. The graphic analyzer is real cute.

Airborn Ranger (turbo version) (199?)

Airborn Ranger is a pretty nice intellectual commando game. We introduced turbo-loading support into the game to reduce load-time of missions, etc. In the original version it took ages to load a mission.

The intro is nothing special.

C64 Corner

I don't remember exactly when I had my first encounter with the Commodore 64, neither the day when I finished my first program on that machine. But I'm sure that some months later I was programming the 6510 processor in assembly and I was drawing logos and character sets to please my creative instincts.

A year ago (1999?) I ran into a C64 emulator for the PC, the shareware CCS64 of Per Håkan Sundell. While playing the old games like "Revs Simulator", "Katakis", "Le Mans" or "Archon" I realized that somewhere in a drawer I still had my Commodore floppy disks. I borrowed a 1541 II floppy drive and a serial cable and copied all the disks' content into D64 images.

To view my Commodore 64 products I highly recommend the shareware CCS64 emulator of Per Håkan Sundell. Of course, a real C64 is the best way to experience the touch of the late eighties, early nineties. Visit the CCS64 Home to get the installer.
