Wow, that looks really good!

By the way, on turboR it runs too fast because turbo mode is enabled…

I inserted a patch to fix it. Replace original PT3BASIC.BIN by the PT3BASIC.BIN below.

PT3BASIC.ZIP

I suggest to use Fire button to continue the game when player is dead. When we play with a joypad, press F5 key is painful in the long run. I also suggest not to save BASIC programs in ASCII code. It is slower to load.

Thanks for your feedback.

I am Dribol's Programmer and Graphist. In Oniric we are a two person team: Aldo from Buenos Aires (Argentine) and I, From Sevilla (Spain).

I'm going to translate the game to English as soon as I get some free time.

The patch is a great Idea, thanks a lot, GDX. I would like to load the PT3 player somewhere the player doesn't need to press ctrl too, but I don't know how to make it. Any ideas?

MSX Forever!

If onedrive not suitable try this AUTOEXEC.BAS:

5 POKE&HFBB1,1
10 SCREEN 0,,0: WIDTH 80: CLS: KEY OFF: COLOR 9,1,1: LOCATE 0,1
20 IF PEEK(&HFC4B) < 228 THEN GOSUB 50
30 COLOR 10: PRINT"DRIBOL IS LOADING..."
40 RUN"MENU"
50 PRINT"Press CTRL to reset the MSX until Beep!"
60 IF PEEK(&HFBE5+6) = 253 THEN POKE&HFD9A,&HC7
70 GOTO 60

(with it you can remove the POKE&HFBB1,1 into "MENU" file)

Thanks again, that is a very useful info.

I have been working in a english translation tonight. For now you have all ingame texts in English. Except Intro, Final and the Lateral Menu, because it are graphic-composed text. As soon as i have enough free time for this project i will try to remake them.

Game Controls (in english):

Quote:

Cursors or joy to move
F1- LOOK
F2- REPAIR
F3- USE
