Sounds to me that SOMEBODY totally forgot to read the small print!!! 🤨🫵⚠️🕹️😉

Fair to say that this project is now "on"! It's called Undrium, and is a tribute to Ultimate's love/hate classic, Underwurlde. 658 platforms are in place and tested, and that's nearly half of the map. Still pondering game ideas.

Underwurlde was, I think, the first mega-maze game I played. And it was Sabreman, who is just adorable. I played it a ton on my friends Speccy, played it more on my C64, and then played it even more after getting the Zzap!64 map. It was beautiful in its cruelty. Up 5, fall 10. 😮

Ah yes.. I had a lot of fun with this game.
Cruel though it was.
Underwurlde.

I'm wondering if it could be Underwurlde?
(That's the first thing that comes to mind, anyway.) :)

Yup. Exactly right.
Ultimate made some games I really loved on the C64: Underwurlde, Staff of Karnath, and Entombed. 🤔 But that's about where it stops for me.

That totally reminds me of the shots in Ultimate Play the Game's "Underwurlde". 😁

Huh.. even with collecting Zzap!64 since issue 1 (..starting to lose interest when the Amiga branding was added), I don't remember anything about these trophies. That's quite cool. I really liked Karnath, Underwurlde, and Entombed (despite how cruelly hard they were.) 😁

Hmmm.. 🤔
Manic Miner, Auf Wiedersehen Monty, Jet Pac, and Underwurlde were the ones I kept playing .. and playing .. and playing. 😁

I really did like Underwurlde. 🤔 Now I realise how absurdly cruel it was. But back in the 8-bit era, I think we'd all kinda built up a tolerance for having the pixels beaten out of us. 😁
