additional information
info 0.34b4 [Brad Oliver]

WIP:
  • 0.87: Vernimark fixed Mr.TNT colours (verified to use pacman proms). Added Pac-Man color proms ($0, 20).
  • 0.75u1: Added new gfx1/2 roms and prom ($0) to clone Gorkans [Tomasz Slanina].
  • 0.75: Added clone Gorkans (Techstar 1983). Gameplay works but there are no good gfx roms.
  • 12th October 2003: Tomasz Slanina sent in a driver for Gorkans, it's working except graphics are bad because graphics ROMs are missing.
  • 0.34b4: Brad Oliver added Mr. TNT (Telko 1983).

history Gorkans (c) 1983 Techstar.


Move along lines, erasing them as you go, to collect flashing or spinning items. If you collide with one of the yellow dots that are moving around erasing lines or if you end up at a dead end with nowhere to go, you lose a life. You cannot go back, only forward.
