additional information
info 0.35b12 [Leandro Dardini, Mirko Buffoni]

SETUP:
  • Press P2 START to skip the dipswitches menu.
WIP:
  • 0.124u3: Nicola Salmoria fixed sprite overdraw mode to match Mutant Night movie.
  • 0.122u7: Nicola Salmoria added proper computation of sprites to be drawn taking into account double size sprites. This fixes sticking shots in Mutant Night without need for a hack. Fixed sprite overdraw mode, in attract mode, when the big ship is firing the other sprites no longer leave trails and at the end of a level the screen is slowly filled with balls and then slowly cleared to begin the following level. Same effect in the death sequence during attract mode. Fixed gfx1/2/3 rom loading. Added dipswitches 'Flip Screen' and 'Flip Screen'.
  • 0.89u3: Changed Z80 CPU2 clock speed to 5MHz.
  • 14th April 2001: Leandro Dardini submitted a fix for the Mutant Night lagging sprites problem.
  • 0.36b9: Changed clock speed of the 2x YM2203 to 1.5MHz.
  • 0.35b12: Leandro Dardini and Mirko Buffoni added Mutant Night (UPL 1987 (Kawakus license)).
  • 29th April 1999: Mirko Buffoni sent in a Mutant Night driver.
LEVELS: 31 (must be finished 3 times)
