Hello Windigo!
A question - when I start the new game all I get is the GUI with flashing joystick and a beating heart - the play area is black and the game doesn't react to any joystick movement in neither port 1 nor 2, is this normal and I just don't know how to start or is something glitching up? 🤔
I've found the problem - seems the game is not compatible with DolphinDOS kernal (to speed up the disk drive).
When used with DolphonDOS, after selecting "new game", instead of "a week ago..." There are couple of color flashes (white, red, cyan) and then the frozen GUI with black game area appears, and the music is not playing, just the few notes then silence.
Hope it helps.
I'm not familiar with DolphinDOS and just looked at the description. We use almost all of the C64's memory for code and data. Perhaps the expansion also requires some RAM, and that might be causing a collision. But even without a fast loader, Evil Spirit's loading times should be very reasonable. However, I'll keep it in mind and perhaps include it as a possible technical issue in our manuals in the future. Thanks for sharing the problem and the solution!
