Tut Tut port for RC2014
A downloadable game
Tut Tut is becoming a modern classic, now available for numerous platforms including ZX Spectrum, ZX81, PET, Vic20 and Jupiter Ace / Minstrel 4.
This is my port for RC2014, Classic or CPM with TMS991A video card. Also optionally AY sound module and RC2014 joystick module. With David's guidance I've ported to this platform and added suitable title music, sound effects and musical stings. This version also includes the level code functionality which was introduced by Dave Curran in the Vic20 version (codes are the same) and some recent new levels. This game has 40 levels plus a 'hidden' treasury which you may access if worthy.
Part puzzle and part action, the game transports you to Egypt in the 1920s. There are stories of mummies strangling would-be tomb raiders. Such nonsense can't possibly hurt you, or can it?
----------------------------------------------
Version 1.1 superseded version 1.0 and added enhanced level data with multiple wall tiles per level, smaller binary and joystick support (port 1)
Version 1.2 replaces v1.1. Fixes some issues with joystick support (for users without joystick module). This has necessitated the addition of a 'keyboard / joystick' selection screen. Also fixes some issues with the video chip port detection. Now runs fine with the video module on port $98/$99 or 08/09 ('pro' or above RC2014s) or on port 08/09 (classic or mini RC2014s with cpm upgrade)
Version 1.3 fixes a bug with the air bar, makes certain sfx asynchronous, so there's no longer a tiny pause when you collect treasure or push a block, and styles certain text in bold as per the Speccy version
Version 1.4 adds a screen to the attract mode which explains how to start game with keyboard or joystick and how to enter a level code if you have one. It also fixes a small problem with the bracelet freezing enemies for too long. This port now freezes enemies until the next air bar drop which is in line with other versions.
