It's working fine, with sounds enebled, but: you must mount the \talosv\ folder directly as C in dosbox.
Meaning: if your game is stored as c:\oldgames\talosv\ your lines must be: mount c c:\oldgames\talosv\ vig1 [Edit] If you have a C mounted in your dosboxconfig you simply can umount it with: mount -u c: before mounting talosv as C:

That's peculiar. My copy is working fine without that.

Now that's what I get when I use my normal mount:
I must run it with e:\games\talosv\ mounted directly as C: BTW, the screenies used on the game sheet are still in the download.... ?

So we have to fight a sociopath at the end?

Finally got around to playing this, what a disappointment.
Quickly it becomes obvious this is a crap amateur Super Metroid clone made by someone who came close but didn't quite "get" how to make a good game. A lot of cheap unavoidable damage. One enemy even has homing missiles which go through walls and cannot be destroyed. Foreground/background colors are not contrasted well so it's difficult to tell what you can/can't jump on. Easy to get totally stuck within minutes and need to start again. The first boss is the easiest enemy in the game so far. After you leave his room, there is a tougher enemy who keeps knocking you back into the door so you can't easily exit. At this point I gave up. If you want more Super Metroid, this isn't it. Try the other Metroid games on GBA or a SNES ROM hack. Rating: Thumbs down. |
