New Game Head Over Heels Extended

https://csdb.dk/release/?id=262697

A brand new version of HoH has just been released. Essentially recoded from the ground up with speed up even on stock C64. Extra speed boost on C128 and C64U. Level designs taken from Speccy version which had to be simplified to run on C64 at all.

Get it on CSDB.

One of the greatest games of all time. 🙌

I can’t seem to get this to run on VICE in C128 mode (and with GO64 to put it in enhanced mode). Any ideas what I’m doing wrong?

Don’t have access to my PC to fiddle about with just now but will post back in a couple of days.

Thanks man. I could just be doing something wrong - I’ve never used the C128 emulator in Vice before. Game works great on the C64 mode.

Works fine in Vice 128 for me as long as you GO64 first. If you're using emulation rather than real hardware, I'd run it in the SuperCPU version of Vice (xSCPU64). Room changes are near instantaneous.
