---|
Developer: Taito This game has uncompiled source code. |
It's Space Seeker! Join plucky space captain Chet Seeker in this genre-shifting, space-shooting action game, as he deletes temporary internet files and half-finished anime torrents from the hard drive of Taitooine!
Unused Graphics
Graphics for this odd winged enemy are loaded in the cockpit shooter sections, but it never appears anywhere.
This thing is loaded too, whatever it is. This is its only frame of animation.
Filler Text
Some uncompiled code appears as filler text. Unusually for an arcade game, the text is found in the graphics ROM! Code starts at 2580, and appears to be an early version of what appears at main CPU ROM address 202F (which makes fewer function calls):
' IN MARU CALL DSP CALL PLAYER CALL PFL CALL FOX CALL FOX2 CALL JACAL CALL JACAL2 CALL WOLF CALL WOLF2 CALL FLY CALL FLY2 CALL FLY3 CALL RADAR CALL BASE CALL CBA CALL DBA CALL BSCOT CALL SPLY CALL BSPC CALL HIT CALL EARIA CALL TSOUND NOP NOP NOP POP Y POP X POP H POP D POP B POP PSW EI RET OS: ;******************************** ;* OS: * ;* 0(Y):COIN
To do: Really an early version of the final code? |
Note: this code snippet does not use Zilog assembler syntax, but the CPU is still a Z80. The POP instructions are all 16-bit pops, and PSW corresponds to af; in effect, the end of the code is, in Zilog syntax,
pop iy pop ix pop hl pop de pop bc pop af ei ret
