Memory game: MeMO 3.14
Simone 'saimo' Bevilacqua has released an update of his memory game MeMO. His game is based on the classic memory card game but in his port two payers can simultaneously play for getting the best highscore. MeMO requires a 68020 processor and the ECS graphic chip. Changes of this release:
- Adapted to Amiga CD³²: added saving through nonvolatile.library when writing to disk fails; allowed pausing, aborting and name entering by means of the joypad; added CD ISO image to distro packages.
- Reworked controls (see manual).
- Added controls information to pause screen.
- Added cards numbers to the back of face down cards (which helps with matching cards).
- Straightened cards corners, to match better the overall sharp look of graphics.
- Fixed bug that caused the EXTRA JOYSTICK option to be highlighted shortly after returning from the "about" screen.
- Made several optimizations.
- Adapted to and built against latest custom framework (which makes startup and cleanup more robust and has a couple of bugfixes).
- Fixed/improved/added outer antialiasing of graphics on all cards (trying to stay faithful to the original design).
- Touched up a few cards.
- Reduced and partly eliminated bass notes clicking.
- Made various other minor changes.
- Improved manual.
