So everyone has heard of Jaws the movie, but did you
also know that there was a Commodore 64 game of the same
name? In fact - there were two very different versions
of Jaws for the Commodore 64, and fortunately this is
the better of the two.
Taking on the role of a
mini-sub captain, you have to guide yourself through
various undersea screens in search of the deadly shark.
Game play, graphics and sonix really complement each
other to create a pretty little package of a game. To be
honest, I hadn't seen or heard of this game before now,
but it's definitely a game I will comeback to time and
time again.
The End.
HOW WAS IT COMPLETED?:
Inge successfully hacked the ending using the following
method:
1. Start the game
(important that you start it first)
2. Alt + M for monitor (or freeze if you have a
cartridge)
3. Change the value of $16C3 to 0 to see the normal
Game Over screen.
4. OR change the value of $16C4 to 0 to see the
Ending screen.
5. Exit to the game.
SO WHAT HAPPENS?:
Once the game is complete, instead of seeing the usual
'GAME OVER' screen with Jaws, you get the same Jaws
picture but with the words 'FIN!' in his mouth. This is
accompanied by an ending tune, which is in fact the
standard title tune.
