Here's one I remember buying back in the day and
getting it home not knowing what to expect as I had
never heard of the software company, Pirate Software. I
was relieved to find that it was an okay budget game - if a little hard
- and took up most of my weekend trying to see the
ending - even trying my hand at hacking the game too.
Unfortunately it was not to be, and would eventually
require the expertise hacking of the great Martin Pugh (Pugsy)
to share a cheat or two that would allow me to play
straight through the game and see the end.
The game itself houses
quirky, and at time, basic graphics; some crisp and
clear sonix with some effective tunes, and all wrapped
up in a typical budget release package. So much more
could have been done to enhance this game, but as it
stands, it's an acceptable cheapie.
Finally! The end...
Nearly there!
One final wheelie...
Phew!
The End.
HOW WAS IT COMPLETED?:
Well... here's what Martin posted on our forum: I've
completed it, no point in sending the ending...you can
do it yourself with this rough and ready invincibility
cheat:
Code:
Rough and Ready Invincibility
POKE 51526,0 { > c946 0 }
POKE 51592,96 { > c988 60 }
Just enter the pokes
start the game, hold down fire and warp VICE to Level
14. Then just play level 15 at normal speed, easy peasy.
SO WHAT HAPPENS?:
Once you get to the end of level 15, a graphical
acknowledgement appears, which shows "THE END". Our
skateboarder then darts of the screen and pulls a
wheelie, at which point the ending message appears,
which reads: "CONGRATULATIONS FRIEND. YOU MANAGED TO
COMPLETE ALL THE LEVELS IN ROLLERBOARD." This is
accompanied by an ending tune.
