Notes

Known ErrorsThe original release has the following problems: <UL><LI> The 48k version crashes after loading level 2;<LI> The 128k version has incorrect data in level 3, so the platforms become invisible and it's impossible to get any further.</UL> The Erbe Software re-release is okay and doesn't have these problems.
