Did you update the ROM files/Cores?
AFAIR there were some incompatibilities introduced later on; and there was a time, when it really wouldn’t run on hardware.
I can assure you it does run generally, but as the Mega65 is a bit of a moving target there are occasions when it doesn’t.
I’m currently not in reach of my Mega65, but I’ll check to make sure.
Thanks, I tried several different combinations of core and kernal rom. Currently on the core dated 23.06.22 with kernal rom 920377. Maybe I'll have to go back a few versions but then other stuff won't work again. Yes you are right the M65 is a moving target atm and once they fix one thing two others become broken. That might just be the case here too.
Nothing technical - just sounds awful - terrible composition, very messy and amateurish and not a patch on the original which only uses a single SID. But hey, that's just my opinion, perhaps others will like it.
I usually LOVE SID music, but music like this I would be turning off immediately and putting up with sound effects, again, just my personal opinion.
On a more positive note, the game looks and runs nicely and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated by new Mega65 owners (mine arrived yesterday ;) ).

This is great!! Thanks for giving the Mega65 some love!! Needs more great games :-) Can't wait to get the chance to try it on the real thing.
It might just be clumsy me, but this only works on the emulator.
Couldn't get it to run on the real hardware.

Ouch. The music is.....well..... not good. :(
How come? I think it’s decently made, and we’re using one SID for music and a second for the sound effects.
