A small dev team have worked hard on this, and we hope you will enjoy it :D

If you do, please vote for us and show your support for Ultimate Amiga ;)

The game is PSPUAE compatible (Original core only) from ADF. RISS to follow over the xmas break.

From the Readme;

Coded using AMOS Professional
Music salvaged via Octamed Soundstudio

Based on the original MB 'Simon' Game

Gameplay
~~~~~~
Syman is a simple and fun memory game for all the family!

Playable by up to 4 players simultaneously using the parallel port joystick adaptor.
3 different Gameplay Modes

Additional
~~~~~~
Due to the limited time of the competition, although the game is kickstart 1.3 compatible, the game (just about) requires 1.5 meg.
Apologies to CD32 users, as a keyboard is still need for menu options.

These will hopefully be fixed in the future :)

you can keep the prizes Mike, i have good pads and lots of copies of Diggers already!

Post by: mihcael on February 01, 2010, 12:44:57 PM: Pads would be handy, but the floppies and game are no use to me! (unless they can be sold?) Would it be better to forfeit those prizes?
