The Adventures of Captain Comic -- world map

This is a lazy dump, and I don't plan to update this repository further once I've released it.

When she was young, my best friend played a shareware game from 1988 called "The Adventures Of Captain Comic", created by Michael Denio. Despite many many hours spent trying to beat the game, she was stuck and never managed to finish it.

For her birthday, I decided to partly reverse engineer the game in order to figure out how the game could be beaten. The result of this effort is a map of all levels in the game, showing where all items are placed and how to navigate between the levels using the doors in the game.

In addition, I've created 2 special versions of the game (in tarballs), placed on an installation of recalbox on a raspberry pi that I gave to her as part of her birthday present, to be played on her birthday.

  • a version where the first level shows some birthday wishes as part of the first level
  • a "god mode" cheat version where the player can not die

Disclaimer

I assume I am not breaking any copyright here. This game is shareware and has been abandoned for many years. I've tried to contact the author to give a donation (and also record a message for my friend), but was unable to locate him. The game is up for download at https://archive.org/details/TheAdventuresOfCaptainComic as well, so I assume it is not a problem to place it on github.
