well thats the real bug your not supposed to be able to use ESC, it acts as an emergency quit should the game hang or something. the control setup should not have allowed the ESC key to be mapped to a control.

If you remap that button to something other than ESC the issue should resolve. I'll have to look as to why you were allowed to map it in the first place though.

I know it's wierd but sometimes I could press ESC just by put down the keyboard to the desk.

I use a cordless keyboard.

Also I was not aware ESC would quit the game until now.

Well its more of a left over development thing. there is no documentation on it, its just kind of there.
You probably noticed it in the shops cause they were one of the last parts I finished. And just never removed it.

The game quits fo no reason again by pressing Enter.

I didn't touch ESC key.

I think it happens when pressing Enter quickly.

Arrow keys to move the character.

Select = B

 Start = A

      B = Enter

      A = Spacebar


Still happens here in the menus.

I can not get it to do any kind of out of place exit with my hardware, but I tweaked a few more locations in the code. see if its still exiting, if so I'm not sure.

Have you had any issues selecting items or spells within the menus, like has it skipped over things when using the arrow keys?

if that is the chest I think it is, you probably picked up the Death Necklace. which is a random chance item, shows up like 1 in 18 chance. its only purpose is to sell for like 1300g. why it didn't show I'm not sure. Did it add to your inventory? That chest's normal contents are 120g.

Hey thanks a lot for actually playing the game, your the first one to report any of these issues.

It's the first time I opened this chest.

Nothing is added to the inventory.

I also noted there are some differences between DW64 and Nes with tiles/backgrounds.

It reminds me DW2 from NES.

Some musics in your game are in stereo.

Is NES a stereo system?


Note: I can't put images in my post. :(

Actually, if you looked at your ITEMs you would see a glitch in the item window, that is from the 'invisible' item. Apparently for what ever reason the Death Necklace isn't being loaded in to the item array. or the index is wrong.  You can sell the blank item for 0gp too!

The tiles and sprites are what I saw playing the game on the original NES console.(image below) Which I believe is different from the Japanese(and perhaps other regions) version of the game, which were simpler. For whatever reason.

As for audio, its a clone not an emulator. So all the audio is recorded 2 channel, 16bit, 44100hz. I believe the original hardware was Mono 8bit, at something like 11025hz(or less?).

Several bug fixes thanks to Robin.
and a couple of others.

Probably the last update for 2021. but who knows.

No major changes so previous saved games are still good, if you have opened the 'blank' chest you will need to sell the 'blank' item from your inventory to free the space up.

Still some graphical bugs(main one is the background fails to black out in dungeon when monster flees, displaying monster over dungeon).
