Christmas Gift Hunt =================== Introduction ------------ It's Christmas Eve, and Santa has flown into a severe weather system. The high winds have scattered his presents all over a small island, and now it's your job to help him find them all so he can get back to doing his job and save Christmas. Explore Felliblanch Island, and search for the 80 Christmas Presents. Avoid the evil snowmen, and look out for Jack Frost - he's the smartest enemy of them all. The game ends when you have found all of the scattered presents. Game Controls ------------- O - Left, P - Right, Q - Up, A - Down On the start menu, choose: 1. For Keyboard control 2.

A: A kid who got a ZX Spectrum + 48k in 1992, which may not have been the best timing ever given the collapse of the 8-bit industry, that was by then in progress but, he didn't mind too much as his first system was a wood panelled console and didn't have a keyboard to program with. Q: Have I seen this game anywhere before? A: From the start this has fully been intended to be a new title, despite the vintage of the 8-bit computers it is intended to run on. Q: Which version of AGD was used to make CHRISTMAS GIFT HUNT? A: Version 4.6. It's quite stable and AGD and the extra features of AGD 4.6 were appealing. Q. What is different about the ULA Plus version when compared to the standard ZX version? A. The ULA Plus version uses a clever technique developed by the ZX Spectrum community to give more colours than were on the original Spectrum hardware - up to 64 colours in total. Q. I'm stuck, are there any cheats? A. There are no built in cheats to find, sorry. Someone might well find a POKE some day. Q. Seeing as how Jonathan Cauldwell wrote AGD, any favourite games by the man himself? A. Haunted House - it was on one of the 1992 Your Sinclair covertapes and the graphics were lush. Also Albatrossity - it was the first game I ever completed every level of on the ZX Spectrum without pokes or a walkthrough.
